Here are another seven apps I really like and use constantly. Some are free and some are at a cost from .99 to close to $5. Let me know what apps you are using.
Known as the Statue of Liberty poem, New Colossus and its famous last lines have become part of American history. The photo of the plaque that is at the base of the Statue of Liberty is seen above:
New Colossus
Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
"Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she
With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
Jesus
Matthew 11:28-30 “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”
To start I am the grandson of immigrants. My wife is the daughter of immigrants. Honestly, how many of you look back into your past and see that you are the descendent of immigrants? Unless you are a pure blooded descendent of an American Indian tribe you are the descendant of immigrants. So why is immigration an issue in this country? You know it will once again be brought to the forefront of our conscientiousness through the rhetoric of politicians in this coming election year. Illegal immigrants have become the "scape goat" of people's woes. If it could be so simple. They are "law breakers!" But can a Law be unjust and even unrighteous?

I view apps from being an Apple MAC user since 1986, two years after the first MAC was released with that very progressive MAC commercial. Are they intuitive, are they elegant, do they promote productivity and are they fun? So here are some of the best apps that fit all these requisites.
EVERNOTE is a free multi-tasking note app that easily syncronizes between iPhone (smartphone), iPad (tablet) and my MacBook Pro (laptop computer). You can use for notes, recording meetings, add photo or insert a webpage or any other document for later reference or reading. You can add tags to the note, save in a designated folder and email to others. The only drawbacks are ads that are eliminated with the purchase app and notes are not visible when offline.
2Do is a purchased app and well worth it. You have a varity of options when creating a a todo list of any type. Tabs that enable you to quickly look at the tasks relating to the differnt parts of your life. Ability to attach map, phone number, catagory, email and more. What is also cool is the ability to sync with it on my iPad via my DropBox account.
TripAdvisor Is a wonderful app if you are regularly on the road or traveling to anywhere adn I mean anywhere. it gives a great varity of places to see, eat or stay by inputing a city or zip code or just use the button to find your current location. There are more than enough reviews of the places you seek with maps and other information. You can also give reviews as well. I even used in Japan. This app is free.
1Password is a must if you have multiple websites you have to log into with an ID and password. The best security is to use diverse passwords that include random numbers with upper and lower case letters and no one password the same. But keeping track of them is a nightmare. 1Password keeps track of your passwords and intigrates with your browser. You use one memorable and secure password to open the app to unlock access to all other passwords. The apps for iPhone and iPad are free but the main software is priced of $24.99 but you can try it out first for 30 days free.
If you travel regularly Kayak is priceless and is free. The apps work with the website kayack.com that is a search engine for travel fares. It searches all the airlines and the travel sites such as Travelocity and Expedia all at the same time so you can compare in one view rather than going to each individual site. They also have an app for keeping track of your flight status.
Olive Tree's Bible Reader is excellent and is available for the MAC computer. I realy like the design and ease of use. The KJV and other versions are free but commentaties and other Bible Versions will cost you. I have tried a lot of Bible apps and this one I love.
Can't say enough about Skype . This app is free to use to talk, text and video call between computers and mobile devises. It costs when you want to take further advantage of their service to make computer to land line or cell phone calls. it works across town or across the world and the quality is tough to beat. It is a great way to see the grandkids from a distance.

We have the most creative designer Father in the universe. We have been made after his image. So be creative, be a designer! Not for creativity's sake but for the LORD. He was creative for a purpose so likewise be creative for a purpose, to glorify Him, to reveal Him, to teach about Him, and to honor Him.
Jesus taught with an emphasis on simple. When I say simple I do not mean simple minded but simple in the sense of strait forward and direct, clear and precise. While the Pharisees encumbered the view and approach TI god by laws and traditions Jesus presented the truth at the lowest on denominator. Be like a child and enter heaven. Matthew 18:2-4 Then Jesus called a little child to Him, set him in the midst of them, 3 and said, Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven. 4 Therefore whoever humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
Love God & Love others Matthew 22:37-40. Matthew 22:37-40, Jesus said to him, You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. 40 On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets. Want to be first? Be a servant of all.
