RMS Titanic: Scheduled Arrival

via Choice Gleanings Daily Calendar

And the king said unto me, (the queen also sitting by him,) For how long shall thy journey be? and when wilt thou return? So it pleased the king to send me; and I set him a time. (Nehemiah 2: 6, KJV)


It was noon on April 10, 1912, when the Titanic left England for New York with 2,223 excited passengers. Tragically, their voyage came to a premature end when the ship sank on April 14. Many who thought they would arrive, did not. As you travel through life, you do not know when your journey will end. Make certain it ends in heaven. Repent of your sin and accept the Lord Jesus who said, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me” (John 14:6). —Arnot McIntee

Tomorrow’s sun may never rise, 
upon thy long deluded sight;
This is the time, oh, then be wise!

Thou would’st be saved, why not tonight? —E. H. R.

Bathroom Renovation: Toto Toilet Talk

  There are a thousand and one toilet models to choose from but in the end, I ordered a Toto Drake Toilet.  I think I made a wise choice: affordable, water saver, good looks, strong flush.

No way was I even close to choosing a top-of-the-line variety ( e.g. Neorest  by Toto).  It's on my bucket list though, hehehe.


The following are two instances when my choice of a Toto  toilet was affirmed.

1.  Actress, Diane Keaton, in The House That Pinterest Built (p 89), had this to say about toilet maker, TOTO:

One of the greatest features of toilet maker TOTO is the fact that you will be able to choose the kind of flush that you need to have.  The toilet will automatically flush for you, which is going to reduce the amount of germs being spread automatically, but you can also set it for a flush that is as low as almost 1 gallon.  It offers an unmatched level of water conservation, on the one hand; on the other, you can set it for a strong flush, with 1.6 gallons of water, for a heavy load that will not jam your system up either.  There are many clever new devices to make the visit more rewarding.  But there's something to be said for leaving the toilet simple.  Pass on the bells and whistles.  If you're in the market for a new toilet, my only advice is this:  Don't buy one with a set too close to the floor.  It's safe to say the higher the better.  

2. My Sis & her Hubby's home has 2 Toto toilets.  With many original artworks such as these scattered throughout their house and now even in their main bathroom -- of course, I wasn't surprised that they had chosen a good-quality TOTO  toilet!!

the evidence of things not seen.
