Here's What's Wrong With the World

My good friend, Nancy, was waiting for her mom at the hospital.  Instead of worrying about the situation, she took comfort in working on her bible study (Beth Moore's "Believing God").  A man sitting near her was apparently so disgusted with the fact that my friend had a bible with her, that he got up and moved away.

Were I in that situation, I may have suggested one of the following statements to the man:

1. "A good thing you moved, sir. Apparently, this spirituality stuff is contagious."

2. "Don't worry sir, you have a better chance of catching H1N1 than to be open-minded enough to read the bible yourself."

 3. "Sir, next time you watch the news and wonder 'what's wrong with the world,' remember this moment."

4."Honey, you can move as far away from me as you want, but Jesus is still sitting in your lap waiting for you to acknowledge Him!"

5.  Stick out your hand and scream, "God is who he says he is; God can do what he says he can do; I am who God says I am; I can do all things through Christ, God's word is alive and active in me.  I'm believing God...punk!"

...and that's all I  have to say about that.

ODE to my hot water

So!  I can not seem to convince the world that drinking hot water is good for you.  It can also be very comforting.  That's okay...go your way...I'll go mine...but I'm takin' my hot water with me!  And I'll speak my ode as I walk on...

NOOOOOOOOOOO Love for the Hot Water

Ohhhhhhhhh hot water...you make me smile
though most would say you are not in style

When things get tight and it hurts to sit
you loosen things up, and help me.. um... okay, next!

When my sinuses get clogged, you loosen the phlegm
and out shoots a big snot, the size of a gem

When my chest is congested and I can't breathe
I add you to gin and you aim to please

sro nowh i dlink you with gin 'n honnney
and get so dlunk my fliends think uhlm f-hunny

and now I sleep happily.....zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Q & A with God's Flock

I created a Q & A blog today... "Q & A with God's Flock"
The purpose of this blog is to publish Q&A interviews with people of all walks of life who follow God. If you would like to participate in a Q&A to be published on my new blog, please email me. Please include a brief description about yourself.

The new year is coming, and so is a new decade.  This past year, my learning was based on Neal Lazano's "Unbound."  It was powerful.  It helped me re-gain control where I hadn't even realized I lost it.  Now, I'm feeling better than ever, praise God.

In 2010, the learning tool begins with Beth Moore's "Believing God."  I think this teaching will help me reach higher rather than to settle.  We shall see...

Forgiveness

I am learning important things about forgiveness.
When I forgive someone, I feel free.

Recently I read the best quote out of a book entitled, "Something More" by Catherine Marshall.  The quote is  

 "he can be as wrong as wrong can be...I will NOT be the judge."

How powerful and freeing!  God is our judge.  We don't need to judge each other.  Instead of grudges, we can use that energy to pray.

Inspirational Music

John Waller's "While I'm Waiting" can be an inspiration in anyone's life.  This complete video was shown in the movie "Fireproof."

Fun in New Hampshire

We had fun in New Hampshire this fall.  I am grateful for the moments I spend with my son.
