Sunday, September 30th, 2007
A few months ago I stumbled onto http://www.infidels.org/. It is a site dedicated to atheism, with the goal of taking out Christianity. I discovered the site as I was just beginning to understand the plans atheists have against Christians. I was shocked by their content, and hatred. I was shocked by their hatred for God.
I [...]
Growth is continuous if you allow it
Thursday, September 27th, 2007You asked, ‘Who is this that obscures my counsel without knowledge?’
Surely I spoke of things I did not understand,
things too wonderful for me to know.” - Job 42:3
Unless you have lived in a hole your entire life, more than likely you have encountered someone who thinks he or she knows just about everything and is [...]
Stop the Abuse
Wednesday, September 26th, 2007Blogcatalog.com is inviting bloggers to participate in their Bloggers Unite “Blog Against Abuse” campaign. They are asking bloggers to post articles today, pleading for a stop of abuse.
This is a timely topic for me, because two days ago I read this article Jeannie Babb Taylor: An open letter to Christian pastors. Her message plagued my [...]
The Mommy Wars
Monday, September 24th, 2007I have two sons, four, and 18 months. They do laundry. Both of them. Every morning after we’re dressed, and done with breakfast I say, “Who wants to do laundry?”
My 4 year old gets hysterical, “Laundry! We’re doing laundry. I love the laundry game!”
My 18 month old runs to our basement stairs and waits for [...]
Man’s Anger: Righteous and Raging
Sunday, September 23rd, 2007After I accepted Christ into my life, I quickly realized that I didn’t turn into the glassy-eyed robot pod-person I dreaded I would become. I am the same person I was before, but the more I let the Holy Spirit take control, the more I learn to be a better person. It’s not instant, it’s [...]
Evolution vs. Intelligent Design
Thursday, September 20th, 2007I have to be honest; I am not the most scientifically minded person. I will never be. God did not design my mind to naturally adapt to mathematical and scientific processes. In school, I loved writing, English, Art, and History. I love reading. I loved anything that dealt with human emotions. When it came to [...]
Amish Reach out in Love
Wednesday, September 19th, 2007October 2, 2006 was a tragic, terrible day. One deranged man boarded up an Amish school house, held ten young girls captive by tying them up at the blackboard. When the ordeal was over authorities discovered the abductor had intended to molest the girls before committing suicide. He did take his own life, and the [...]
Bad prose corner episode 1: What was I thinking?
Monday, September 17th, 2007I see the light coming up from the ashes
But it’s not for me.
It’s for the ones who already have it all.
Not for those with nothing but space for the light to fill.
They say we also have it all yet we have nothing but emptiness.
The void is growing larger with every passing second we are alone.
Soon [...]
Image through a Christian!
Sunday, September 16th, 2007You knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you, for I am wonderfully made. Psalm 139:13-14
My sixteen month old walked across the living room, lost in his world of constant exploration.
He didn’t notice me smiling at him.
He sauntered cautiously, raising one wobbly foot at a time. He stopped to pick up a [...]
Zontar, the Thing from Venus
Thursday, September 13th, 2007I like good movies. I like bad movies just as much. I am also a bargain hunter. So, one day last year as I’m wandering the aisles of my local Shopko, deciding what to spend my birthday money on, I spy the holy grail of movie value. The SciFi Classics Collection 50 Movie Pack Collection, for [...]
