To all father's out there...

Happy Father's

Day!!

A few good reads

Miss Patriot has hit on very important subject today. Child molesters are the lowest of the low and they cannot be rehabilitated. I was watching something once where a man was being interviewed and he begged to stay in prison because he knew if he went back out into society he would molest again. Miss Patriot is right when she said

"THERE IS NO MOTIVATION FOR PEOPLE NOT TO COMMIT THESE CRIMES"

There needs to be a punishment so severe that these people don't want to do these crimes. It is sad that these molesters are now killing their victims so that they don't talk. There has to be something done about this. What? I don't know. The only thing I know to do is to pray for our children and pray that the Lord will deal with these people in His divine way.



Alyfireman has a good point. So many times I have heard people take what the Bible says out of context. To get a full understanding of the meaning of something you must look at it in context. It is kinda like a recipe. You look at just the sugar and think "Gee it looks like I am going to be eating nothing but sugar." But what you aren't looking at is the whole recipe. The bible is our recipe for life. It tells us what to do and how to do it just like a cake or cookie or any other recipe does.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 (NIV)

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 (NIV)

There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under heaven:

(2) a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,

(3)a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,

(4)a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,

(5)a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,

(6)a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,

(7)a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,

(8) a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.




Upon reading this I have no choice except to take HIM at HIS word. Someone recently asked about suicide and the "It wasn't their time" idea. I have to say that I believe this scripture when it says there is a time for everything under heaven. This kinda goes along with what I was saying about seasons. You don't plant your corn crop in the middle of winter when there is 2 feet of snow. You plant it in the spring. Hence there is a time to plant (spring) and a time to uproot (fall). So all of you who pass by and read this I would like to hear what you have to say about this scripture.

How pathetic!

I got this from Flannel. A sharpened screwdriver? I think not!

What Is Your Battle Cry?

Who is that, stalking over the tarmac! It is Juliet, hands clutching a sharpened screwdriver! And with a mighty roar, her voice cometh: "I'm going to pound you backwards in time!"

Seasons change

Seasons change and it seems that summer is coming slowly but surely. But there are seasons in life too. It seems like seasons are changing in that area too. It is funny how things change in life. Friends come and go, kids you once babysat turn into adults (yeah that made me feel old), priorities change, relationships change and all the while you are oblivious to some of it. Then one day it hits you and you notice these things. So as seasons change so must we. We tend to get caught up in the big things that the little things (which are some of the best things) go unnoticed. I have learned lately to pay attention to the little things. Take each day as if it were your last. Live like Jesus were coming today. There is a song by Steven Curtis Chapman that is called "Next 5 Minutes" and it has been a song that has stayed with me for the past few days. So now I will go and enjoy some little things.
