Dreams of a Three Year Old

God’s plan will succeed not because of us, but in spite of us.  Imagine a daddy working on a project with his three year old son, building a play house together.

Independence Day

July 4^th.  A day for family, picnics, and fireworks.  A day of rest, celebration, and joy.  A day of remembrance?

We celebrated July 4^th on a large field hosted by a local church.  A baseball field was surrounded by pristine hardwoods, with a small hill overlooking first base.  The small hill provided a superb view of fireworks set up in the middle of the baseball field.  The temperature was perfect; the swelling crowd waited eagerly for the sun to set and the fireworks show to begin.

Murder is Legal in the Name of “Choice” and “Freedom”

Laughter is good for the soul.  Our news would be hilarious if it weren’t so painfully true!

Incidents of social insanity have reached epidemic proportions to the point where it’s impossible to keep up with them.  They are literally consuming and destroying our society.  Some examples of our social insanity follow:

The gruesome facts are slowly trickling out from the Gosnell abortion-related infanticide trial in spite of an initial mainstream media blackout:

The trial judge summarily dropped three of the seven murder charges and five “abuse of corpse” charges without explanation. Apparently in the judge’s eyes dismembering a baby in the womb does not qualify as murder.

Scalia: When Did It Become Unconstitutional to Exclude Homosexual Couples from Marriage?

Laughter is good for the soul.  Our news would be hilarious if it weren’t so painfully true!

Incidents of social insanity have reached epidemic proportions to the point where it’s impossible to keep up with them.  They are literally consuming and destroying our society.  Some examples of our social insanity follow:

It is mind-boggling that a Supreme Court Justice would even be asking such a question.

Laughter is good for the soul.  Our news would be hilarious if it weren’t so painfully true!

Incidents of social insanity have reached epidemic proportions to the point where it’s impossible to keep up with them.  They are literally consuming and destroying our society.  Some examples of our social insanity follow:

• There are approximately 100,000,000 married couples in the United States.
• There are 76,000 married homosexual couples, representing only 0.076% of the total population.
• There are a grand total of 646,000 homosexual couples – married and unmarried – representing only 0.65% of the total married population.
• Approximately 7% of same-sex couple households who live in states permitting homosexual marriage have actually taken the opportunity to marry.

Sex, Students, and Teachers

Regrettably we hear news of yet another teacher accused of sexual misconduct in a public high school. It seems so commonplace and boring today that it doesn’t receive even a moment’s attention in the mainstream media.  It’s not even news any more.

But the real shocker starts in paragraph 7 and has nothing to do with the teacher’s case:

Halloween Costume

Since Halloween is coming up soon; this picture I received via an email forward is particularly appropriate and uplifting.

Awesome! Truly not as it looks…

Ladies and Gentlemen

God created man and woman, equal in the eyes of The LORD:

There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. (Gal 3:28)

Therefore stories like these are particularly repugnant:

The Mom Song

Must hear this song if you need a smile today.  We all – child, parent, or husband – can relate.  It’s terrific!

Relationships: Sup with Me

This is the last in a series of essays examining relationships.  The essays are intended to be read in sequence.  The first three were “Is There No Hope?”, “Earthly Relationships”, and “Relationship with Jesus”, respectively.

Jimmy and Suzie

Something – someone? – in the crowd caught his attention from the corner of his eye.  Instinctively he glanced to his right.  Jimmy’s gaze locked on target.  There was something special about her.  She was radiantly beautiful.  Perfectly petite, standing in her neat little dress, long blond hair falling onto her shoulders.  She was talking to a friend totally unaware of his presence, her attention riveted on her friend.  He tried to turn away and busy himself with his friends, but he could not ignore her.  It was as if he had bitten on a hook that caught in his heart and now she was just reeling him in.  Funny, she didn’t even know he existed – or did she?  He started to walk away, but after two steps he halted.  He had to at least meet her, and maybe get to know her.
