People are so much better than well-kept lists.
Seek ye first the kingdom... and all the rest is there and will be there. He knew all along what you would need. Actually, he knew better than you. Surprise, surprise, surprise.
Do you believe that Jesus loves you... right now?
Hummingbirds live in the city.
Can you think of anyone more awkward than Abraham Lincoln? (Martin Luther doesn't count.)
Thoughts I heard a married man share with a single man: "Having kids is really a lot like getting a goldfish."
Said a 19th century historian: "It is neither blindness nor ignorance that ruins nations and states. . . Most humans recognize their ruin, but they carry on regardless." (Leopold von Ranke)
Said Paul: "For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven. . . So they are without excuse." (Romans 1: 18-20)
Settings don't eradicate temptation. Eve was in paradise. Jesus was in the desert.
John the Baptist: Jesus is better than ministry. My part in this is over, because there He is... and seeing Him, though I disappear, completes all happiness. (John 3:25-30)
Tomorrow's mercies... are brand new.

ReplyDeleteWe did see three deer today on our drive home, two were fawns with spots - I was thrilled and only wished Moriah was old enough to see and love them too... soon enough she will be.
I totally disagree with the idea that having a child is at all similar to a goldfish... for one thing a goldfish (in a baggie) is a bit easier to transport, Moriah and her travel gear do not make a light load - I did travel to kindergarten once with a real aquarium half full of water and about 15 goldfish splashing all over my car, that was dedication in teaching, crazy, and comparable to transporting an infant
that's all from me, let's chat sometime soon (is Thursday still a good night?)
