We Are Not Alone



Great opportunities sometimes are blown
Trying to solve all our problems alone
We can cut out discord
When we go to the Lord
And get answers you may not have known

Random Act of Poetry™: Pleasing God

If to the Lord, you are looking to please
The best place is from on your knees
The conversation will start
When you speak from your heart
He will bless like a warm summer breeze

Study Benefits


When you study the Word of the Lord
Don't think you can ever be bored
Bring it in by the hour
It has life changing power
It's sharp as a two edged sword

Random Act of Poetry for Easter Sunday

The angel came to the Marys and said
Why seek the living among the dead
As you see those grave clothes
As He said, He arose
Now make sure that this good word is spread

Sit Down to God's Word-A Random Act of Poetry



One thing that's not so absurd
Is to sit down and read god's Word
Helps you through every day
Guides you when you pray
Helps gives you rest, that's assured

Attack!

I was attacked the other day for my beliefs. By a friend.

That's okay. Thinking as we are now in Lent, Jesus was betrayed by a friend and sent to his death.

Anyways it was about a sentiment I expressed online. Had to do with the state of New Jersey lowering their flags half mast in observance of the passing of singer, Whitney Houston. I never made any reference to the turbulence which defined her later life, I just questioned as to why the state would lower their flag for an entertainer. I was asked on my Facebook page if I thought it was okay when flags were lowered for Dale Earnhardt. Though I am a NASCAR fan, I don't agree with that either.

I host a page on Facebook, called Question of the Day. I threw out the question  When, do you think, should flags be flown at half staff?  I got the expected answers, seeing that this was a current topic in the news. Some even mentioned Whitney Houston's drug addiction problem.

Then came this post on the QotD page: You all sit there and hide behind your computer screens on this page and judge people for their short comings. Some of you claim to be Christians. Aren’t Christians supposed to follow the word of the lord! A lord who is all forgiving, a lord who would never bash anyone the way you all do. Perhaps it’s time to do some reflection on your own lives, none of us are perfect! Yet some of you feel you have the right to judge others based on your own perceptions. It seems to me that some of you do it for the personal need of recognition and some of you do it because you are sheep and follow. In the end, we will all be judged by one! For these reasons I have chosen to no longer partake in these discussions.



 I felt that that was an attack against me, as I posted a video on my timeline that morning by the Chuckwagon Gang. I try to post a Christian video every Sunday.

I guess people can go online and question the actions of Tim Tebow, who is public about where his talent comes from. They can place any Christian politician under the microscope, and magnify their shortcomings. If anybody doesn't agree with your personal beliefs, they use the word "hate" to describe the views they oppose. Much of this is Marxist thinking. They want anybody expressing Christian beliefs to tuck tail and run.

In the end, we all will judged by one. And we won't get bonus points for worshiping at the altar of celebrity. And I will continue to let my light shine.
