I don't quite get it..

Where does it ever say in the bible that Jesus hated people who were different? That he protested against them and used his beliefs as a cover up for his own political agenda? He didn't, he never did. That's why I don't get why people think their the sin police and will go to great lengths to point out other peoples flaws but seem to miss their own.

merry christmas!

"Good news from heaven the angels bring,

glad tidings to earth they sing: to us

this day a child is given, to

crown us with the joy of heaven."

"Though the earth cried out for blood
satisfied her hunger was
her billows calmed on raging seas
for the souls of men she craved

Sun and moon from balcony
turned their head in disbelief
their precious blood would taste the sting
disfigured and disdained"

John Mark McMillan: Death in His Grave

I've watched way too much television today

Being sick has left me with few options to do today that doesn't make me want to puke or fall over. So I resorted to my normal spot on the couch, and turned on the T.V. I continued to waste the entire day in front of the T.V. It is now 7:00pm and I can't seem to pull myself away. I've watched the most pointless shows you could have ever imagined. I watched women cry about not getting the perfect wedding dress, I've watched "guidos and guidettes" fight over each other, I've watched 8 year old beauty queen's mothers yell at their daughters for not winning, and after watching all this I still cannot pull myself away. So now I sit here trying to do something else, but failing miserably. So I will be finishing the night with watching T.V, getting it all out of my system. Tomorrow I will start new, I will get all my Christmas shopping done, I will finish applying to college (hopefully), and I will do my laundry that has now taken over the corner of my room. Tomorrow will be a better, more productive day.

Searching for God knows what...

"I think of this meeting with Ron when I consider Christ, who, like Ron, must have a proverbial envelope in His pocket, laying down picture after picture, knowing our names, knowing the number of hairs on our heads, knowing our stories and fears and desires. He looks at each of us and feels in his heart the kind of love that would make him want to come to earth and die so we could be healed, so we could feel the love that would make Him want to come to earth and die so we could be healed, so we could feel the love that is going to make us whole." (Donal Miller pg.132)

After reading this book, this is my absolute favorite part. When I read it, it makes me get the tingleys all over. No one could explain this any better.

don't you hate it when..

(1) you have something in your mind, and no matter how hard you try to write it down or explain it, you can't.

(2) the dog wants to go outside as soon as you sit down and get comfy.

(3) food blows up in the microwave, no matter how hard you scrub it doesn't come off.

(4) you forget something you were trying really hard to not forget.

(5) you lock your keys in your car. I tend to do this a lot.

(6) the internet goes down right when you get on it.
