Hey there! Did ya miss me? I’ve missed writing…a LOT. I hope to get back in the swing of things before too long.

For now though, I’m just testing out mobile blogging. “What is THAT?”, you say. Well, I’ve an app on my HTC Eris super-smartphone that I can use to post instead of being tied to a computer. Super sweet so far.

I do want to share a pic of my new, fake, parts that I received on Jan 6th. I think it looks just like me. Hope it shows in the post. Not sure where it will, but I’m sure if it does you’ll know what it is

Stay tuned for some GREAT news!

In this game called life I can count the number of times I have been ahead, on just 1 finger.  I don’t think I’d need the whole finger at that.

My defense has been on the field for longer than I can remember.  Battered, bruised, and getting broken, always taking the brunt of the assault, but never catching that break.  That one play.

Where is that one play?  The one that gets the 3rd out, catches the interception or grabs the rebound.  The play that allows the defense a chance to catch a breath of air.  Mend the wounded.  Toss the old play-book and write a new.

It’s taking a beating but still trying to stand strong.  But how long can it continue?  How long before the grumbling starts?  Wait.  What is that sound?  I think grumbling is starting.

It’s that play-book that’s causing the trouble.  Always trying to defend the pass and getting beat by the run.  Defending the run, when it shoulda been a pass.  My defense is just out of sync. Who’s coaching this defense anyway?

Wait.  That would be me.  Not that it’s just me.  I do have one higher that I consult.  Am I not running the plays he’s calling?  Am I consulting and not listening?  That wouldn’t be any good.

The end of the first half is near.  That may be the only time to regroup.  Time for review.  Time to talk to the Counselor and see where I’m failing.  Time to rally the players.

We will be starting the second half on defense.  Time for 3 up and 3 down.  Three and out.  Get the tall man under the goal.

Get me some offense!  Hear my battle cry!

Romans 14:5—-5One man considers one day more sacred than another; another man considers every day alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind. 6He who regards one day as special, does so to the Lord

I’m positive God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are in awe of all the talk and focus on it.  It’s another special day where  Jesus becomes the center of the thoughts of folks all over the world.  The other special day is of course Christmas.  Aren’t these days just magnificent?

What is going to happen on Monday when this weekend is over?

Please don’t get me wrong.  I know this day is set aside for this event. I gotta tell ya though, I hope that come Monday there is just as much excitement about Jesus, his birth, his life, his death, and his resurrection as there has been in recent days.  I hope that we as followers of Christ will continue with THE GREAT news with as much excitement, enthusiasm, and LOVE as we have tried to spread it this week.  Jesus, MY Savious, OUR saviour, deserves nothing less.  Did we deserve?

Because of HIM,

Jesus’ death, burial, and resurrection is THE best thing that has and will happen to me, to us.  It is just wonderful to see and hear so much talk about the greatest event in history during this Easter holiday weekend.

Tornado Warning is in effect for your county/city/town right now!  Seek shelter immediately!  

What just went through your mind?

Kinda scares me a bit when I see those words now-a-days. Tornadoes have been in the forefront of folks mind around here today.  People seem to be a bit on edge, understandibly so. 

The possiblity of such weather has been talked about a lot this week.  Today, there was a good chance we might see some of that rough weather.  We were put under a tornado watch early in the day until 2AM tomorrow. 

I went to the barber shop and the barber said that at 3:00pm, which is when the rough weather was moving in and around our area, his business died off…fast.  The threat of weather had folks close to their shelter of choice.  They were getting prepared for what might be coming.

Then, there is this.  

What I’m about to share is a warning of sorts.  But, there is a 100% chance that this will affect you.  There is no “might happen” to this warning.  It will happen.  We have been put under a watch for several years now and it has never been lifted.

Here is the “whether” report: (whether your ready or not)

“But the day of the Lord will come like a thief.  The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything in it will be laid bare” (1 John 3:1o)  

Seek shelter immediately!  (that’s mine)

What just went through your mind?
