I think we ought to only read the kind of books that wound and stab us. If the book we are reading doesn't wake us up with a blow on the head, what are we reading it for? So that it will make us happy ,as you write? Franz Kafka, Letters to Friends, Family, and Editors. I'm a rockstar, I got my rock moves. Mr big muscle man turns to me and says, “It’s James, not Jack, are you ready to work out? Welcome to Bally’s. Do those little machines really work? I don’t trust that electrical current one bit. Oh, Jam...

Today is the day they waited. Today is the day they longed. Sat together in silence. His image burned in their minds eye from the night before. His appearance was so disfigured, beyond that of any man. And his form marred beyond human likeness. Not just any man. But their greatest friend. But the friend who was God and became man. A man that became a brother, a father, and a lover to humanity. To see him raised. Lifted up and highly exalted. They knew it was the Lord's will to crush him. I want so badly...

love god love people: hope
http://lovegodlovepeople-emily.blogspot.com/2010/01/hope.html
I feel like I've been thinking about hope a lot, wondering about it more in the past few months than I ever have before. In the midst of studying the theology of "asking" at my church, I find it is quite hard to ask (pray to God) without hope. But, to hope is such a fragile action. "Don't make me hope", I've said to God more times than I can count. "It hurts too much", I proclaim. For obvious reasons.mainly, if I hope and the thing I hope for does not occur, what then God? Oh how I pray for that hope tha...

I have found that panty hose rip a lot more often than you would first guess, and that blisters are common place here. I have found that the people who fill the chairs on intern row are people who i can not wait to know more and learn more from. Therefore, my dear Sir, I could give you no advice but this: to go into yourself and to explore the depths whence your life wells forth; at its source you will find the answer to the question whether you must create."

A prayer for discovery. Headed to the beach. This time, for something all together different than the previous mentioned R&R. Saturday morning as I packed up my swimsuite and googles, I kept questioning if this was actually happening. (Mind you, the kid googles from Target are probably not the best to use when doing a sprint-triathlon, but in an effort to save money- they actually did quite well! That's just not something I do. As soon as you are tired of swimming, you start biking! Here is the wonderful...

The Work of Christmas. When the song of the angels is stilled,. When the star in the sky is gone,. When the kings and princes are home,. When the shepherds are back with their flock,. The work of Christmas begins:. To find the lost,. To heal the broken,. To feed the hungry. To release the prisoners,. To rebuild the nations,. To bring peace among people,. To make music in the heart. And to radiate the Light of Christ,. In every way,. In all that we do and in all that we say. Poem by Howard Thurman. It was...

love god love people: Thankful
http://lovegodlovepeople-emily.blogspot.com/2009/12/thankful.html
I thank You God for most this amazing. Day: for the leaping greenly spirits of trees. And a blue true dream of sky; and for everything. Which is natural which is infinite which is yes. I who have died am alive again today,. And this is the sun's birthday; this is the birth. Day of life and of love and wings: and of the gay. Great happening illimitably earth). How should tasting touching hearing seeing. Breathing any- lifted from the no. Of all nothing- human merely being. Now the ears of my ears awake and.

Great op-ed on what is happening in Honduras:. Http:/ online.wsj.com/article/SB124683595220397927.html. Trust God from the bottom of your heart;. Don't try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for God's voice in everything you do, everywhere you go;. He's the one who will keep you on track. Don't assume that you know it all. Your body will glow with health,. Your very bones will vibrate with life! Honor God with everything you own;. Give him the first and the best. Your barns will burst,. Yep Tha...
