The Politics of Balance
When I think back over the last couple hundred years of American
politics, particularly as it pertains to our political parties,
something strikes me profoundly about where we are today. While I’m
sure there are plenty of areas where we have “gone astray” of the
founding fathers original vision for our nation, there is one
particular area that I’ve been thinking about lately. That is,
having two major political parties.
God is…
God is love. We hear that a lot. And I think that’s absolutely true.
God is love. However, I sometimes wonder if we are understanding the
entire scope when we say things like that. To say that “God is love”
carries with it a rather distinct meaning from it’s inverse, “Love
is God.” Those two things are not the same. This is very much unlike
one of the mathematical theorems that says if a=b then b=a. There is
a bit of difference between these concepts.
Discrimination Against Christianity
One of the ironies in the area of politics and religion seems to be
that those people who strongly profess a faith of some sort feel as
though they are being persecuted by the secular minority and the
secular minority feels as though they are being persecuted by those
who are religious. It’s an interesting predicament.
The Convenience of Money
I don’t know if you’re old enough to remember this, and perhaps I’m
showing my age a bit, but do you remember what life was like before
debit cards? I still remember what it was like when we didn’t have
the Internet (or at least the World Wide Web), or cell phones, or
ATMs. The more I think about that, the more I can’t help but wonder
if all the conveniences and advances in technology actually make
life better, simpler or happier. That the last one is not true is
probably a slam-dunk argument. What about better or simpler? As far
as “better” that would be difficult to determine since that is a
subjective thing.

You are too special for Him to forget, too important for Him to neglect, too precious for Him to ignore. That's why He set you before His eyes and crafted you on His palms that He might remember you
forever, as long as He lives. So be not discouraged, Jesus is concerned about you always.
Everything has its wonders, even darkness and silence, and I learn, whatever state I may be in, therein to be content. [Helen Keller]
Another proof of the conquest of a soul for Christ will be found in a real change of life. If the man does not live differently from what he did before, both at home and abroad, his repentance needs to
be repented of and his conversion is a fiction. [Charles Spurgeon]
