One Great Weekend

This weekend is one that I wish didn’t have to end. It started off with a trip to the theater to see The Passion of the Christ on Friday night. The movie was very good, but not perfect. I’m glad that it was made. With all the hype, I expected it to be more violent [...]

Even Good Guys Have Bad Days

From The Onion:
Transformer Refuses To Change BackInto Volkswagen
CYBERTRON—Following an intense battle with Megatron and his evil Decepticons Monday, former robot-in-disguise Bumblebee refused to revert to his natural state as a yellow Volkswagen Beetle. “I hid my existence in this world by taking the form of a vehicle! I revealed my true nature when I was [...]

OpenOffice

Last week I extolled the virtues of using Mozilla as an internet browser. I’d like now to recommend another Open Source alternative to using Micro$oft. Open Office is a great office suite that does most of what Microsoft Office does. It will read and write Word Documents and Excel Spreadsheets. It also has a Powerpoint-like [...]

Glad to Know Linux

Ok, I don’t really know Linux, but it sure is nice to have a basic understanding of it. Linux is a form of Unix, and the newest Mac operating system sits on top of FreeBSD, another form of Unix. I was having trouble at work today trying to save some drawing files I was working [...]

My Utmost for His Highest

I don’t post the day’s “My Utmost” very often, and don’t think I’ve ever done it two days in a row, but this is an especially good one. I am admittedly very guilty of what it speaks of myself.
INFERIOR MISGIVINGS ABOUT JESUS
Sir, Thou hast nothing to draw with. – John 4:11
“I am impressed with the [...]

My Utmost for His Highest

THE DESTITUTION OF SERVICE
Though the more abundantly I love you, the less I be loved. – 2 Corinthians 12:15
Natural love expects some return, but Paul says – I do not care whether you love me or not, I am willing to destitute myself completely, not merely for your sakes, but that I may get you [...]

Do You Know Your Political Spectrum

I used to sympathize with the Democratic Party, having been raised by Democrats who were both raised by Democrats. I’ll even admit, as much as it shames me to say so, that I voted to re-elect Bill Clinton in 1996. To my defense, I didn’t become a Christian until 1999, and I didn’t really grasp [...]

Scariest Verses in all of Scripture

Listening to a commentary on Isaiah at work, I’m reminded of what I think are the scariest verses in all of scripture; found in the 7th chapter of Matthew:
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which [...]

Will an Amendment Work?

I listened to The Radio Factor a little on the way home for lunch today. O’Reilly was talking about the need for a Constitutional Amendment defining marriage as between one man and one woman. I agree completely, and have signed petitions showing my support for it that have gone to the desks of all three [...]
