| OK, this one is an encouragement post. Not to be confused with the last "serious" post 
I'm reading through Acts with some guys from Fusion. I just ran across this passage.
24"The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by hands. 25And
he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything, because he
himself gives all men life and breath and everything else. 26From
one man he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole
earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places
where they should live. 27God did this so that men would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us.
I love the part about how He determines the times and places of our lives, so that we would seek him. It's kinda comforting to know that where we live, or go to school, or work, or even where we worship isn't even really up to us. He's kinda simplified it all by saying: "Stop worrying about the future. Seek me and go where I tell you. Trust me on this one; you'll love what I have prepared for you!"
Be encouraged. If life feels like it 's all up in the air, or you're not sure what to do with that BIG decision that keeps you up nights. Let it go. God's taken care of the details, we [I] just need to stop and listen.

| This is a "serious" post -- if you're not in the mood, go waste some time on Facebook :)
While we go throughout days paying bills, building our wealth, and laughing with friends we don't stop to think about what's going on beyond our doorstep. Or at least I don't. Or don't want to.
Presently Iran is building nuclear technology in hopes of provoking Israel and the U.S. into war, if not it aims for the ultimate goal of Israel's destruction. They speak of a Great War on the horizon. Nothing new there. President Al-jackass has been spewing hatred and lies on the people of Iran for a long time, and most--not all--have fallen prey to his deception. They believe that Israel is a zionist regime that is hell-bent on their destruction, when Iran and other Islamo-terror nations are the ones calling for a jihad.
Here's an interesting post:
| "Such
comments will lead to an eventual peace pact that will cause Israel to
accept its author as its long awaited Messiah. This peace pact will be
short lived (3+ years), eventually broken, and as a result, the Jews
will have to run for their lives as they will be the hunted. This will
culminate in the Battle of Armageddon with the return of Jesus Christ.
The Jews will then realize, albeit too late, that He is their Messiah.
The Millenial Reign of Christ will begin and Israel will inherit the
original land grant given to Abraham in Genesis, which extends from the
Nile River to the Euphrates and includes Lebanon, Syria, Jordan and
Iraq. Believe it or not, that's what will happen according to God." |
And yet how amazing to see this unfolding before our eyes.
Read Ezekiel 38-39

| I love internet 2.0! Some will say the bubble will burst again. Just like it did in 2000. Others say people are more cautious, levelheaded, and will not pour millions of dollars into a worthless web venture. That's a relief!
But today the name of the game is free. You get traffic by posting link-bait. Forget linkbuilding/meta-tags/seo tomfoolery [did I mention this a geeks-only post?] Offer people free apps and they will traffic your site! Plus they'll spread the word! Just make them valuable and user friendly. It's worked for Google, Yahoo, and umpteen other sites that offer helpful tools and slick new web gadgetry and entertainment.
Here's a fun one I stumbled upon. Literally.
 It puts together relevant playlists based on your favorite artists. First the human genome...now the musical. And yet it begs the question: where the "H" are my flying cars??

| If I were to vote for a woman President, it would be Condi Rice.

It's nice to see a politician with backbone.
And if you missed Clinton's meltdown on Fox News...
(it garnered Fox News Sunday's best ratings since Saddam's capture)

OK. So the time I probably laughed the hardest... I have this bad habit of grabbing a piece of fruit and never eating it. All the time I find fruit on my nightstand, my desk at work, or usually--via odor--somewhere in the trusty Sable. Well when I found an orange one time I decided I'd take it with me to work out. Arriving at the fitness center I bumped into my roomate...he was on the treadmill. Now I'm not sure what spurred me on, but I decided I should toss the orange onto the mill and "just see what happens". Sounded innocent enough. So, fruit-in-hand, I made casual conversation with Paul, then without warning I held my clementine friend over the rubber and let gravity take care of the rest. Now in my mind I saw the orange hitting the deck and rolling off harmlessly. Nope. 1 bounce, a second, and then "squash!". Paul's foot obliterated clem before sending it's juiceless shell off the mill. At that point I fell to the floor laughing--Paul plauded on, undeterred by my "fruit-ful" efforts--I was near tears. But I cleaned off the track and he never flinched, and we're still real good friends. Real, real, real good. Though I'm sure retribution is in my future:) | | |
