Another Game!!!

OK everybody! A prize goes to the person who can figure out who said this:

"Yes, it's embarrassing to be born again, but imagine how embarrassing it must have been to be born the first time. At least this time you get to wear clothes!"

I will post a clue in the next couple of days for those of you who need it.

Good luck!
(I haven't decided on a prize yet)

Just Sitting Here

Thank You for life:
Tiny heart that beats so fast.
Soul never-dying.

Thank You for children:
Innocence and potential.
Thank You for the precious green-eyed child
I held tonight.

Where they are hungry,
and naked:
Your body,
Let me be alive.

Where they are dying
a hopeless life:
Awake my spirit,
let me not sit in apathy.

To touch,
Sing.
Move.
Love.

Because,
"Love is a movement." (Switchfoot)
and it is not.--

Me
Just sitting here
Being selfish.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

And a Happy New Year to each of you.

May Jesus be the light of your Christmas .

Now, music!

Hey everyone, I've added a Project Playlist music player to my blogsite. Now you are able to listen to a few songs I like when you visit my page. Just go down to the bottom and click play. You are also able to click on a different song if you don't like the one that plays first. Enjoy!

Praying and Waiting

Praying and waiting.

I hear missionaries do these two things a lot. I'm good with the praying. There always seems to be plenty to talk about with my King-Papa. But I am not very good at the waiting.

It seems like it's been ages since I applied for work with the IMB, and even longer since I felt the call of God and began to try my hand at obeying. Sometimes it is hard to know what to do while I wait. Sometimes it is difficult to keep a clear focus.

It is Christmas time already. Jesus is the reason for everything. I'm so glad he was born. I'm so glad that instead of loving us through some far-off spiritual means of salvation He showed us true Love by sharing in our human experience. He felt pain, beauty, art, grief, attraction, joy, affection, fatigue, sickness, friendship, frustration, misunderstanding, betrayal. Jesus knew exactly how to wait. "The things concerning me have an end."

hold your horses

First of all, hold your horses. I rarely share any political views, so please bear with me and give me the respect I will give you: the respect of not taking politics personally.

That said, look at what the socialist bent has discovered: catechism! Ignorance of the truth these democrats know has lost many a believer's child. No wonder the devil desires the reigns of America's public schools!

Yay, Snow!

Today, little things bring us happiness.

Snow and ice,
Hot tea and warm soup,
A new rug beside the fresh Christmas tree,
Christmas plans,
Puppet skits (mo and I are working on one),
Children's quips,
Soda pop and
MUSIC.

Home is good, because Jesus is hope.
Without Christmas there would be no hope, no purpose, no Africa for me.
Thank you my King!!

finger paints

I think I've finally found my art medium. I told my 4 year old brother that I'd paint with him, and a grand adventure ensued.
