The Fire Escape

I know, I’m such a loser blogger right now. I know I haven’t checked in in a while, I promised I will be up to date soon. I have a handicapped kitty at my home, my mother is in town, I’m cooking mashed potatoes for 24 peeps, feeding ANOTHER cat for my dad, and then trying to fit a regular week’s worth of job tasks into 3 days. THAT is the reason for my blogging lame-ness. I apologize. On the upside, tomorrow is this week’s “friday” AND it’s going to rain tonight (I love the rain). Thank you for our patience friends and family.

and the heros of the day are….

hands down,

Ben and Jerry.

I’ll leave you with a verse to consider:

“Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy.” -Proverbs 31:8-9

Today is a good day. Congrats Barack, I’m proud of you and what you and your supporters have accomplished. My prayers are and will continue to be with you. GObama!

And Thank you Jesus that this election is finally over. Now let us continue to “vote” with our everyday choices. I’ll leave you with a quote:

“How we need to wake up to the truth that we vote for or against the Kingdom every day of our life. We vote by how we spend our money and time. We vote by where we live, who we hang out with, the kind of car we drive and the kind of clothes we wear. In the Kingdom, we vote with our lives, not in a booth expressing our opinion about what Caesar should do.”
The church’s one and only job is to look like Jesus, humbly manifesting God’s love in sacrificial service to all people at all times.
~Gregory Boyd, in his book Myth of a Christian Nation

Put away falsehood

As this website accurately states, when Christians spread falsehood, the world sees us and our witness is weakened.

Good luck at the voting booths! May you make a well-informed decision based on truth and not slander (regardless of which candidate you choose).

Dooce’s daily Chuck was worthy of mention today. Thank you Dooce for frequently making my day
