I have to admit, that sometimes I don't read my Bible enough. Don't get me wrong, I read at least a passage or two every day, along with a devotional, but there are times when I feel like I'm spiritually malnourished, and I need a feast. This morning, well, actually before I went to bed last night, I decided that instead of watching the nonsense on the t.v.s in the gym, or listening to my favorite Christian Radio Station (hello, KSBJ!! You guys rock!), that I was going to listen to the Bible on audio. I hadn't a clue what book I was going to listen to, or what message I wanted to receive. When I got there, I plugged in, found an audio in a version that I liked, and turned it on to Romans 1. Now, I don't know about you, but the Roman's Road is a wonderful place for anyone seeking God to start, and Paul is no slouch in giving the Gospel. What got me, is that I had forgotten some stuff along life's way, and today was a good day to be reminded. Specificall...

This is the first of I hope many vlogs in conjuction with MamaAlways. Most of them will be Bible based, just letting you know, but I hope they are thought provoking, encouraging, uplifting, perhaps maybe toe-stepping, or all of the above.

There are a lot of people in the world who believe that God is love. On the other hand, there are a great deal of folks who believe that God is hateful and vengeful. We can pretty much rule out the hateful part, but the love and vengeance is what has most people perplexed. When we look at God as a loving God, we go all the way back to the book of Genesis, and creation. God decides that He wants fellowship with His Creation and the love that He has for Man is evident. Even with the expulsion from Eden and then Cain's fugitive status after killing Abel, God still showed His love and compassion for Man by allowing Adam and Eve to live, although not in the Garden. His mercy shows in that Cain was not destroyed, and was allowed to have a family, even though he was not allowed to be part of Adam's family group. He shows His love in keeping the human race alive through Noah and his sons, and their families on the Ark. The rainbow that God set in the sky is a reminder that He keeps...

Every day now, the news brings us word of another reason to look toward the Eastern Sky. If it's not some sort of violence such as an act of terrorism, a school shooting, or a public figure's suicide, it's a reason for Conservatives, Christians, or others with a moral compass to shudder. I have gotten to the point that I have very few reasons to watch the news anymore. I rarely watch t.v. unless it's recorded on my dvr. I can't stomach some of the tripe that the media calls entertainment. Unfortunately, my social media gets some stuff...partly because of the cross-section of the population that are part of my friends list, and partly because of the stuff that's inserted just because. Okay, now that I've piqued your curiosity, I'll tell you what I'm beating around the bush about. I'm tired of society telling me, my daughter, or anyone else how to raise their own children. Look...I have raised my daughters to be good, morally upstanding citizen...
