I Can't Remember What I Never Forgot - 9/11

The amount of commercials advertising various commemorative activities, services, shows, etc. for the tenth anniversary of 9/11 have officially reached overwhelming. Today I thought, "I don't want to remember." I know it was a selfish thought ~ but true.  I can't believe it has been a decade ~ that wound seems so fresh, so new.  I don't want to remember ~ but in reality I never forgot.  There is so much I still feel and see from those days.  So much that I weep even now as I type.

I can't remember what I'll never forget about that day ~ and the ones that followed.

Latest God-Cha! Christians Get Depressed Too

Today I was reminded again why I enjoy the Internet and our ever 'shrinking world' so much!!
 
God allowed me an awesome God-Cha!  These days it seems everyone is hurting ~ Christians and non-Christians alike.  Even as my personal darkness has lifted and passed I watch others sinking.  As I delve deeper into God's word and strive to fulfill whatever God's purpose is for my life I was thrilled to see this blog post re: a new book.

That is not in the Bible!! Is it?

In yesterday's post Bible College isn't like Sunday School I promised to post some of the things I have already learned about scripture or people in the scriptures' that I did not already know.  Here are some of the high points so far.
  • Many Christians know and even quote Mark 14:7a  ~ "The poor you will always have with you" but I did not realize the complete scripture ~ as spoken by Jesus to his disciples ~ is this:
"The poor you will always have with you and you can help them any time you want. But you will not always have me. (physically)" ~ Mark 14:7  Don't hear a lot of folks quoting that "and you can help them any time you want" part of the verse.  Just sayin......

Bible College isn't like Sunday School!

A week from this coming Tuesday I begin college. AGAIN! But this will be the LAST time I start again. I am studying for a B.A. in Leadership Ministries.  I lack a college Algebra from completing my core curriculum ~ that only took 25 years! (Don't laugh ~ that is REAL!)  Now I will focus on Bible and ministry courses.  I am an official student of a small, private (accredited) Bible college. ~ Even have the Student ID to prove it!

The Faith to Forgive - Another God-Cha!!



Earlier this week I wrote about the word I created ~ God-Cha!

I was given another God-Cha today.  I love T.D. Jakes and often I will listen to one of his sermon's while I clean the house.  Today I randomly chose this sermon:
