"February 22, 2020"    "Prompt: "All labor that uplifts humanity has dignity and importance and should be undertaken with painstaking excellence." Martin Luther King, Jr. Use this quote to inspire your blog entry"I agree with Reverend King. My Bible tells me that whatever I do I should do to the glory of God. Colossians 3:17 says "Whatever you do in word or deed, do it in the name of Jesus." If I am going to do something in the name of Jesus I am going to do it right. It makes no difference if I am writing a speech or scrubbing a toilet, I want it done properly because I am doing it in the name of Jesus and to the glory of God. King is absolutely spot on with his observation. pROMPT: “We’re past the age of heroes and hero kings. … Most of our lives are basically mundane and dull, and it’s up to the writer to find ways to make them interesting.” —John Updike, WDWhat are your thoughts? Do you agree that our lives are mundane and dull?" I think this statement is one that was made in ignorance. As a history minor at the undergraduate level I learned that the age so many long to go back to was an age when women were treated like property. It was an age of barbarians and intolerable human rights violations. It was an age during which wars were fought by targeting entire cities and blockading them until they starved into submission. No! It was not a "golden age" as many like to call it. As much as we have problems now, humanity has come a long ways since then.      |
