Chris' Christian Blog

July 17, 2020

Prompt: "Writing is thinking out loud. Blogging is thinking out loud where other folks think back.”~ Liz Strauss

What are your thoughts?"

I think I would tend to agree with that assessment. When I write I do not always do so with the expectation of receiving feedback. I am usually writing out my thoughts. When I blog I am discussing things with others.

Scholars say that Christians in the early church shared the gospel stories to the point that they knew every nuance of the stories. They could tell by what order the story was being told which gospel was being told.

Fox News did a report at Easter that interviewed many people. Most identified as "Christian" but did not know what Easter celebrated. What does this say for us?

I would say that this suggests that Christians have some work to do. We are slowly losing America as it becomes a melting pot of religions. That might be great for culture but it is contrary to the commandments of God. Christians have let liberal politicians and liberal judges pass laws that are contrary to God's word. The Old Testament has entire books devoted to what God feels about a countries leadership having policies that go against His commands. Try reading Jeremiah for example. God is not pleased with the way things are.

Prompt: "Have fun with these words in your blog today: critic, feather, visual, emphasis, grand, jester, correspond

I am my own worst critic. I suppose we all are. There are times I nearly tar and feather myself. I know I'm human but watch out if I make a mistake! My 20/20 visual hindsight is really hard on me. I guess I place an emphasis on "perfection." I have grand ideas for myself. Many times I feel like the court jester. I guess that would correspond with being human, would it not?

This is beautifully written. I find that life is whatever I make it to be. If I make it painful it is painful. If I make it fun it is fun. It all depends on my attitude. I believe jaya is absolutely spot on. It depends on us.
