Let's be reasonable with one another, shall we?

These are high and lofty ideals based on extensive study...

Give me a greeting when you visit. I appreciate nice-ness.
You can address another blogger ... and even disagree with them, that is fine. All I ask is that you leave censure and hand-slapping to me.
Speak up ...
about the posts.
Be nice!

Q: Why do I like these quotes? A: Because they make me feel good. :~)

Earl - As I write, teach Sunday School, I think of people like you in my audience. It gives me a sanity check of what I am saying. Would what I say pass the "crap" or sanity check of you or others that I know?

KC -
You're a great sister ;-)

Colin Maxwell -
I enjoyed your post and desire to think these things out.

Loren - Your posting is full of many thought provoking points and excellent, searching questions ... you're really a very profound thinker.

Earl - You have a fun blog!
I really appreciate what you're doing.

Joe - You are my favorite theological blogger.

Jeremy - Good job ... Bye.

Todd - With blogs like this one there is plenty to be hopeful for in the blogsphere.

Matthew - Its nice to read an edifying Christian blog ... You are so level-headed.

Mark - You're real! The blogosphere needs more real people like you around.

Loren - I'll bet you stay up late nights thinking about all the theology that must be swimming through your head. I just want to say that it's great to see the ways in which God is challenging you, and using you to minister through your blog. The things you, and others here, have shared, are very thought provoking!

I think God is awesome. He calls red white and white red ... and He is reasonable all at the same time. He has a very incredible sense of color. This is important to artsy people like me.

Come now, and let us reason together, says the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
(Isaiah 1:18)

Q: Why do I call them 'posts of note'? A: Because they are about things that I think about ... or have thought about ... a lot.

These are people that are so very reasonable.

Although I don't necessarily agree with everything all these people say, I do think we have something essential in common - proclaiming that the Word of God is the absolute truth.

Whining

I am tired of my children being ill.
I don't want to be ill right now.
I do not like January.
My baby's bottom looks like hamburger.
How soon will Spring arrive?
I miss going to church.

  • So sorry, Rose. I'm prayin' for you and that poor baby. January's almost over. :)

  • Poor Rose,
    I'll be praying for healing for you and the baby. Your post reminded me of the song by the Mama's and the Papa's California Dreamin'. It was a bit before your time, but you probably know it. It's a good song for the winter blues.

    On Christmas a friend gave me an amaryllis bulb to grow. It's now several inches high and makes spring seem a little closer.
    Hope you feel better soon, Rose!

  • Sorry Rose,

    All of you have my prayers. I have been there and done that but not been there recently.

    We in S. Florida are struggling today.. It might get down as low as 65* tonight. Our Avocados (large as small footballs) are ripening (picture on my Blog) and we enjoy walking in the sunshine.

    Thinking of you... ;-)

    Levi is still getting better. That poor kid has been sick with one thing or another for 5 weeks now - ever since the eve of his birthday.

    ExPreacher man,
