The only person whose opinion counts, the creator God of the universe, looks at me in Christ and finds me more valuable than all the jewels in the earth. Why worry about being snubbed now? Why care too much about what we look like in the mirror?
last night i microwaved a hot pocket and forgot about it. it sat in the microwave all night. this am i pulled it out and... you're not going to believe this... it was still extremely hot. almost 12 hours later and the inside was still molten lava. @hotpockets how do you do that??
The basic premise of religion– that if you live a good life, things will go well for you– is wrong. Jesus was the most morally upright person who ever lived, yet He had a life filled with the experience of poverty, rejection, injustice, and torture.
great thought from a podcast this morning from @timkellernyc:
"our emotions aren't based on our circumstances, but rather they are based on our beliefs."
Watching the less efficient swimming strokes is comical to me and I wish they had comparable things in track:
1. Backwards Running
2. Sideways running
3. Grapevine warm up but as a race
This morning I saw a bird in my yard grab a worm. Around 715 am. Moments later (maybe 2 minutes) another bird shows up and snatches that worm right away from the first bird. The early bird did not get the worm. The late bird showed up and took it away. So much for that saying.
