Weird Pictures

Have you all ever seen those pictures where people see Jesus in Corn Flakes, or Dale Earnhardt on the side of a goat.  Well this happened to me the other day when we were eating our supper.

It's a piece of chicken in the shape of a heart!

Powerful

And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within you.  And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.  And I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes and be careful to obey my rules.  Exekiel 36:26-27

Amazing scripture here.  The idea that Jesus has given me an entirely new heart.  That he would willingly remove my old, broken, dead heart and replace it with a new living heart of flesh.  And not only did he willingly give me a new heart, but he gave me a new spirit.  And what is most amazing above both of those amazing things is that He put His very Spirit within me.  The Spirit of Jesus actually lives within me.  Jesus Himself, I AM, the timeless God who as existed always, now actually dwells inside of me.  Thank You Jesus for saving me, giving me a new heart, and dwelling within me!

Simple

I have lived in Gadsden nearly twenty years I believe.  There are some good and bad things about living in a small town.  There are a lot of things that you hate, and some things that you really love.  Well there is one place in Gadsden that I really enjoy.

Nelsons.  Nelsons has been in Gadsden for forever, long before I ever got to Gadsden.  Now that Avery is older she likes to frequent “the candy store” as she calls it fairly often.  And I can honestly say that it may be one of my favorite places in all of Gadsden.  If you have never been, hopefully I can describe it to you.  It is an old store in the heart of downtown.  It has the original hardwood floors.  Every time I go in there it smells exactly the same, not a gross smell, just a familiar smell.  And they are always playing music form the late 40’s and early 50’s in there.  When we go there time just seems to slow down and life just becomes simple.

Windows 7

There are a lot of commercials for computers that are out right now.  And all the different companies take different approaches and also seek to reach a different demographic.  Well as you can see from this video Windows 7 was the idea of the “People”, in all these adds the people are claiming that “Windows 7 was MY idea”.  Well I just have to let everyone know that if Windows 7 was your idea, it was a BAD IDEA, because it has messed up my work computer.  GO MAC!

If you are visitor to my blog and you are not a Christian, thank you for coming by.  If you are a visitor to my site and you are a believer thank you for coming by.  Either way, I think we all need to read this.  Check out this post by Donald Miller, http://donmilleris.com/2010/01/13/1513/

War Eagle

OK, just needed to get a big War Eagle out there.  Now I feel better!

Ummmmm…………

I saw this sticker at the Christian bookstore yesterday.  Is this really necessary, or are we just trying to find ways to say Hell in the Christian vernacular and it be OK.  Maybe you are cool with this sticker, but I am not to sure.

Idol, Who’s Your Fav?

Just a few more weeks, and we will start yet another season of American Idol.  Now I must admit that it is getting a little old, and it is now mostly background noise.  I also have no idea what prompted this post, but here it is.  These are my top five favorite idols, who are yours?

This is my favorite Idol.

Huge fan, not only was he a great singer, but he was a strong believer in Christ.

Without question the most entertaining idol.

Great singer and a great musician. His version of Eleanor Rigby was awesome!

The lone girl in my countdown, still one of my favs.

And honorable mention goes to……..

Kellie Pickler

So what is your Idol top five?

Christmas Pet Peaves

Ok, I am having a huge problem this Christmas, and it has to do with a Christmas song.  The song, “Sleigh Ride”, the problem, the lyrics.  There is a bridge in this song that talks about a party at the home of Farmer Gray.  OK, the newer versions of the song are talking about a Christmas party at the home of Farmer Gray.  Well if you will listen to the original version of this song, the words say that there is a “Birthday Party” at the home of Farmer Gray.  Please let’s get this right, messing up Christmas traditions and truths drives me crazy.  A couple more examples, there are 9 Reinghdeer not 8.  I am tired of comercials on TV making fun of Santa Claus, and it is Merry CHRISTmas.  Christ is the reason, not gifts, snow, etc.  OK, I just needed to vent I feel better now.

Still Here

Well I am still here.  I just have had nothing to post about here lately.  Since I am no longer doing political posts, and don’t really want to post about Tiger Woods, there hasn’t been a lot to post about.  God is still the King and is still on his throne.  I’ll get back with you guys after something comes to mind!
