I had an awful day today. My new assistant decided to quit. No notice, no warning, nothing. A man.... a retired navy, respectful, mature, responsible....man. As far as I knew, everything was going great. The store was getting better, I was actually beginning to get some relief....then today he hit me with it. I never saw it coming.
This man, who came to work every day, gave me his loyalty, his word, his guarantee that he was going to help me.
This man, who I respected, who I trusted, who I felt was going to help me so much did this.
Goes to show you that man will always let you down...
But there is One Man who won't fail you...I know I don't have to say His name...but I will...Jesus
Jesus, I know you are the only man to trust, and for whatever reason I am going through all this heartache, stress, and troubles that you are with me.

One more moment is all that she needs,
Yet that "one more moment" causes her heart to bleed
The guilt she feels is ripping her in two,
She prays the feelings will end, yet they continue
Desiring to let the emotions out, but knowing it can't be,
For it would only hurt others, this she plainly sees
Is it known but just not spoken this secret inside her soul?
How many more years will this secret have control?

on Haiti
Many have started donating to the people of Haiti since the earthquake. Am I not practicing Christianity when I am thinking..."If they believed in God and followed Him instead of their gods, maybe they wouldn't be in that situation"?

on Satan's sin
I've been studying our adversary, Satan, and I have a thought...So bear with me...
Am I correct in saying that pride in itself isn't a sin? It's actually how we allow pride to work in us as did Satan.
That being asked...then pride, anger, lust, etc...were all created from the beginning. What I'm trying to say is for Satan to have allowed his pride to cause him to do his own will, as stated in Isaiah 14:13,14, then the presence of pride had to have been there beforehand.
Does that make sense?
God created ALL things.
