Just Enough

Here are some things I know:
  • God is faithful
  • God is merciful
  • He is forgiving
  • He loves me
That's enough for me today. I will most likely need another reminder tomorrow...but today is good.

A Little Humor to Keep You Warm


I Can't Blog Because My Fingers are Frozen

It's -20 this morning. Yes, I said NEGATIVE TWENTY!

Pardon me for yelling. I'm just trying to keep warm.

That's without the windchill.

-50+ with the windchill, since the wind is blowing at over 20 mph steadily.

I am staying inside and drinking lots of coffee.

Mini Road-Trip

We are heading southwest to Dickinson, North Dakota this weekend to visit our friends at Calvary Chapel and share a little about Gospel for Asia during the Sunday service.

I'm looking forward to 3 hours in the car with nothing to do but catch up on a bit of reading!

Quote of the Day: on the Wisdom of the Ages


The venerable dead are waiting in my library to entertain me and relieve me from the nonsense of surviving mortals.



Or, in the words of our pastor at Calvary Chapel Omaha:


If they ain't dead, they ain't read.

~Pastor Steve Johnson

A Sad Anniversary


January 22, 1973
The upholding of Roe v Wade by the Supreme Court

I've noticed that everybody that is for abortion has already been born.
~Ronald Reagan, quoted in New York Times, 22 September 1980
There are no easy answers but there are simple answers. We must have the courage to do what we know is morally right.

Quote of the Day: Charles Spurgeon

Here's another gem from the Prince of Preachers, Charles Spurgeon.

He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy. ~Proverbs 28:13

Here is the way of mercy for a guilty and repenting sinner. He must cease from the habit of covering sin.
This is attempted
  • by falsehood, which denies sin;
  • by hypocrisy, which conceals it;
  • by boasting, which justifies it;
  • and by loud profession, which tries to make amends for it.
The sinner's business is to confess and forsake. The two must go together.
