For Your Consideration

Sorry about the brief haitus there. In the midst of work, family visits, and one very vocal, sleepless baby, (etc., etc.) I fell out of the blogosphere. Now that my "blog fast" is over, I've got a couple topics I'm looking forward to covering.

In the meantime, though, there are exerpts two postings from other blogs I think you should take a look at. I thought they were worthy of consideration. Check out the following:

Mistyping the NAME :: by D. Griffiths
I was just typing and accidently wrote "Gof." Sure, the "F" key is right next to the "D" key. And sure, the designation "God" is derived from the germanic tribes reached by the first Roman missionaries and has no inherent holiness as a word. Yet, that simple mistype sent a shudder through my heart. We are so careless with the name of the Lord. God, gosh, Jeeze, and further, more profane designations, pepper the vernacular. But I don't care to bemoan that old complaint. I want to draw your attention to the frivolity with which we write and type words that refer to the God of all the world... READ THE ENTIRE POST >>

Too Much to Say :: by M. Wireman
Matt. 12:34 - For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.
I say all this to say to myself, you, and other folks out there speaking and typing out a deluge of words, be careful. I look all around the internet and see frivolous words being spouted off. All the ridiculous posts will be called to account. Even if you don't blog, the words you speak in solitude will be brought before you for you to give an account. Don't waste your breath, invest it into eternity... READ THE ENTIRE POST >>

Greetings my brother.

Thank you for visiting my blog and for your kind comment.

"I think that the worst thing I can do is remain quiet and let this wave go by without attempting to put my hand to the clay and mold what thoughts are formed."

I liked this deep down. You express yourself quite eloquently.

You are a very good writer.

I loved reading about your new adventure into fatherhood. It brought me back in a snap. Mine are 6 and 8 now.

Your son is absolutely beautiful!!

Congratulations proud pappa (and to the Mrs.).

It's comforting to know that someone like you with a good, honest, pure heart shall be one to teach and guide this precious vessel.

You have my attention, admiration and respect sir.

Don't let go of your written voice.

God bless and watch over you and yours friend.
