God is Good.......
In my church we are very familiar wit the phrase God is good. When someone says "God is good" - we respond "All the time". When someone says "All the Time" we respond with " God is good". It seems so mechanical, so ordinary. My pastor this Sunday talked about a minister that went to another country to speak to a church. He said " God is good" and the people went crazy, just so excited that they whooped and hollered for several minutes. He never really got to minister because the people were so excited to hear " God is good". We are so spoiled to know the fact that God is good. We hear it like a commercial jingle that gets stuck in you head- 800-588-2300 empireeeeee- just the one that came to mind :O). Sometimes we get so focused on the latest revelation or teaching that we forget the basics - God is good. God created the family unit to show how He loves us- the loving father is how He presents Himself to us. What kind of father would go to his child's baseball game and boo him if he fell. A good father would encourage his children to keep going. That's how God is. When we fall He is right there encouraging us to get up and try again. The Bible says " There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus". God is a good God. He loves us - in fact He died for us while we were yet sinners the Bible says. The Bible says - "Every good and perfect gift comes from the Father" - our loving Father. I just wanted to remind you today that God truly is a good God.

Hey I just wanna remind you of how much i am thankful that you save dmy life. It takes more than just a friend to risk their life against a pack of wild bears. Don't let anyone say your life means nothing, because if it were not for you i could never have raised so much money to support the ACLU. God Bless
Where the frick are you make a post dangit, and what about some pics.
Just kidding.
There is a small piece of me that cries at the thought of your shame, yet the larger part of me only grins as it watches you croutched alone in the shadows. Do not, I beg of you, restrain your emotion as it will only serve to fight back in its moment of weakness. I laugh, ha, and then, as if not moved by thought or emotion I strike. I will leave you with a merry chrismas from some who has far to much time on his hands. I bid you peace.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Write something dangit, and put a picture with it.
