Mandarin: Our 2nd Lnguage

"It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in man. Psalm 118:8

Wake up and smell the very expensive gas fumes America.

There is only one Savior.

In the words of Tina Turner, we don't need another hero.

You who voted with your heart four years ago need to examine yourselves and vote with your head.

After you get a real education on our fleeting freedoms under this administration.

We owe China 1.2 Trillion dollars.

China!

And have no way of paying it back.

They are buying billions of dollars in US Treasuries with every intention of OWNING us, and Obama trips over himself in blundering apologies for America being America.

We are in trouble kids and while this nation can not even make ends meet and desperately needs a solution, so many are still sitting blind, deaf, and dumb clinging to the unmet promises of Hope.

Am I sad  that the Evangelical Christian's vote hangs in the ever changing wind?

Yes.

Does Romney get me excited?

Far From.

But I am so scared of these next four years that I am buying a 357 Revolver, moving to the North Georgia Mountains, growing my own food, and spending the limited down time I now possess, watching You Tube tutorials on how to generate wind and sun power so I can fall off the grid and not be touched by his social agendas and this grossly obese and entitled state he's fostering.

"OUT OF THE RUINS, OUT FROM THE WRECKAGE, CAN`T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE THIS TIME." T.T.

Restore and preserve America, a nation under God.

You've got seven months, will you make the right choice?

Adoration All Day Long

"It is in the process of being worshipped that God communicates His presence to men." C.S. Lewis

So let Him show up...

The New Covenant

"When he had received the drink, Jesus said, "It is finished." With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit." John 19:30

The Holy Spirit rained down on the hearts and lives of a City Light Church congregation last night, bringing those of us to our knees and to our feet in complete adoration for the Glory of God, the Light of the World, Jesus Messiah, Emmanuel. It poured out in the streets and over the searching and lost East Village crowd, saying Come, Come, Come rest easy in His finished work.

It was a Great Friday.

Consequences of Sin

"For it is impossible, in the case of those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, and have shared in the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the age to come, and then have fallen away, to restore them again to repentance, since they are crucifying once again the Son of God to their own harm and holding him up to contempt" Hebrews 6:4-6

I dreamed I tore a piece of crispy potato off the top of my over sized pomme fritte I was eating and threw it on the marble stairs in which I was rapidly walking.  A Puerto Rican cleaning woman rushed through a Grand Central quality crowd and scolded me.
I told her it was just a cracker, but she insisted I save her the trouble.

When I retraced my steps and picked up my french fry bit, it occurred to me that it could have easily been squished by the sole of a newly polished shoe and tracked into a freshly clean Brownstone foyer, smeared onto a Persian rug, then licked up by the family cat, and puked back up in a pile of dove grey hair and spit.

While a cracker crumb would have just been pulverized into smaller crumbs, crushed on the very white marble in which they scattered, eventually brushed off into the sewer grates, and what tiny specks weren't carried into the air, would dissolve in a puddle of the city's ooze and cease to exist.

This is my subconscious answer to... what's the difference?
