ABC's


A mother and father speak proudly about how smart there twin son and daughter are. The are young and still in elementary school.   They can read well and do math, above expected level.  Both will most likely graduate high school early and enter college while friends are still thinking about Winter formal dances and proms.

"We let them be creative and make his own decisions even express themselves. That's why we never tell them no."
 ..You're impressed.

"Before we eat," The Mother proudly says;  "Show us all your math tests from school"
 "No!  I don't want to!"
She whispers to you;  " All A's."

"Okay, show Pastor how you can read."
" NOOOOOOO!!!"
 (they don't say no,  the kids do. Hmm).
 "Do you want to go on the computer?"
 "Yes."

They say: "Well, that went well."
You say: "Yes it did.  They really enjoy that computer."

Why Am I here?

1. EXALT.  We are to love and worship God. He is worthy of our worship of lifestyle and singing.

2. EQUIP.    We are to teach/learn the actions and teaching of Christ, Making disciples.

3. ENCOURAGE.  we are to go along side building each other up using the gifts God gave us.

ENGAGE.   The follower of Christ is commissioned into the neighborhood and show and tell of God's love. 

The Bible says we are to Love God and love others!

Love and peace train.



A few People around the world are reading this.  I think that is awesome.  We have an opportunity to speak peacefully and in unity.

******************************************************************************

The internet is a dangerous yet amazing venue for getting on board the peace train.  Peace not war, just communicating about personal interest and differences in personality. It does not matter where in the world you are.  You are my neighbor!

******************************************************************************

I know that faith in Christ is the answer. Jesus said that He gave his followers peace.  Not the peace the world gives but His peace!


                                             God loves you and so do I.  Peace!
