love: EXTREME LOVE. - 07/09/08 11:33 AM
I get a kick out of the extreme TV programs being aired for example, Extreme Makeover, Deadliest Catch, Man Vs Wild or even Dirty Jobs. Even though I have a heavy crush on Mike Rowe, why in the world do I need to know about the art of finding slimy eels, how to examine a dirty diaper for bad smells or even WHY I would want to or fishing for crawfish in a swamp? Extreme? Indeed. These shows feed the curious mind, tap into the adventurous side of ones personality and invoke a sense of what we are truly missing as inhabitants of our wonderful earth!.

love: FAST FOOD OR SOUL FOOD. What feeds your needs? - 07/07/08 07:41 PM
A few days ago at my favorite cafe a woman walked in with her friends. She commented to one of them that she wasn't feeling well. Her friend offered a soft reply, "Do you want a bagel?" At first I thought she heard the woman incorrectly. Instead she was trying to comfort her with food -- a bagel none the less. Let's see -- that's 8 grams of fat, 76 grams of carbs and 949 mg of sodium for a whopping 420 calories of fun stuff! Way to get a bagel belly! ... and what a substitute for a tired body and a weary … (2 comments)

love: For the Love of God, Part 2 -- I never found the right guy, and you never found the wrong donut! - 07/04/08 04:26 PM
Today as I was type, type, typing away, I heard an episode of Rosanne on the TV in the background. I do not watch television often but as the station was about to change I caught the end of an episode that made me think.
She and her sister (I forget her name right now) were talking about their dysfunctional life. Rosanne said, "that's probably why you were never married and why I'm so fat!" Her sister in reply said, "No, it's because I never found the right guy and you never found the wrong donut!"
I can relate … (12 comments)

love: Tonight's no title blog. :) - 06/30/08 09:48 PM
Within the past 5 days I had in front of me a choice to make -- one which seemed right, looked right and in other people's opinion, it was right. Having walked with Jesus since April 1982, I have learned through trial after trial that without the peace of God, I'm headed for a fall or at the very least, a bumpy ride in whatever decision I have to make.
Tonight I began to feel weary from these past emotional and exhausting days which shredded my peace and created such turmoil within my spirit and soul that I couldn't sleep, think or concentrate. After coming … (6 comments)

love: TRUE LOVE - 06/17/08 12:55 PM
To walk in true love is to abide in the righteousness of God by His example. Knowing the character of God [love] prompts believers to see with their spirit those things in the world [the lust of the flesh, self, pride] and to recognize when this is operating in one's life.
Self-exalting behavior is not walking in love. It is also nothing more than the desire to elevate oneself over and above God's Word. Let's look at this. Do you need to pat yourself on the back for your accomplishments rather than seeking God's approval? Are you less than content when … (15 comments)

love: What Will Your Legacy Be? - 05/25/08 03:47 PM
What will you leave as your legacy to your family, friends, even clients? Consider these popular people and say the first thing that comes to your mind:
TIGER WOODS ANDY REID DAVID COOK From golf to football to American Idol, these people will leave a legacy -- but will it be enough for eternity? No amount of money or fame on this earth can compare to leaving the one legacy God counts as most important. In 1 Corinthians 13:13, Paul speaks about it -- "And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love." NKJV
I choose love -- … (15 comments)

love: Can we really love someone we do not know? - 05/23/08 05:05 AM
Is it possible to love someone we really do not know? The answer is a resounding yes! As believers, the depth of our love-relationship with Jesus grants us the ability [by His Spirit] to love the good, the bad and the ugly (figuratively speaking). But how do we get to that level of loving someone we do not really know?
The answer comes when we begin to develope intimacy with God. When we learn God's character [love] by spending time with Him we begin to love others by His standards, not ours. Take for example your relationship with your spouse. Through courtship with one … (24 comments)
