Backlink-smaglink

What with the bots these days? They keep telling me my backlinks don't work. Initially I thought they were valid, but when I replied saying they were fixed....

God knows how many p**** enlargement, hooker and god-knows-what-else services started popping up.

Stupid bots.

From Rant to Plagiarism: the story of this blog.

Once upon a time I was crazily posting up newsletters. This came quite a bit off from the days it first started out as a rant blog.

Then it was left to rot til November.

DNA suggests China Chinese originated from Southeast Asia

Honestly I don't give a damn where we come from, cos at the end of the day if we can't see each other as human beings worthy in everyone's eyes,
it does not change a damn thing.

What Kind of Book Are You Writing?  
 Today's Truth "I will be careful how I act and will not sin by what I say. I will be careful what I say around wicked people. I became very angry inside, and as I thought about it, my anger burned. So, I spoke" (Psalm 39:1, 3 NCV).

Friend To Friend A young lady named Sally relates an experience she had in a Seminary class taught by Dr. Smith, a teacher who was well known for his elaborate object lessons. One particular day, Sally walked into the classroom and instantly knew they were going to have a lot of fun. On the wall was a big target and on a nearby table was a large stack of darts. Dr. Smith told the students to draw a picture of a person they disliked or someone who had made them angry and he would allow them to throw darts at the person's picture.

Sally's girlfriend drew a picture of a girl who had stolen her boyfriend. Another friend drew a picture of his little brother who was a constant irritation. Sally drew a picture of a former friend who had betrayed her. As Sally remembered the pain and hurt of that broken friendship, she put a great deal of detail into her drawing, even drawing pimples on the face. When her picture was completed, Sally sat back and gazed at her work, pleased with the overall effect she had achieved.

The class lined up and began throwing darts. Laughter and shouts of success rang out as each dart found its target. Some of the students threw the darts with such force that their targets were ripping apart. Sally was looking forward to her turn but was disappointed when Dr. Smith called time and asked the students to return to their seats.

As Sally sat thinking about how angry she was because she didn't have a chance to throw any darts at her target, Dr. Smith began removing the target from the wall. Underneath the target was a picture of Jesus. A complete hush fell over the room as each student viewed the mangled picture of Jesus; holes and jagged marks covering His face.

Dr. Smith quietly said, "Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me" (Matthew 25:40, KJV). No other words were necessary. The tear-filled eyes of each student focused only on the picture of Christ. 

Words are like seeds. What we plant will grow. The words we speak are powerful and will either build up or destroy. Words can diffuse anger and turn tragedy into triumph. The right word, spoken at the right time and in the right way can bring peace in the midst of confusion. God gives us "spiritual radar" so we can assess a situation and speak the right word for that circumstance, but how often do we speak before we check the radar?

·         A judge utters a few words and a guilty man is taken to death row.
·         A friend speaks a word of encouragement and a desperate heart finds hope.
·         A mother lashes out with angry words and the light in her child's eyes is gone.
·         A wife offers a word of forgiveness and a marriage is saved.
·         A gossip makes a phone call and a reputation is destroyed.
·         A teenager says "no" and changes the course of her life.

It has been estimated that most people speak enough words in one week to fill a large book of 500 pages which, in the average lifetime, would amount to somewhere around 3000 volumes or 1,500,000 pages.

What kind of book are you writing today with your words?

Give God a Round of Applause!
 
Today's Truth"Clap your hands, all peoples! Shout to God with the voice of triumph and songs of joy" (Psalm 47:1 Amplified Version). 

Friend to Friend Steve and I boarded a Cog Train for a scenic ride to the top of Pike's Peak in Colorado Springs, Colorado.  It is the most visited mountain in North American - a hiker's paradise.  But since going up and down my stairs at home is about as much hiking as I like to do, we opted for the train to chug us to the top.  This stately mountain stands as a majestic backdrop to Colorado Springs and the Garden of the Gods rock formations.  As we clicked along the 8.9 miles of railway, a tour guide pointed out various areas of interest and wildlife along the way.  Suddenly, the train slowed to a crawl and a chorus of ooohs and aaahs rumbled through the boxcars.  In hushed silence, we gazed at a herd of Big Horned sheep congregating to our right.

The six-foot male grayish-brown rams with white fluffy rumps gathered in a circle like spectators at a boxing match.  Two males stood head-to-head in the center of the ring, eyeing each other with studied determination.  Smaller female rams with diminutive spiked horns grazed nonplussed over to the side.  It seems it was mating season and the males were vying for the ladies' attention.

A crack filled the air as the two males ran toward each other and furiously butted heads.  With front feet leaving the ground, the hefty rams twisted and turned interlocking horns until one retreated from battle.  The sound of cameras clicking mixed with cracking rams horns as we dared not interfere with the ritual of thousands of years.  Time and time again the males butted heads with one thing on their minds - the right to spawn with the seemingly disinterested females grazing nearby and trot away with the spoils. (Oh, we ladies can be so coy at times).

After viewing this incredible display of God's creation, the train continued its trek up the mountain and the onlookers broke out in cheers.  The tour guide enthusiastically shouted, "Folks, I want you to give yourself a big hand!  I've never seen such a display on any of my trips up the mountain.  Give yourselves a round of applause for seeing this magnificent sight today!"   The entire coach broke out in wild cheers, applause, and congratulatory back slaps.  Well not the entire coach. 

I looked at Steve and said, "Why in the world would we give ourselves applause? Why are these people clapping?  We had absolutely nothing to do with it.  God placed that in front of us for our enjoyment. He allowed a sneak peek at His divine creation.  All we did was decide to get on the train."

Then I heard God speak to my heart.  Happens all the time.

O dear friend.  God has given us an incredible gift of salvation.  We neither earned it, merited it, nor deserved it. If we could, it would not be referred to as a gift.  Salvation is not something that we need to congratulate ourselves for.  We actually have nothing to do with it.  All we did was decide to get on the train. But praise God, He has promised us the ride of our lives filled with incredible displays of His splendor. We don't have to earn it.  We simply have to accept it.

As we begin this New Year, let's give God the round of applause He deserves each and every day!

Let's Pray (As you pray today, consider standing to your feet and giving God a hearty round of applause.  The Bible calls this a praise offering!  Clap your hands all you people!)

Dear Lord, I am speechless because of Your goodness to me.  So today, I stand, lift my hands, and offer up a rip-roaring round of praise-clapping hands to You! In Jesus' Name!  Amen!

Now It's Your Turn When was the last time you took credit for something God did in your life?  Boy, that was a personal question, wasn't it?  I'm asking myself that very question too.

As you go throughout the day, make a list of all the reasons God deserves applause.
If you have children, ask them to do the same.  Then at mealtime, share your lists.  Consider giving God a round of applause as a family!
