CREATED BY GOD, MURDERED BY ABORTIONIST.

 Coral in the ocean is not just beautiful - it is an animal  which is often described as  "just a clump of polyps".

God made that. In His majestic mind and awesome creativity He made that so He could reveal His nature and omnipotence.

We marvel at such beauty and prolific expressive genius.

But what about you? He created you and you are a million times more beautiful than the coral you see.

Just listen to the Psalmist in No. 139. This is how God sees us.

13 For you formed my inward parts;

you knitted me together in my mother's womb.

14 I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.[a]

Wonderful are your works;

my soul knows it very well.

15 My frame was not hidden from you,

when I was being made in secret,

intricately woven in the depths of the earth.

16 Your eyes saw my unformed substance;

in your book were written, every one of them,

the days that were formed for me,

when as yet there was none of them.

Got goosebumps yet? You are more than a clump of polyps, you are an eternal soul created in the image of God.

And so is every child living in a womb today. So were you when you were curled up inside your mom's belly awaiting the miracle of birth. You were part of God's creation.

How do you think He feels when an abortionist murders in cold blood the beautiful human being He worked so hard to create?

We are fearfully and wonderfully made. God actually knitted you

together in your mother’s womb, forming your heart, your lungs, your rib cage, your kidneys and bladder, all 25 feet of your small and large intestines wound so carefully along the walls of your torso, adding the arms and legs, even down to the tiny tiny toes with their fragile and beautiful nails. He designed the color of your hair and added the sparkle to your beautifully colored eyes.

You were handcrafted by God. Doesn’t that blow your mind????

But that’s not all. God’s eyes looked you over very carefully to check out His workmanship and then He pronounced you “Good’ as He did all His creation in the Book of Genesis.

And then,

and then,

yes, even after all this, he counted the days He was giving you, the days He had planned out for you, every minute, every second, every hour, every year even before “there was none of them” - even before you had lived even one minute outside the womb.

God made the choice to fashion you after His own image. He took the time to do it perfectly. And you proudly proclaim that YOU believe in abortion? HOW DARE YOU LOOK GOD IN HIS FACE AND SAY YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO DESTROY WHAT HE HAS MADE? HOW DARE YOU????

COMMUNION ON THE MOON

Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow. (Melody Beattie) Americans need a day dedicated to gratitude. I have noticed that in the lineup of most of our holidays that Thanksgiving is perhaps the one least given over to secularism - the one we still observe in a traditional fashion. We need it to keep our focus clear and to teach our children what it means to be thankful for family, friendship and faith. We need a time to gather around the table with extended family and enjoy turkey and dressing and gravy, two kinds of potatoes, cranberries, hot rolls, green bean casserole, pumpkin pie and whipped cream. We need it, not for the calories, but to create an awareness that there are those who don’t have those blessings, because in the hectic pace of our everyday lives we tend to forget those in need. Family and food are important, but above all else, Americans need a rededication to our faith. Faith brought the pilgrims to the ne...

ANNIE, THE CAT'S MEOW

  I first met Annie back in February 2004 after Milan told me to let him know what I wanted for for Valentine’s Day and he promised would get it for me no matter what it was. He has often joked that he should have have put some conditions on that. But he didn’t, and so I headed straight to the Humane Society animal shelter. It had been two long years since we had put our beloved Maine Coon cat to sleep, a big pile of what appeared to be nothing but fur, but had a huge heart hidden inside. We had named him Ollie in honor of Col. Oliver North who was our news hero at the time. I entered the cat compound at the Humane Society. There were only two cats inside, a brown tabby who ran to the other side of the pen away from me, and a little black and white girl who came running over to me and when I picked her up, she snuggled her head under my chin and began to purr. It was love at first sight. She was new there and they had not given her a name so I called her Annie. She was alway...
  THE TASTES OF SUMMER Tender green onion blades,  tipped at the end With a white marble bulb, their flavors do blend With soup or a sandwich, I do recommend For these are the tastes of summer. Cucumbers growing green, awaiting their turn For slicing with vinegar and sugar, I yearn So cool and refreshing, my praises they earn These too are the tastes of summer. Sun ripened tomatoes, So juicy and sweet A smidgeon of salt, such a heavenly treat Just thinking of them makes my heart skip a beat A favorite taste of summer. Hot corn on the cob with the tantalizing name Of peaches and cream, it’s in my hall of fame From one end to the other of the cob I exclaim That this is the true taste of summer. Green beans, new potatoes, cooked up in a pan Just simmering slowly all day is my plan Some salt, bacon drippings, there’s no better than The taste of fresh beans in the summer. Green lettuce wilted down with some crisp bacon bits Add some vinegar, and sugar, it’s always a hit I have to a...
