We live in a time that people are more inclined to obey an unlawful executive order than they are to follow a court order 🤦🏾♀️.
Dictators are created due to cruelty, cowardice, & compliance! IF THEIR ASSES will ignore the Supreme Court, we can definitely IGNORE HIM!
Pam Bondi said on Fox that the FBI’s arrest of a county judge is “sending a very strong message.” Yes, Pam, and that message is, this country is being ruled by fascist traitors.
Stop writing to impress everyone.
Start writing for one person who matters.
This has helped me through many writer’s blocks and maybe it’ll help you.

I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

Don't leave anything for later.
Later, the coffee gets cold.
Later, you lose interest.
Later, the day turns into night.
Later, people grow up.
Later, people grow old.
Later, life goes by.
Later, you regret not doing something... when you had the chance.

Of course advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this.
The Secretary is unfit to lead.

And they're wondering why more people aren't having children?

As a followup to my photo gallery of the addition to the historic library in New London, Ohio, I spoke to the library director about the $400,000 effort. This is a Carnegie library that dates back to 1916 at its current site

The Loneliness No One Talks About
No one warns you about the loneliness that comes with growing.
The silence when old friendships stop fitting, but new ones haven’t formed.
The ache of outgrowing places, conversations, even versions of yourself.
Growth is beautiful, but it can also be isolating.
Keep growing anyway. You’ll find your kindred spirits.
Pope Francis lifted the world as he led the Church with his profound moral voice. As he returns to God, may his call to humility and concern for the least among us continue to resound.

I refuse to be the kind of person who loses their mind over a delayed train or lets a spilled coffee set the tone for the whole day.
I want to be the one who stays composed, who sees the good even when things don’t go as planned. The kind of person who breathes through the little chaos and still finds beauty in how the day unfolds.
I want to be soft. I want to be steady.

This week I have learned a lot about the hard work that goes into getting a book prepared to go out into the world.
I no longer take for granted the hours that authors pour into their art.
And yet, despite the exhaustion, there is something marvelous about the process. Doing something you enjoy should breathe life and fulfillment into you. And the fulfillment of creating this story is reason enough to keep me pushing.
I think the love languages idea popularized by Dr. Chapman is helpful because it aids us in not only thinking of receiving love, but how others receive love best. Also, at times physical touch gets so much focus that other kinds of kindness and love get sidelined (although I'm from a huggy family). I also think of C.S. Lewis and his study of the Four Loves which we see in the Greek language. Finally I am inspired by Tolkien's linguistics, for example the Sindarin suffix -ndil which gets at the knight/squire bond. tolkiengateway.net/wiki…
Agree with all you said! I too have been thinking about Lewis’ Four Loves: they just might make it into a post later this week!
“I do not want to suggest that adherents of the same general worldview will agree on every issue. Even Christians who share beliefs on all essential issues may disagree on other major points. They may understand the relationship between human freedom and the sovereignty of God in different ways. They may disagree over how some revealed law of God applies to a current situation. They may squabble publicly over complex issues like national defense, capital punishment, and the welfare state, to sa…
What is the book of Genesis really telling us? A worthy question to study.
Appreciate this post. Even abuse must be forgiven in order to be truly free. The maturity to see a parent’s failings from a fuller perspective frees you from the past and allows you to love more as God loves us.
