Basically, throw Momma off the train & make it national news to save my career? Typical Dem.

Very nice Appalachian small, town. Near Gatlinburg and SMNP. There's a cool bookstore called Our Place Books, Coffee & Unique Gifts. I used spend an hour or two browsing books, etc when we'd visit that area.

Should've taken I-49 toTexarkana, then I-30 towards Little Rock, then I-40 west to the turn to Fayetville. Longer distance-wise, but considering the weather & road conditions, he would have made it safely. He must've just Googled the directions, and took one of the shorter routes.

It's because of the Muslim invasion, but they won't say that.

Check to see if your employer offers taking the amount out of your check PRE-TAX. Can't remember the name or term for it right off. But It helps a little to not have to pay tax on income on the yearly childcare amount.

A good chapter to read is Hebrews 11 on faith. As you say, it's an inside conviction of something you cant see. Usually, it's eventually backed up by action. Life has a way of testing all of us. Our response, rather than the acual issue, is what is important. In ch 11, God tested Abraham. He came close to sacrificing his own son. God stopped him at the last minute. However, when God saw his faith and the level to which he was willing to go, He blessed Abraham and his descendants forever. As Believers, we become Abraham's descendant through faith in His Son, Jesus. If we respond in a lesser manner, He is faithful and gives us grace. Peter denied him 3 times just as Jesus foretold that he would. Peter said he'd never deny him. Sometimes, WE dont even know how we will respond till that moment arrives. After Peter denied him, he wept because he wasn't as strong as he thought. But Jesus still forgave him. He told Mary after He had risen, Go tell Peter. That basically tells you He forgave Peter and for him not feel shame because He overcame death. He meets us where we personally are, and we grow in his grace over time. It's that first step, however, that is important.

Very interesting from both a historical & spiritual viewpoint. It's also fascinating to watch Israel move closer to bring all this back with the red heifers, the Temple Institute, etc. One of the most amazing attributes of the Almighty that I'm just intrigued with, is His patience & grace. Now is the time of salvation, and with all the evil we see every where being revealed, He still wishes that none perish. His patience blows my mind. Hebrews basically states that if wrath and death was the result of the law, how much more with a better covenant. 2,000 years later, and the message is still the same. See your sin, turn and repent, believe in Jesus and His sacrifice for us, and walk as a new creation. Renew your mind in His Word. When you mess up, confess it to Him, and He is faithful in forgiving you.
