Interesting comment from someone who left the church

"We’re tired of belonging to a group that pretends to minister to the poor, when over 50% of tithes go to producing weekly two-hour entertainment for bored people in pews in a building that sits mostly empty the rest of the week. We’re sick of associating with a group that treats people like dirt and uses scare tactics so they’ll come to Christ. We’re running away from a place that abuses children and tries to cover it up. Yes, we do want to sin. We want to give full civil rights to gays and lesbians."

Sometimes God breaks things...

This might be my new verse:

"Though the fig tree should not blossom,
   nor fruit be on the vines,
the produce of the olive fail
   and the fields yield no food,
the flock be cut off from the fold
   and there be no herd in the stalls,
yet I will rejoice in the LORD;
   I will take joy in the God of my salvation."

-Habakkuk 3:17-18

The things you find on Facebook...

The following is a little rant someone had on a Facebook cause wall:

“God started this country and our principles have long been on HIM. We have lived every detail through him. Everything we did and do is because of HIM. To have GOD in our liives makes us better human beings to each other and our job alot easier. When you are in school , you start your day with a pledge under God and you feel so good the rest of the day! Our court system starts off the day praying the first thing and many other jobs do the same. It's wonderful to have God in our lives and workplaces. This is what is wrong with this country. They have taken God out of everything and it is falling apart fast. Everyone is not nice to each other and everyone is for themselves. When you have no religion and no bible which this country was founded on,we have nothing but a selfish bunch of people thinking of themselves only. Put GOD and the Bible back in our schools. That is what's missing everywhere you go. People are craving for it. They want it and the men who are fighting and dying for our country want it back in our lives. NO one has any right to take that away from us or our great United States of America. The ones who do not like it NEED to LEAVE this country if they have a problem. We don't need you here if you cannot accept God. HE was here long before you were and the people love him in the greatest country our USA. GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!!” -a person on Facebook.
