I haven't posted in a while. Not because anything has been wrong, but just because life has been a little busy and I'm having trouble seeing God working through things around me. Of course, He is, I'm just not doing well seeing it.
When the Supreme Court decided that same-sex "marriage" must be the law of the land, I was not surprised. I was not impressed, of course, but you'd have to be a fool to have been surprised at the ruling.
This year, the Japanese beetles in my garden have been atrocious. We have a policy of paying $0.05 per "bad" bug that the children kill in the garden. Tomato hornworms are $0.25, though, because of the size. Anyway...over the course of a week, my second son made $100!!! We finally had to drop the price because, as my dad said, you could have bought a LOT of green beans (which is what they were eating) with that money.
One day, I went out to look...and kill...I had my cup of soapy water, and I just tapped them from above, and they'd drop into the cup and drown. As I stared at the piles of beetles (some grouped by eights and tens!), I thought, "they're so consumed with sex, they fail to see the impending doom coming upon them."
Seems apropos for this time in our country, doesn't it? People are so concerned about having sex with whomever and whatever and how many of them, they're missing the real point - the end will come. Everyone's knees will bow. We will all confess that Christ is Lord.
Of course, that could flip to apply to Christians too....we're so worried about the sex sin that we fail to preach the Gospel to everyone - including ourselves.
