Are You Ashamed of God?
I FIND IT INTERESTING THAT A HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPAL CAN SEE THE PROBLEM,
BUT OUR SOCIETY CANNOT. IF I OFFEND ANYONE BY THIS, I REALLY DON'T
APOLOGIZE.
Subject: Tennessee Football
This is a statement that was read over the PA system at the football
game at Roane County High School , Kingston , Tennessee , by school
Principal, Jody McLeod
"It has always been the custom at Roane County High School football
games, to say a prayer and play the National Anthem, to honor God and
Country."
Due to af recent ruling by the Supreme Court, I am told that saying a
Prayer is a violation of Federal Case Law. As I understand the law at
this time, I can use this public facility to approve of sexual
perversion and call it "an alternate life style," and if someone is
offended, that's OK.
I can use it to condone sexual promiscuity, by dispensing condoms and
calling it, "safe sex." If someone is offended, that's OK.
I can even use this public facility to present the merits of killing an
unborn baby as a "viable! means of birth control." If someone is
offended, no problem...
I can designate a school day as "Earth Day" and involve students in
activities to worship religiously and praise the goddess "Mother Earth"
and call it "ecology.."
I can use literature, videos and presentations in the classroom that
depicts people with strong, traditional Christian convictions as "simple
minded" and "ignorant" and call it "enlightenment.."
However, if anyone uses this facility to honor GOD and to ask HIM to
Bless this event with safety and good sportsmanship, then Federal Case
Law is violated.
This appears to be inconsistent at best, and at worst, diabolical.
Apparently, we are to be tolerant of everything and anyone, except GOD
and HIS Commandments.
Nevertheless , as a school principal, I frequently ask staff and
students to abide by rules with which they do not necessarily agree. For
me to do otherwise would be inconsistent at best, and at worst,
hypocritical... I suffer from that affliction enough unintentionally. I
certainly do not need to add an intentional transgression..
For this reason, I shall "Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's,"
and refrain from praying at this time.
" However, if you feel inspired to honor, praise and thank GOD and ask
HIM,in the name of JESUS, to Bless this event, please feel free to do
so.. As far as I know, that's not against the law----yet."
One by one, the people in the stands bowed their heads, held hands with
one another and began to pray.
They prayed in the stands. They prayed in the team huddles. They prayed
at the concession stand and they prayed in the Announcer's Box!
The only place they didn't pray was in the Supreme Court of the United
States of America- the Seat of "Justice" in the "one nation, under GOD."
Somehow, Kingston , Tennessee Remembered what so many have forgotten. We
are given the Freedom OF Religion, not the Freedom FROM Religion. Praise
GOD that HIS remnant remains!
JESUS said, "If you are ashamed of ME before men, then I will be ashamed
of you before MY FATHER.."

Aftermath
The flood that hit Metro Manila brought havoc to tens and thousands of families. Some lost their homes,while others are still in the process of getting "it" all back together - cleaning their homes which were submerged in flood waters.
A nephew has lost all of this material possessions when the flash flood hit his house. He, his wife and their daughter were not able to save anything, only themselves. Their two cars are out there somewhere for the strong current took the cars parked in front of their house. The sad thing about the cars are that they are brand new and the insurance does not cover fortuitous events.
My nephew is considering used cars options now. Either he sells the cars or buy a car through it. He said he has been checking out deals online as it's easier. An option to rent or lease is also offered on the site as options to buy new or used cars. He said there are also competitively rated insurances offered too. I suggested that whatever he decides on, buy used or new, he should get an insurance that includes fortuitous events clause.

The Law of the Garbage Truck
This was sent to me by a friend. I'd like to share it with you.
One day I hopped in a taxi and we took off for the airport. We were driving in the right lane when suddenly a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his brakes, skidded, and missed the other car by just inches! The driver of the other car whipped his head around and started yelling at us.
My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean he was really friendly. So I asked, 'Why did you just do that? This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!' This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call, 'The Law of the Garbage Truck.'
He explained that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment. As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump it and sometimes they'll dump it on you. Don't take it personally.
Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. Don't take their garbage and spread it to other people at work, at home, or on the streets.
The bottom line is that successful people do not let garbage trucks take over their day. Life's too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so... Love the people who treat you right. Pray for the ones who don't. Life is ten percent what you make it and ninety percent how you take it!

Eden Outreach Center
I just met an amazing person online. He's young(not yet 30), married and with three wonderful kids. He's currently living in a small town in Argentina with his family. He came to Argentina from the United States over two years ago to do the Lord's work.
You might want to check out Eden Outreach Center to know more about his mission. In this time of high technology and a, sometimes, hedonistic approach in life, few people his age has the strength and tenacity to pursue the kind of work this young man has committed himself to do. Please find it in your heart to hear what he has to say.

I Need a New Pair Eyeglasses
I got my latest pair of prescription eyeglasses about a year ago. Working and staring at the computer screen the better part of the day has (I think) further deteriorated my eyes. I need a new pair of eyewear again and that means getting a pair of $ 8 Rx eyeglasses like the one on the right. Nice pair huh?! My last prescription eyeglasses cost me a lot But! getting a pair from Zenni's is one way on How You Can Start Spending Smart I've been browsing the site for some real cool and hip.
