Hey! I also goto RealityLA! It is great to find someone else on here that loves God and that is not far away from LA and goes to the same church!!
That’s awesome! What service do you go to? I’ll check out your blog!
Pascal said, ‘There is a ‘God-size vacuum’ within each of us that cannot be filled by people or things; it can only be filled by God.’ It is my experience that most CMC [Christian Middle Class] people believe Pascal. Or at least they want to, sort of, in an occasional way.
Let’s paraphrase Ecclesiastes 5:10-12, ‘the person who loves to shop never can shop enough. The person who loves to acquire never can acquire enough.’ It is the search for the Holy Grail. The ‘grail’ does not exist. The search is all that matters. So in our war we find that having something does not fill us. It is the implied promise of fulfillment in getting that thing that draws us!
Christian joy from the Gospel:
Given, not earned
Eternal, not temporal
Deep, not shallow
God-centered, not self-centered
Indestructible, not fragile
I have observed something else under the sun. The fastest runner doesn’t always win the race, and the strongest warrior doesn’t always win the battle. The wise sometimes go hungry, and the skillful are not necessarily wealthy. And those who are educated don’t always lead successful lives. It is all decided by chance, by being in the right place at the right time.
A few take aways from watching Gangs of New York:
1. There are naked scenes in here that I’m apparently too prude to take on ( nothing new here, just stating )
2. Why does everyone look greasy or sweaty all the time?
3. The only time I thought Cameron Diaz looked partially decent & classy…thinking the hair color & accent
4. Leonardo is superb as usual but get him decent hair extensions
5. I might have nightmares or flinch anytime I see a knife
Alright, that’s it. Back to buffering the movie on Hulu!
PRAY FOR US. WE ARE A HOT MESS.
