Maggie Johnston I miss you.

What is the age of your cat? What is the age of your car? Have you any grey hair? Who do you miss? This is turning out be be one of my worst blogs but if I am to be true to the inspiration that brought me here I must be true to the person who has long been not a part of my life, Maggie Johnston. I could write a song about you Maggie, how we all grow old, I could write a poem how we were once great friends, I could write a book how we were once great lovers, but in the time of eternity there is one thing that matters, how well did you know me? When the grey hair has come, I will still be dreaming, when the love has ceased, I will be thinking about you. When Christmases have come and gone I'll be living in my own little precious place with a window open, and the fire kindled, Will you come home? Maggie Johnston.

Allot has transpired since I last talked to you, just as time passes there is so much to do. I found the meaning of life, I rode a bike, I feel in love, not once but twice. But Christian girls are not the same, they are more than words can say because we are one and the same. We read our bibles and can talk for hours, Maggie I wish you were a christian girl. That being true I know we would not be together, there is not much two sinners can share under heaven, yes Maggie I've been in love, with the Lord and his people, and two candle light girls. If I had to walk this path alone Maggie, it would be a frightening thing and sometimes it still is.

But I have the light and It's going to be alright, oh and I have hope I have the word of God. Maggie I don't know where you stand with all this religion in my hand, but I offer it up to you as one friend to another, oh Maggie Johnston oh won't you come home. I'll see you in December.

this is mike.

Catholic Identity.

I was born into the Catholic Church and was baptized as an infant, I had my first communion and reconciliation as a child, and was confirmed as a teenager. Although I was never devout, I accepted Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Saviour when I was 21 through an evangelical Christian radio ministry, which in turn gave new life to my Catholic faith. Although I remained a Catholic, I identified as a born again Christian. It wasn’t until much later in my life that I learned the difference between the two denominations and what they taught about being born again. Regardless, there was a significant change in my life back then, which continues to this day. Being Catholic is much like an identity to me and I remember growing up under the papacy of St. Pope John Paul II. The culture I grew up in was largely affected by his papacy, and the way the culture viewed the church was significantly different from the way the current culture views it. Growing up, the pope didn’t try to be rele...

Age of Brokenness.

We are living in an age of brokenness, no matter what age you are, you probably have been touched with relationships falling apart, which causes more and more people to live in isolation. In this generation there is less of an incentive to heal and reconcile relationships, but that doesn’t excuse the amount of people who are broken. Why people don’t seem to be motivated to heal relationships is because our beliefs about faith and God have changed, really giving us less of an incentive to do what our religion says. If I act from my personal beliefs, but the person that I am responding to has abandoned religious beliefs, than the response to my wanting things to be better can be misinterpreted and rejected then by someone else. Generally when a society has expectations about broken relationships, loneliness and isolation, and the beliefs are generally accepted, society becomes a more compassionate society, because all value the same things. When religious values are undermined and ...

The Biblical Meaning of “Life in the Spirit.”

“Life in the Spirit” is an example that the Apostle Paul gives in the book of Romans starting in chapter 5 and going through to chapter 8. He begins by telling us we are justified by faith (5:1), and have gained access by faith into the grace of God (5:2). We have been delivered from God’s wrath (5:9) and we have been reconciled to God through the death of His Son (5:10). He goes on to explain that through Adam all die (5:12), and that the free Gift of God brings justification and righteousness to the believing sinner (5:15-17). Through our conversion we are baptized into Christ and into his death, which frees us from the law and makes us dead to sin (6:2-4). He explains that just as Christ was raised from the dead, we are given new life in Christ (6:4). Our old unregenerate self was crucified with Christ so that our body of sin might be done away with (6:5-6). Because we have died to sin, we now submit ourselves to God being that we are now under grace, not the law (6:8-1...
