But I thought you said "a bus."

She said "let me out of this f#@! room or I'm going to kill myself!" Then she opened the window and jumped. She landed on the grass, picked herself up and started running. She ran to a catholic church, but they wouldn't let her in. She ran to an Anglican church, but they couldn't understand her. They asked her to stay, but she kept on running. She ran to the mall, but she had no money. She asked a stranger to buy her a coffee and he did. He said "What is your name?" She said "Jane." "Why are you running?" he said, " because they won't let me" she said. "They won't let you what?" he said. "They won't let me watch the tv, and my favourite show was on..running with the stars...have you seen it?" she said. "Can't say I have, but you seem to be very upset about this..is there anything else you like to do on a Thursday night?" he said with a wicked grin on his face. "I like to play baseball. Will you watch me play?" she said.

He picked up his computer, and closed it. He took Jane outside and showed her a big parking lot. He picked up a stick from off the ground, scrumpled up an old newspaper and threw it at her. Just then the police showed up. "We are looking for Jane Crumpet, she is thirteen years old and likes to play baseball, are you her?" the police said. " Why yes, that is me. My parents a bused me."

"I thought you said a bus."

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 Parable of the Ten Virgins.

 Matthew 25:1-13 I have discovered a remarkable interpretation of this parable that I would like to share with you. The story in the Bible goes like this:    “At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.   2  Five of them were foolish and five were wise.   3  The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take any oil with them.   4  The wise ones, however, took oil in jars along with their lamps.   5  The bridegroom was a long time in coming, and they all became drowsy and fell asleep. 6  “At midnight the cry rang out: ‘Here’s the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’ 7  “Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps.   8  The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.’ 9  “‘No,’ they replied, ‘there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy som...

The Existence of God

  Since the beginning of time, man has learned about the existence of God. It began in the Garden of Eden where Adam and Eve walked and talked with God, however when they sinned, they died spiritually and their closeness with God was severed. In Genesis 4:26 it reads “Seth also had a son, and he named him Enosh. At that time people began to call on the name of the LORD.” Seth was the third son of Adam and Eve, so it’s fair to say that not too long after mankind fell, we also called upon the Lord.   From that time until now, mankind was closer to God then, but it’s a modern shift that the world is in the state it is in now, mainly unbelief, because even 30 years ago from now, mankind was closer to God. It is also true that in ancient Israel’s history, there have been generations that fell away and forgot God, but in the time of the prophets Israel was never left without a word from the Lord. Many generations have come and gone, but there have been remarkable generations all thr...
