In the time that I been on leave from posting I have been giving some thought as to what new format I can establish when I begin posting again. I would like to produce something that has something for everyone, some type of thing for every taste. So tonight I am giving a run-down on every topic I expect to write on a regular basis.
Quotable and the Not So Quotable Quotes
An author, philosopher, or statesman can have no greater tribute than to be quoted while he is still lives, and no greater legacy than to be quoted after his death.
The more you forget, the more life becomes filled with surprises.
A Thought to Share
Usually this will be something I have posted in a discussion group such as this from Tuesday:
In John chapter 3, Jesus addresses a Jewish leader, a member of their highest ruling authority, the Sanhedrin. Nicodemus came to Jesus by night, probably in secret, probably to find out if Jesus was the Messiah. He never got as far as asking his first question. Jesus made a statement about being born again that occupied the rest of their conversation. The rebirth to which Jesus was referring was the rebirth of the spirit.
Unless a person comes to the place of spiritual rebirth he will never enter into the kingdom of heaven. The spirit of a newborn baby is spiritually dead. Like a dead body, a dead spirit can do nothing on its own.
To demonstrate His grace, God, out of His love for us, sent His only son Jesus to die that our dead spirits may live. It is only through accepting God's gift, His Son Jesus, that our spirits receive life, and that life will never end.
Read about the encounter in Jesus own words in John 3.
Humor
A couple times a week I will post something I have read or heard. Rarely will I belabor you with a joke I have written.
A Midweek Guide
On Wednesday or Thursday something to inspire or encourage. This week I have nothing prepared.
The Poet's Corner
Once a week I will find or write a piece of doggerel for those who like poems. I will try to make this a Saturday thing.
The Sunday Sermonettte
I have often wondered what it would be like to preach a sermon. Maybe once a month, if you will allow, I would like to try some short expose`.
It's News to Me
Items that may be of interest in the news. Often I am the last to know, but if I pick up on something that everyone may not have heard, I will pass it on here.
The Week's Best Link(s)
This has to be good. I won't post one every week unless it is.
The Friday Puzzle or Quiz
I won't promise to make it easy, but I'll try not to make it super hard either.
So that ought to be enough to keep me hopping and I'll do my best to hop to it every day. Do come back.
