Great investment opportunity in Andover!

Look at these lovely one bed flats which will soon be available.  OK, I admit, they don’t look great at the moment but when the developer has finished adding another level and then converting it fully this development will have 6 one bedroom flats, 3 of which have already been reserved.  They will be finished to a good specification, offer a decent amount of space and with the added benefit of a new 125 year lease as well as a 10 year warranty.

This side of town is very popular with tenants as its close to the train station, Portway Industrial Estates and easy access to the A303 and one bed properties are always popular.

A rent of £700pcm should be achieved giving a very health return of 5.8% on the more expensive option, minus your management fees.

Definitely worth a look!

Strength and Joy

It is very easy for me to talk long and loud about all the struggles we've been through in recent years. It is also easy for me to boast in the Lord, and what he has done to provide for us time and time again. I am still trying to understand, and though it is not something I will fully grasp in my time on this earth, that God has a purpose in the worst of times just as well as the best of times. I'd just assume skip the worst of times, wouldn't you? We gasp, we are stunned, we are rocked to our very core when something terribly unexpected happens. Why? Why now, God? We were just finding what we thought was our groove? We were just starting to get settled in, to get....comfortable. Ah, there it is. The realization, some glimpse of an understanding as to why God allows things to happen when they do. Do you know when God does His best work in us? When we are uncomfortable, completely broken and helpless, no state of being other than fully immersed in His presence and ready to listen. Be still, rest, listen. Focus, let go of every distraction--and this doesn't mean something bad, but even the good things in your life that could hinder our full and complete tuning in to what God has to say. Have we taken time to truly do that? We are a society and a community that thrives on being busy, always doing, never slowing down. Well, how about a change of pace? How about choosing to slow down? How about saying 'no' to a few things in your life and truly saying 'yes' to that one thing that God has called you to pour your heart into? If the juggling act of life has got you feeling as if you can't control what you are juggling anymore, there's a certain sign that you need to slow down. Do it for God, to truly be tuned in to what He has to say to you. Then, do it for yourself, your family, the people in your life who depend on you and are first priority in your life. I find my best time with God, to give Him my fullest attention, and to ultimately help me to release and rest is right before bed. As soon as the kids are in bed, and Ryan is into his late night tv show, I am headed to bed for my time with the Father. I am naturally a night owl and find my best time to give God is late in the evening. Early mornings have never been easy for me and will never be, so this is what works best for me. Everyone should find a time of the day that works best for them to truly focus and give God their best, and that looks different for each person. I have been considering in recent weeks when was the last time I found myself fully immersed, completely tuned in to God's presence? I have come to the realization this year, that I am struggling to trust God and my faith has been rocked harder than any other time in my life thus far. It is easy to trust when we can see it, touch it...but to trust in the unseen. That is a lifelong faith builder for every believer and the key I am finding is in how open our hearts are to fully trusting God. I know that my struggle with trusting God has so much to do with how I have ridden out the last two years of our life journey. It has left my heart severely bruised and broken, and I am finding that the healing process is taking longer than I'd expected. I suppose in a way, I can be compared to an onion. There are layers to my heart that I am slowly peeling back, letting it go as I am able to identify that part of my heart that has been hurt, and truly allowing God to heal it and restore me. I want to find joy again, I remember a time in my life when I could say I truly experienced joy and can say I lived it, but it seems a long time ago. There's a reason God has brought me this far, and I am finding out in this new year, as the layers are peeled back, that He intends for a great deal more healing, resting, restoring to take place in my life so that I can once again find joy and live it.

In case you are wondering, here is a real life update for Ryan and I. We are settling in to new jobs and our new home here in Springfield, Missouri. God has truly provided for this time, and it is evident by certain events that have taken place that we are certainly meant to be here. We are thankful to have good jobs, and a cozy apartment home. We are making slow and steady progress financially, rebuilding what was lost and uncertain for so long. We are beginning to look ahead to plans for a home purchase, but we are being patient, waiting on God's perfect timing. Part of that waiting, and after talking and praying, after meeting with a builder and the bank, we have decided it is best for us to continue to rent and move into a larger apartment this summer. We will revisit the bank in January 2014 to see what our options may be to purchase a home by the summer of that year. I cannot say enough how freeing it is and how right Dave Ramsey is, that choosing to live like nobody else so we can live like nobody else is right on! Living within your means or even below your means is very smart and can bring focus to your priorities very quickly. We have a new perspective on our lives, what we need versus what we want, and what we want to be free to do with our time by choosing to live practically rather than excessively. It is being thankful for what we have today, rather than being so consumed by what we have to have tomorrow. In this life, we are guaranteed to face some mountains, and it will be necessary to climb often until we are crawling on our knees to just keep moving. Well, here's some hope I found in my devotional last night and it has been on my mind today.

'Even if the fig tree does not blossom
and there are no grapes on the vines,
If the olive trees fail to give fruit
and the fields produce no food,
If the flocks die far from the fold
and there are no cattle in the stalls;
Then I will still rejoice in the Eternal!
I will rejoice in the God who saves me!
The Eternal Lord is my strength!
He has made my feet like the feet of a deer;
He allows me to walk on high places.' Habakkuk 3:17-19 (VOICE)

There are going to be times in our lives when it seems we make little or no progress, we have to learn to live with the bare minimum. But somehow we need to choose to have joy in the present-because God certainly will give us strength to walk that mountain! Join me in the journey, whatever your situation is, and let's find strength and joy in Him somehow. It will come, certainly it will come because we love Him and He loves us so.

A lesson in resting and trusting

I am finding in recent weeks, that my being-my heart, mind and soul-is in desperate and purposeful need of a lesson in rest and trust. Is it just me, or is it true for you that as life progresses we become more weary and skeptical? We could blame it on aging, but I'd rather choose to blame it on how each of us can manage the stress and demands that are placed upon us. After all, we can only take so much, and that is different for each person, before something's gotta give. We each have a story to to tell about how life has treated us thus far, and it is not healthy to dwell on the negative nor to glorify the postiives profusely. I stumbled on to some interesting and inspiring words today, from two sources and I was inspired, found myself kind of sighing and saying to myself, "Yeah. That's right on. I can identify with that." So, first up, a dear friend shared from Oswald Chambers' devotional today and I was stopped in my tracks by it. It identifies so well with my current state and how I need to adjust my perspective.

'Sometimes God puts us through the experience and discipline of darkness to teach us to hear and obey Him. Song birds are taught to sing in the dark, and God puts us into “the shadow of His hand” until we learn to hear Him (Isaiah 49:2). “Whatever I tell you in the dark. . .”— pay attention when God puts you into darkness, and keep your mouth closed while you are there. Are you in the dark right now in your circumstances, or in your life with God? If so, then remain quiet. If you open your mouth in the dark, you will speak while in the wrong mood— darkness is the time to listen.

When you are in the dark, listen, and God will give you a very precious message for someone else once you are back in the light.

After every time of darkness, we should experience a mixture of delight and humiliation. If there is only delight, I question whether we have really heard God at all. We should experience delight for having heard God speak, but mostly humiliation for having taken so long to hear Him! Then we will exclaim, “How slow I have been to listen and understand what God has been telling me!” And yet God has been saying it for days and even weeks. But once you hear Him, He gives you the gift of humiliation, which brings a softness of heart— a gift that will always cause you to listen to God now.'
(Oswald Chambers, The Discipline of Hearing, February 14, 2012,

Second, a really bountiful article on about the importance of taking a rest on purpose.

'...I have to admit that I simply need to rest. I need to listen to my body when it tries to call a halt, and above all I need to remember that I am not so important in the scheme of things that I can't give up control (or the illusion of control) long enough to take time out. It's hard for me not to feel guilty when my energy isn't up to the tasks at hand. But I've found it is surprisingly easy to alter my plans, to reschedule a meeting, even—and here I do battle with my most basic instincts—to put off until tomorrow something I could do today. Today I would do it badly. Tomorrow, God willing, I'll be more rested and alert, and I'll be able to do it right.

I now understand that the old monk's wisdom was grounded in that of the Psalms he'd recited every day for more than 60 years. The Psalms remind us that whether we are full of energy or drained of it, we are in God's presence. Several Psalms imply that it's when we are asleep, and not so full of ourselves and the noise of our lives, that we are best able to hear God speak to us. In Psalm 16 we read, "I will bless you, Lord. You give me counsel, and even at night direct my heart." When I can truly accept being drained of energy, I see it not as an opportunity, because that implies too much control on my part, but as an opening. It's as if a window has opened, or a door, inviting me to listen. It is liminal (literally, "threshold") time, the fertile ground between waking and sleeping, between doing and being. It is when I am half awake, before my list-making brain takes over and pretends it's in charge, that my best ideas come. But on my off days, when I am stripped of energy and feel too stupid even to think, all I can do is pray

The author, Kathleen Norris, finished the article by quoting a prayer from the Common Book of Prayer that I have latched on to and will be posting on my bathroom mirror. Amazing, fresh air truth that I needed today.

"This is another day, O Lord.... If I am to stand up, help me to stand bravely. If I am to sit still, help me to sit quietly. If I am to lie low, help me to do it patiently. And if I am to do nothing, let me do it gallantly."

Read more:

I am thankful for the inspiration of these two amazing sources today and I am inspired to settle more deeply into this time of rest and restoration in my life. I hope it does the same for you.

my Ebenezer...

“…Thus far the Lord has helped us.”-1 Samuel 7:12 There are moments in my life when I look back and can see how God in His perfect yet my...

It's the journey that counts...

Most imprecations focus on the “how” of the injury rather than its final goal, which is generally presumed. This is the core of its power. Death inevitably comes to all things. But it is how this final aim is achieved outside of life’s natural course that makes curses truly terrifying. Accordingly, it is the barrage of ailments in the first curse that really matters. They overpower life. The disembowelment malediction is more then just the death of the vassals’ offspring. It also seeks to extinguish the family name and the demise of the underlings’ immortality. For the vassals, however, the injury is a slow, pitiable demise. Death, therefore, is the definitive goal of all curses against living beings. It is only the means of how it is to be achieved that differs.— Cursed Are You!, page 201

The Good, The Bad and The Horny

Snow Day in March = No Time To Masturbate

Snow days means the kids are home from school which leaves me no time to play. I was in a meeting yesterday so no time to masturbate, last night husband didn't wake me when he came to bed, and kids home today, so no time to masturbate. I usually play 4 times a week and this week, haven't yet. Today, I had to get on the treadmill to get out some of my pent up energy. Being a firm believer in the benefits of orgasms, four days without one actually pisses me off.

The benefits or Orgasms according to Angel:
Orgasms release endorphins
Relieve stress
Is good for your heart and blood flow
It's good for your skin
Releases toxins
Releases DHEA which improves brain function and is good for your metabolism
Oestrogen is released in a woman helps to lower bad cholesterol

If these reasons aren't enough, how about the fact that cumming feels good!

So, while I didn't masturbate today, I did the treadmill, talked to friends, and read a romance novel, I am a book reviewer and while it isn't erotica, it's OK.

Curled up on the couch with the blanket and book and read while the kids played. Not a bad way to spend the day!

How was your day? Did you have snow?

Started The Process of Looking for Our Match!

So, the other day my husband and I were having the talk about his birthday wish. We talked and I put the plan in his hands.

I think it is sweet that in his eyes I am sooooo hot that I have men throwing themselves at my feet. This is rarely the case. My days are spent in a little town, waiting for my children to come home from school. Barely any men cross my path and the ones that do are missing teeth, have humongous beer bellies are both. Even if hot, testosterone filled males were to cross my path, I wouldn't even notice. Sad but true.  The only hot thing around here is my husband and a sweet could-get-me-arrested, young kid who does my lawn in the summer. He is total hotness but because he is soooo young my thoughts of him are pure. I would probably feed him milk and cookies in lieu of my breasts on a plate.

We now have a profile on one of those matching sites. It is fun to read his disclaimer about what we are looking for. He said there are so many rules that he doubts anyone will bite. Mostly we are looking for someone to provide a service. We are not looking to be their friend, hear their issues or deal with nonsense.

It is fun to read who has commented or who is "winking" at us.

So, only time will tell. It will take time to pull the weeds and find our bloom but we have been talking for 14 years what's a few months?

How Does One Make "the" Move?

So...on my last post I talked about my husband's birthday present request. As someone who has been out of the dating, flirting pool for a very long time, how does one make the move? Do you act coy? Do you act flirty? What the hell is flirty anyway?

The question is..
How the hell DOES Angel get her groove back?

What would turn you on?

How do I proceed?

A Wrinkle in Time - Madeleine L'Engle

I am of the impression that I'm one of the minority who either just didn't like this book, or who didn't understand the grandness of this book. I don't know which it is; take your pick.

Maybe I'm just a pretentious bitch who doesn't like classics because they're classics. Or maybe not all classics are really all that good despite awards and hype and popularity.

But let's clarify.

The book is well written with imagery and description at some points, while at other points it gets pretty vague and sketchy. And just like that, the narration opts to explain away why things are confusing with the fact that, it's not a concept you understand but some things are just known. "What is the fifth dimension?" It's not something that can be explained, it's something that you "just know." "How does one tesser? And what does that even mean?" Again, this is something that cannot be explained with words; you "just know" what it is and how it works. "Who or What is Mrs. Whatsit?" Again, stop trying to explain these things with words; some things "just have to be known."

And this is pretty hard to stomach, even as an adult who loves to read fantasy a lot. Just as well, the book involves the presence of two brilliant scientists, so you would have thought that the logic in the story itself would make a little more sense.

The world has potential, I'll give it that. And maybe within the next four books of the series, things will come together a lot more enticingly. But as far as the story progression goes, A Wrinkle in Time was pretty boring. And frustrating. There isn't even a means to explain away The Dark Thing or "IT", which is pretty much summed up as "darkness" or "evil", plain and simple.

As a children's book, I guess this works out pretty well. Maybe had I read it when I was younger I would have been in awe of it, though I'm certain that the characters might have frustrated me anyway.

The kids are flat and boring when they're not annoying me. The three... I'll call them: "The Mysterious Beings Who Introduce the Quest", are flighty and confusing. The parents barely made enough of an appearance to really seem important. I especially found it a little insulting to find that Mom is an excellent, "brilliant" scientist, but she still spends more of her time being domestic while "the man" gets to go on government missions and adventures.

To be honest, the book started out pretty good and I was into it for the first four or five chapters. Meg was a pretty ideal heroine for young girls-- she's a nerd who's good at math, spends time doing academic stuff with her parents, and she's not "that quiet, pretty girl" in school who's cynical about her own looks to the point that you want to slap some sense into her. No, in fact, she's a troublemaker because she's misunderstood for her lack of trying to conform to the way that public education requires of you. She wears glasses and braces and is described by the in-story background characters as "that unattractive girl". She was realistic with her own age-appropriate issues to deal with, and she was the type of girl you would root for to come out on top.

And there was no love triangle.

And then we start the adventure and she does this thing where she cries, yells, cries some more, shrieks, screams, talks in exclamation points 90% of the time... Basically, she goes from a pretty ideal heroine to a hysterical damsel (despite the fact that she was never really in distress for much of the time she was being hysterical). On top of that, I felt that she lacked a lot of sense as well.

I feel like I'm one of few people who read this book who just didn't like Meg despite her affinity for brainy math problems and her non-standard-ness as a female main character in a young adult/middle grade novel.

All in all, this book could have been good if parts weren't so vague and if explanations didn't get filed away under "it just is" and then concluded the book in that fashion.

Moral of the story (which might work in a fantasy world if you want to keep your kids shielded from real life): Evil just is and love conquers all.

Also, parents aren't infallible, which apparently gives a child the right to be rude and disrespectful because Daddy Dearest can't make everything right? I'm still trying to process that one, because from where I come from, the stuff that Meg was spouting to her father after they escaped the Great Almighty IT the first time would never even have the audacity to fly around my parents.

This book was read as part of my 2014 TBR Pile Challenge hosted by Roof Beam Reader.

Gradient Teal Eyes

Here's a teal-ish look that I wanted to share with you all that's really easy to do and is quite "wearable." That word doesn't mean much to me as I have no problem wearing ridiculous make up, but I know a lot of you are shy :)

-Too Faced Shadow Insurance as a base.
- Morgana Minerals "Lady of the Lake" all over the center of the lid (turquoise)
-Glamour Doll Eyes "Veteran" in the outer corner/crease (navy blue)
-Glamour Doll Eyes "Family Secret" in the corner and on the brow bone (sparkly white)

After you apply those colors just a get a fluffy brush and gently blend them together. I used a damp flat brush and a matte black eyeshadow for eyeliner. I like to do this because it's not as harsh looking as liquid eyeliner.

And that's it! Super easy to do. Let me know what you think!

FREE pattern – Rebecca

 It has been a very long time since my last blog posting.  Quilts, quilts, quilts...and lots of them have flown under my sewing machine needle.
Rebecca's label
Before the 2012 Fall Quilt Market in Houston, Texas I was asked by Windham Fabrics to design a quilt using their new fabric line "Rebecca".  Of course I was thrilled to be asked and got right to work.  Time is always short and designing/sewing process has to be quick.  I finished the quilt, naming it Rebecca - I know, the name isn't very original.  I wrapped it up and sent it off to Windham for photography.  The quilt appeared both in their catalog and Quilt Market booth.  Once Market was over I thought that was the end of the quilt and its appearance in the quilt world.  But, oh not so fast...last week Windham contacted me wanting a pattern for the Rebecca quilt, and by-the-way could it be done in less than a week.  Never say no is my motto.  With pencil and computer working at mach speed I made the deadline.  The pattern is now FREE to download from the Windham's website.  Anyone with a computer can access the pattern!  Check it out and the other wonderful free patterns Windham Fabrics offers.

New workshop just added! I'm teaching a 1-day plein air watercolor workshop at the Community Arts Center in Wallingford in September! This workshop is already starting to fill up, so sign up now if you want to get in before it's too late.

Students will learn how to break through the confusion of choosing a plein air painting subject, and learn how to plan a landscape composition by eliminating distractions and focusing on their subjects. They will learn how to capture light and shadow in their paintings, and how to see the landscape in simplified shapes of colors and values. They will learn how to mix colors with a limited palette, and depict a variety of perspective techniques to create depth and dimension in paintings. Students will learn how to sketch quick value studies, and add buildings, architectural elements, and gestural figures to the landscape to create drama and interest in their paintings. A variety of techniques will be demonstrated, and students will receive lots of hands on individual instruction and critique.
  • This workshop takes place outdoors, so please bring a folding chair.
  • Rain date will be September 19.

How To Transfer An Image To A Rock

One sunny day and you decided to go to the beach, get some fresh air, relax and listen to the waves that smashes to the coast. As you are enjoying the beautiful scenery of the beach, you happen to find a perfect clean rock that would be fitting for your room. Rocks can be nice decorations and is cheap, but what if we can transfer an image to that rock to add beauty to it? Cool idea right?

In this tutorial, you will learn how to transfer an image to a rock. To start with, we will be needing a few materials:

*Some rocks (Preferably the larger ones. You can also buy these at any supply store);

*An image you like;

*White Paint;

*A "Splendid Blender" Pen;

*A laser printer;

1. Let's start by cleaning the surface of the rock, that's where we will place the image.

2. Paint the rock white, let it dry under the sunlight.

3. With the laser toner, create a copy of the image you like to transfer and place it to the rock faced down (ink jets don't work).

4. Let's start rubbing the pen all over the image with one hand holding the paper so that the image will not slide or you'll get a blurry image to your rock. Press the image hard until it transfer to get a clear image.

5. Be sure to have a lot of ventilation when using the pen. And that would be all.

There are other ways to transfer an image to a rock. You can use any other methods but this for me is really easy and worked out fine. You can also make personalizations to your rock and it can also be great for presents. Really easy and yet so pretty, you'd just have to use your imagination. Enjoy!

Question DetailsAsked on 7/9/2013

can a 'slat' patio cover be converted to a solid cover?

Do you have the same question? Follow this Question

1 Answer

Generally not easily - the "slat" or pergola type is not designed to carry any weight other than the slats themselves and maybe a bit of planter or climbing vegetation load - whereas a solid roof means higher wind loading and probably snow loads as well as the weight of the solid cover, so it would have to be built a lot heavier. Also, most pergolas are built level, so it would have to be sloped to shed water.

If you are in an area without any snow, then a light cover of sheet aluminum or acrylic could probably be done with some sway and uplift reinforcement for wind loading, though if you are in a snow-free area you may be in hurricane country, so aluminum and acrylic roof survivability is poor in that environment unless you design it modular (which I have done on a few jobs) so it can be unbolted with just a few bolts and slid off in panels that can be stored in the garage.

Be sure you are not making a situation where you will trap roof runoff and debris against the house or roof edge, as it will cause rot. The best design is a clear 3"+ gap vertical between house roof and pergola roof, with full-coverage splash protection (metal or plastic fascia) on the fascia across the ends of the house rafters, and a 1"+ air gap between pergola and house fascia except for where metal sway bracing connects to the house.

I would talk to a pergola/awning/porch specialty contractor or general contractor about what your existing one can take, and how much it will cost for upgrading it and roofing it. Search the List (in green banner bar) for local contractors and reviews.

So the picture really does it no justice! It does not show one of the main features which is a row of buttons from the waist up! What caught my eye was the boxy collar and the tailored fit in the hip and legs. Very Jackie O! This was my first J Crew purchase but definitely not my last!

Afghanistan Advances

I am really happy with this progress being made in Afghanistan:

"NATO has committed to fund Afghanistan’s 350,000 security forces at $4.1 billion annually. At a NATO summit in Wales in September, alliance leaders committed to continue funding through 2017."

This is the exact best foreign aid you can possibly give. Fund local security forces (or send your own) to ensure an allied democracy stays (or gets) in power.

And look at what a great ally we have: "Ghani praised the alliance’s efforts".

And hopefully now the foreign forces will be entirely out of the Afghan's faces and just providing air support. Not that the Afghans ever complained about us being in their faces. According to opinion polls something like 85% of Afghans support the foreign presence. It is a really fantastic result. And to think that after 9/11 many people wanted to turn our 85% allies into a parking lot, instead of giving them the chance to kill the 15% by themselves. Also note that despite the quite high casualty rate of the Afghan security forces, there is no shortage of volunteers. How beautiful is that? Our brave allies signing up to fight our enemy. All we ever needed to do was give them a chance to help themselves, instead of demanding that they do the technically impossible task of overthrowing their own dictatorship without outside help.

Kurdish Protest

I am very glad that the Kurds in Kobane now have access to heavy weaponry from Iraqi Kurdistan. Hopefully now ISIS will be rolled back swiftly.

There was a protest at Sydney Town Hall today (2014-11-01) at 2pm which I decided to attend. I would say that over 50% of it was in English, so I could understand. I joined in saying slogans, but not the Kurdish slogans. The slogans were things like "save Kobane" and "down down ISIS" and "save the women", and "save the children" and "save the minorities". Unfortunately there was also a small amount of anti-Turkish sentiment. I didn't join in the slogans against Turkey. Also there was a speaker from the "Socialist Alliance", and flyers from "Green Left". As a right-wing pro-capitalist person I don't like being associated with such groups.

Someone was filming it and when they approached me I gave the "laban" sign. I was wearing my headband with "democracy" (in Chinese) on the front. I stayed for about 1 hour after the politics seemed to be over and there was (presumably Kurdish) dancing going on. I also found out the organizer's web page by approaching a woman who had used the megaphone.

I hope the Kurds can stop being enemies with the Turks. The Iraqi Kurds have shown that it is possible to have good relations with the Turks. Turkey is a long-standing NATO ally, and has done quite a lot that we have asked of it, even though they had grave reservations about it. E.g. they allowed western planes to use Turkish bases to patrol the no-fly zone in Iraqi Kurdistan. And they provided sanctuary for both Iraqi and Syrian Kurds fleeing their own countries. And they have allowed Iraqi Peshmerga to cross their territory to get to Kobane. And they now seem to be open to Iraqi Kurdistan declaring independence. I hope the Kurds can respect the fact that we have a long-standing alliance with Turkey and thus Turkey's interests are our interests too. I believe we can get a united Kurdistan after Turkey, Syria, Iraq and Iran all join the European Union and NATO. Getting people into NATO is a slow process, and if the Kurds are impatient, they will lose their western allies and likely be clobbered (with Turkey's western allies doing nothing) by Turkey. Also note that no-one has an inherent right to secede from a country based on race or religion. They do have a right to secede from a dictatorship, if they plan to replace the dictatorship with a rational, humanist, non-subjugating government instead. But Turkey is not a dictatorship. Also the PKK is dogmatic (follows the communist dogma), not rational, so would be WORSE than what Turkish Kurds have now.

The Sanctity Of Human Life

This Sunday we mourn together on Sanctity Of Human Life Sunday. We mourn the death of over 50 million unborn humans that has resulted from a supreme court decision legalizing abortion on January 22, 1973. Human life is precious because it is created by God. The unborn and old, the healthy and infirmed, the genius and savant, black, white, and every other color are precious in His sight. I could say much, but I believe Ronald Reagan said it best in 1984 when he proclaimed the first Sanctity Of Human Life day.

A Proclamation

The values and freedoms we cherish as Americans rest on our fundamental commitment to the sanctity of human life. The first of the ``unalienable rights'' affirmed by our Declaration of Independence is the right to life itself, a right the Declaration states has been endowed by our Creator on all human beings -- whether young or old, weak or strong, healthy or handicapped.

Since 1973, however, more than 15 million unborn children have died in legalized abortions -- a tragedy of stunning dimensions that stands in sad contrast to our belief that each life is sacred. These children, over tenfold the number of Americans lost in all our Nation's wars, will never laugh, never sing, never experience the joy of human love; nor will they strive to heal the sick, or feed the poor, or make peace among nations. Abortion has denied them the first and most basic of human rights, and we are infinitely poorer for their loss.

We are poorer not simply for lives not led and for contributions not made, but also for the erosion of our sense of the worth and dignity of every individual. To diminish the value of one category of human life is to diminish us all. Slavery, which treated Blacks as something less than human, to be bought and sold if convenient, cheapened human life and mocked our dedication to the freedom and equality of all men and women. Can we say that abortion -- which treats the unborn as something less than human, to be destroyed if convenient -- will be less corrosive to the values we hold dear?

We have been given the precious gift of human life, made more precious still by our births in or pilgrimages to a land of freedom. It is fitting, then, on the anniversary of the Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade that struck down State anti-abortion laws, that we reflect anew on these blessings, and on our corresponding responsibility to guard with care the lives and freedoms of even the weakest of our fellow human beings.

Now, Therefore, I, Ronald Reagan, President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim Sunday, January 22, 1984, as National Sanctity of Human Life Day. I call upon the citizens of this blessed land to gather on that day in homes and places of worship to give thanks for the gift of life, and to reaffirm our commitment to the dignity of every human being and the sanctity of each human life.

In Witness Whereof, I have hereunto set my hand this 13th day of January, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and eighty-four, and of the Independence of the United States of America the two hundred and eighth.

Ronald Reagan

He Never Told Us He Loved Us, But. . .

But how can they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how can they believe without hearing about Him? And how can they hear without a preacher?
Romans 10:14

     I've heard it more than once, "Well, he never told us he loved us, but you just know he did." He provided for them. He took care of them. He just never told his family he loved them. No one wants a false profession of love. No one wants a daddy who says he loves them and then does nothing to prove it. But, let's be honest, words are important. What we want and what we need are friends and family who love us with both words and action, not one or the other.
     Words are important and its important that we use them. God gave us words and tells us to use them to bless others. You can curse by not speaking as easily as you can curse by speaking. The spouse or child who never hears, "I love you. You are valuable to me.", is not blessed. Our failure to bless is the withholding of a blessing. It is a silent curse. Overcome your introversion, or aversion, and speak.
     There is no situation where this is more important than in fulfilling our mission in life as followers of Jesus Christ. Our mission is to make disciples. People do not become disciples by observing our pious lifestyles. They do not know God has loved them supremely through Jesus Christ by observing us. The hungry do not find eternal life by receiving a grocery bag of food from us. They cannot know who loves them, who has transformed us, and who is giving them food unless we tell them. They cannot know Jesus and eternal life unless we proclaim His name.

We Must Learn Who We Are In Christ

Therefore, brothers and sister, in view of the mercies of God, I urge you to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God; this is your true worship. Do not be conformed to this age but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may discern what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God. (Romans 12:1-2)

     My earliest memories aren't pleasant. I remember a lot of feelings of inadequacy, being outcast, ridiculed. I remember being called fatso, tubby, and lard-##s. I guess I was just a fat kid.
     Memories are funny things. The painful ones tend to stand out far more than the pleasant ones. Sometimes they stand out so loudly and for so long that we forget the pleasant memories. So, I'm not a big believer in my memories, but I do remember some painful things.
     Well, not long ago I was looking through some childhood pictures. As I thumbed through several pictures of myself, I was shocked. I wasn't skinny, but I definitely wasn't obese. All these years, I've felt fat. Today, sadly, I am, but I wondered how long I had believed what others had said about me and how that shaped my life.
     What we believe determines what we do. If we think we're basically good apart from God, we will never see that we are sinners in need of a Savior. Once forgiven, once we believe in Christ, we still believe much of what we did before God redeemed us. There's a process we have to go through if we're going to believe what God says about us and live that out.
     What would happen if every man believed what God said about him? What if he believed what God said about the value and worth of women? How would he treat women? Certainly not like many men treat women. He would never treat a woman as an object to be used or abused. What would happen if every woman believed what God said about her? How would she view her value and worth? Certainly it would not be in her external beauty. It would be in her internal worth. Wouldn't that encourage her to never allow a man, or woman, to devalue her personally, intellectually or sexually. And, when things were said against her, wouldn't that strengthen her to withstand them emotionally and even physically.
     What would happen if parents spent their parenting years teaching their children their identity in Christ? Wouldn't a child be less likely to bully another if she understood her worth and the worth of the other child in Christ? If your child understood his or her worth in the eyes of God, and believed that worth, wouldn't that insulate him or her against the abusive words of others?
     That's what I've been thinking about lately What if I had known who I was in Christ, and believed that, when I was a child? How would that have changed how I treated other kids? We used to sit around and see how insulting we could be to one another. It was a game we played, a hurtful game. If I had known and believed who I was in Christ, how would it have changed how I felt about the things that were said about me and done to me? How would it have changed the way I treated others?
     We must learn the truth about ourselves, and about God, and we must imbed it in our souls. It will transform more than our moral behavior. It will transform our identities. His truth will transform our lives. We must teach it to one another, especially to our children. They must learn more than just moral behavior, more than just "don't bully." They must also learn that the value of a person is greater than just being the pinnacle of evolution. They must learn that they are the pinnacle of God's Creation created in His image, a living soul because of His breath.

Michael Phelps Is Going to Race a Great White Shark During Shark Week

Phelps shouldn't stand a chance against the ocean's greatest predator, but we're sure Discovery has something up their sleeve.

What does the most decorated Olympian of all time do when he finally retires from his sport?

Race a shark, apparently. Discovery Channel recently announced that Michael Phelps, the 31-year-old former competitive swimmer with a record 23 Olympic gold medals, will square off against a great white shark as part of the channel's upcoming Shark Week programming.

"They are one of the fastest and most efficient predators on the planet: Sharks. He is our greatest champion to ever get in the water: Michael Phelps. Thirty-nine world records. Twenty-three Olympic golds. But he has one competition left to win. An event so monumental no one has ever attempted it before. The world's most decorated athlete takes on the ocean's most efficient predator," the channel writes in a press release for Phelps vs. Shark: Great Gold vs. Great White (airing July 23 at 8 p.m. ET).

I guess once you've smoked every competitive swimmer on the planet, the only thing left to do is square off against a titan of the animal kingdom. Does Phelps have a chance? If the shark is really going for it, probably not. According to the ReefQuest Centre for Shark Research, there's little doubt the shark's top speed will be faster than Phelps' top speed. "Current consensus among shark scientists is that the top swimming speed of the Great White is at least 25 miles per hour. My own rough, back-of-the-envelope-type calculations—using several methods—suggest that the White Shark may achieve burst speeds of 35 miles per hour or more," the author writes.

For comparison, a 2010 ESPN article reported Phelps' fastest swim at 6 miles per hour. Phelps will also be at a serious size disadvantage, as he's listed at 6-foot-4 and 194 pounds. Great white sharks, on the other hand, weigh between 1,500-2,400 pounds and can measure up to 21 feet long.

The facts make it look like Phelps is destined to get slaughtered during the race (metaphorically), but we're sure Discovery has something up their sleeve to keep things competitive.

Artist Takes Photos Of His Brother-In-Law In The Superman Outfit

We can all be superheroes if we want to be.

We all have our favorite outfit. Whether it's a super smart suit, a party dress or a good old white tee, whenever we wear it we feel like we can conquer the world.

For Michael, the brother-in-law of Boston-based photographer Rick Ashley, his favorite outfit is definitely his Superman costume.

Michael has Down syndrome. According to Ashley, both grown-ups and kids with Down syndrome were the frequent subjects of religious Renaissance paintings by artists like Andrea Montagna or Filippo Lippi. Now Ashley seeks to combat the modern day stigma against people with disabilities with Michael's help.

"I was referencing a number of historical paintings in the project, the subjects of those paintings alway wore their finest most elaborate clothing," Ashley told A+. "Michael's most regal outfit is his Superman outfit not to mention his most favorite."

Scroll down to see Ashley's work.

ApologetiX in England?
Sun., Feb. 3. 2008 4:42pm EST

We got a nice note from a fan named Laura in Birmingham England this past week:

I was just wondering if you're going to come over to England any time soon. I think you guys are a great band, and I love "Bethlehemian Rhapsody" and "JC's Mom."
Of course, we'd love to make it over to the United Kingdom. ApologetiX lead singer J. Jackson's great grandfather came from jolly old England, and his wife, Lisa, was a college student in the U.K. That was the University of Kentucky, however, and not the United Kingdom. :)

Nevertheless, we encourage all ApologetiX fans in the United Kingdom to pray us over there.
