My life has been to seek the Absolute Truth of God; to help others find the real purpose of their lives... Attempt to make this or where ever I am; better for my having been there! Amen!
betta reddast (pronounced thet-ta red-ust) It means ‘it’ll
all work out in the end’ –
2 Thessalonians 3:5,
“May the Lord direct your hearts into the love of
God and into the steadfastness of Christ.”
What a great, Holy Spirit inspired prayer Paul prayed for us! It’s the surest way to know love
and
be equipped to love others.
============ I Killed My Teenager’s Fancy College Dreams. You Should, Too.
Forty-five million Americans owe a collective $1.6 trillion in student debt. Here’s why my daughter won’t be one of them.
A couple months ago, my 17-year-old daughter’s guidance
counselor called her into his office to ask pretty much the only
question that adults ask high school seniors: “What colleges are you
applying to?” When Ella tossed off a handful of universities, he said,
“Have you thought about going to art school?”
By that afternoon, Ella was having a full-blown crisis of faith, because yes, she had thought pretty hard about art school. When her oil paintings started winning awards freshman year, her AP art teacher more or less told her that art school was her destiny, the only way not to squander her prodigious talents. Ella didn’t need convincing.
She was so ready to bolt out of our small southwest Virginia town into a
big city where she could paint all day that she had basically become a
Lifetime movie cliché.
