Hey Sonny! good to see you hear! LOL good for musicians.. I’ve lost a little top end
I was married for 40 years, my brides name was Vicky. It was a minor annoyance to her when people spelled her name ‘Vicki’. My siblings and their spouses, for whatever reason, in holiday cards or family announcements or other correspondence always spelled it ‘Vicki’..
She made mention of it a few times but early on just gave up on it. Vicky graduated to home 5 years ago and when my family mention her it’s still ‘Vicki’.
Made me laugh when you mentioned “be sure and spell Bryan with a ‘y’..
(Oh.. and Happy Birthday Cassie)
funny how annoyances turn into smiles in the end! Precious lives’ of annoyances thanks for sharing ya Krank!
Dear LF, yer nailin’ it again!
I like the way Paul describes as ‘simply birth pangs’ what agnostic know-it-all’s attribute to “Mother Nature” as ‘natural disasters’ or ‘consequences of creature-caused climate change’, and insurance companies consider to be “Acts of God” so they can wriggle out of their contractual commitments.
The Message paraphrases it simply in Romans 8:18-25.
“18-21 That’s why I don’t think there’s any comparison between the present hard times and the coming good times. The created world itself can hardly wait for what’s coming next. Everything in creation is being more or less held back. God reins it in until both creation and all the creatures are ready and can be released at the same moment into the glorious times ahead. Meanwhile, the joyful anticipation deepens.
22-25 All around us we observe a pregnant creation. The difficult times of pain throughout the world are simply birth pangs. But it’s not only around us; it’s within us. The Spirit of God is arousing us within. We’re also feeling the birth pangs. These sterile and barren bodies of ours are yearning for full deliverance. That is why waiting does not diminish us, any more than waiting diminishes a pregnant mother. We are enlarged in the waiting. We, of course, don’t see what is enlarging us. But the longer we wait, the larger we become, and the more joyful our expectancy.”
Yer wife can probably tell you a thing or two about birth pangs and I’ll bet you’ll never put it to music or even a prayer that you’re never gonna hear in church.
But you’ll remember the good times you shared and the grandchildren that bless your heart and give you something to sing about.
Now, I’m just a lonely man in the middle of something he really doesn’t understand. But I think that the worldly wise find it is an inconvenient truth to comprehend how, in God’s economy, pain produces praises eh?!
Thanks for this un.. pain produces.. prolly why God allows
