I survived. When I woke on Sunday morning I felt a thousand percent better. Which was good because I really wanted to go to church. It is really wonderful to actually be able to be excited about church again. I had wanted to take Elijah to cradle roll class for the first time, but because it was a holiday, there were no classes. But Eli was really good in church anyway, and the sermon really hit home for me. He talked about how the early church had everything in common and total dependence on Christ and because of that they were able to give to every person as they had need.
He pointed out a verse in Ezekial that I had never read before so I wrote it down because it really cut. But I left it in my Bible and that is in the car and Jeremy has the car, so I'll have to get it later.
Okay so this has been on my mind alot lately. And it applies to so many aspects of life. My mom always made this statement to me as a kid: What is popular is not always right, and what is right is not always popular.
It's really simple, but it's becoming very meaningful to me here right now.
Thoughts?

It was popular to kill natives in this country for a while, but that didn't make it right. So yes I would agree. I'm not saying that is 'ALWAYS' the case though.
no, i'm not either. i guess i was just thinking about some things that we as Christians condone that when you really look at it you'd find that it's totally wrong. I'm finding more and more things that fit into that category lately than I used to. So I guess I'm just saying,
Think about EVERYTHING that you do and condone. Check EVERYTHING. Don't just do it because some popular said pastor or some popular said convention says it's okay.
