Oh wow, my morning schedule had been completely thrown to the wind this morning and that reduces the amount of time and inspiration that I have this morning. And that stinks, because Friday’s usually provide the best posts!
Even listening to the bluegrass classic “Little White Church” didn’t seem to kick up any great metaphors or thoughts this morning.
So here is one little thought for today, one that I have been pondering. So many times we let the environment we are in shape our thinking. I wonder what would happen to that environment if he shape it with our thinking. So, I am trying to ignore the ugliness of the corporate culture, and am trying to apply the great learnings about life outside of this mess to it. Or put another way, I am trying to step above the junk and politics of the workplace and just relate to people as what they are – creations of our father in heaven.
Hm.. maybe that is an interesting thought for Friday.
8 If you really keep the royal law found in Scripture, “Love your neighbor as yourself,”[a] you are doing right. James 2:8
9 With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse human beings, who have been made in God’s likeness. 10 Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers and sisters, this should not be. 11 Can both fresh water and salt water flow from the same spring? 12 My brothers and sisters, can a fig tree bear olives, or a grapevine bear figs? Neither can a salt spring produce fresh water. James 3:9-12
Comments Please
September 9th, 2011Well, I discovered yesterday that my comment sub system on this blog may not have worked. I was wondering why no one ever posted anything. I assumed it was either because no one really reads any of this, or you stop reading before you get to my question at the end. Either way, it’s working now! So prove my assumptions incorrect and comment away.
Oh, I also have received a suggestion to put a comment button in the email distribution that many of your receive ( you can subscribe yourself on the right hand side of the site ( www.butcherville.com/dailybuffet). I did not do that yet, but I am looking for a way to add that to the email. Maybe that will help with some more active comments.
Can you see I am dying for attention today!!
Seriously, I do receive a lot of feedback from you, the reader via email, and I always appreciate the comments and the encouragement. It “keeps me singing as I go“.
Well, on today’s thought, which by the way this is going appears quite elusive. It is Friday once again, and of course Friday usually means a simple thought, plus my friend Mr Jones has me schedule for an 8am meeting which will keep me busy for most of the morning.
So, back to the idea of comments and providing feedback. Wouldn’t it be great if the creator of the world would stop by the blog you call your life and leave a comment every so often. Something that would confirm and correct. Something that would help you keep going in the right direction.
Well, I think he may have. Well I know he has provided so much all ready. But I think he has provided a feedback mechanism. Look at these verses from James
He tells us to listen and look with intent and the answers are there. Hm.. the feedback is right in front of us, is it up to us to make sure our comment section is working?
I dunno? What do you think about this?
