My Nutshell Life
Last Read: |
Here I am, again, wondering what I should really be doing, instead of sitting here writing about life, trying to make sense of everything. I really liked what Firecracker said about nutshells...holding only a nut, yet that nut can become a great tree...and that tree can make a big difference and fulfill a great purpose and provide food and shelter for animals or be carved out as furniture or wood for houses....and we all know that wood is used for so many things...all from a simple, little nut. Okay, she didn't say all of that, but I know what she meant. We should never take nuts for granted...or nutty people...or even just people who feel like they don't have any real, important purpose because they don't know what they're good at, or would be good at, if they were taught. Did I just go totally off-base again? Maybe. I'll just go back to recording, now. Last night was Christopher's parent-teacher conference. He did get five As...which I thought was wonderful....but, the other two classes.... Let's just say, they weren't A's. I think I would have been happy if they were even C's...or even if I knew that he had put forth some effort in either one of those classes. But, no one is perfect and I got a few bad grades in my lifetime, too. There really isn't anything you can do about the past except learn from it, so I told him he needs to bring those two grades up by semester. I did talk to those two teachers, though, because I thought the grades must have been a mistake. The first teacher was really helpful. She pulled out his folder and showed me everything he didn't complete and what he was supposed to do. She's even giving him the chance to complete a major project over the weekend, which should be fairly easy for him if he will get to it. I hope he does. Maybe I'll think of some kind of reward. I'm not sure how fair that would be, though, since Zach always does his homework on time. His reading teacher was really nice, too. I knew that because I had talked to him before about Christopher's grade. He was assigning the same books for the kids to read that I read when I was in junior high. Those were good books. I had a really nice talk with his reading teacher. He said that he would remind Chris to stay after school to complete assignments if he ever misses school again. I think that's probably the only way he'll get them done because he gets too distracted at home. He even offered to call me when he was going to have Chris stay after school to let me know where he was. I'm really grateful for that. |

Just to keep it simple and not to just say so much. Jesus asked Peter "who do men say that I am?" Read Matthew 16:16. Peter never said JESUS IS GOD. Read it that passage so you won't doubt who Jesus is. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Trinitarians killed thousands of people but if you realize it or not milions or killed because they didn't believe in the Pope's opinion of anything in the bible. ------------------------------------------------------------------ But this is what Peter said for all the world to know. He never had to say Jesus was God, and what he said was 'good enough' and the exact identification of who Christ was. In other words Peter's answer is what a truly saved individual believes and not the lie that Jesus is God literally. Peter said. "you are the Son of the living God'. If you can accept Peter's true answer to who Christ was then you probably aren't saved. But i can't jugde.

Jesus is the Son of God. That is different than saying he is God. You forgot the word SON. And you shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free because Jesus came that you may be a son as well.

Make sure your sons don't make the wrong friends. You have to make sure of that esp when kids are young because other kids like to harm other kids when the teacher is not around. Don't trust this Obama school system either.
