A woman sits in front of her dirty desktop screen, considering the events of the day.
This is crazy....let me go get something to wash off the screen.
That's better.
Now, on with the blog!
I took Zach to church this morning and it was a really good service. After that, Zach asked me if it was a good thing to tattle on people, sometimes. I wanted to hear if Chris had done anything he wasn't supposed to do, so I told him it could be good to tattle.
Fortunately, he wasn't talking about Chris.
He told me that while the boys were still awake last night that Dorian, the boy who spent the night with the boys, was looking up porn sites on our computer.
This really surprised me, because I didn't think he was like that, but I was glad Zach told me. I asked him what Chris did when Dorian started looking up porn and Zach told me that Chris made him stop. (Whew!) He then told me that they started looking at short clips of animals mating online.
(Ew) I told him that porn really turns what God made to be a good thing into something evil. I told him that sex was meant to be shared between two people who are married to each other and love each other. I told him that when people go around sleeping with several people, that they get diseases, or sometimes have unplanned pregnancies, and some have abortions.
I was so relieved that Chris made Dorian stop, but it sure gave me a different perception of Dorian. I told Chris that I didn't want him to spend the night anymore.
After our interesting conversation, we got a cheap lunch and a couple I knew from a church I used to go to sat across from us. I actually heard them praying before I noticed who they were, and signaled for Zach to wait to talk to me until they were finished.
They told me that Judgment House....the play their church puts on every October...drew in 1500 people! They said that some who came confessed they were athiests....but....God moves in mysterious ways. This is the type of play that people don't soon forget. My daughter used to be involved in it every year.
We went to visit Aunt Betty in the nursing home after that. She seemed really happy that we were there. She gave me a good book I want to read this week by David Jeremiah. Next time we go, I want to lend her "The Shack." I think she'll like that book.
