You See the World Through Blue Colored Glasses
You live your life with tranquility. You have faith that things will work themselves out with time.
You judge all your interactions through the lens of hope. You try to get all the facts before forming your opinion.

You face challenges with wisdom. You know that all bad things pass, and you have the confidence to see problems through.
You see love as the utmost expression of trust. Your relationships tend to be peaceful and stable.

At your worst, you can be cool, melancholy, and detached. You sometimes have to step back from emotionally charged situations.
You are at your happiest when you are able to reflect and relax.

YOU SEE THE WORLD THROUGH RED, WHITE AND BLUE GLASSES!



YOU’RE A REAL LIVE NEPHEW OF YOUR UNCLE SAM!



You recognize that Freedom is not free but that it is gained and protected through the service and sacrifice of everyday men and women who, when confronted with Tyranny and Injustice, answer Duty’s and the Nation's call.



Your life is dedicated to the service of our Great and Beloved Nation – you will tolerate no trammels on the exercise of our inalienable rights to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.









Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Bumper Cars

March 5, 2013

Life is a lot like “bumper cars” at an amusement park. You get in your car, knowing that you will get hit . . . you just don’t know how hard. And when you get hit, you step on the gas pedal, chase the one who has hit you, and hope to bump that person harder than they have bumped you.

That may be a fun strategy for bumper cars, but it’s a terrible strategy for life. When you get bumped in life, bumping back only escalates matters and in the end everyone suffers damage.

Jesus had a better strategy: Forgive those who have “bumped” us. Like Peter, we may wonder how many times we have to forgive. When Peter asked Jesus, “Up to seven times?” Jesus answered “Up to seventy times seven” (Matt. 18:21-22). In other words, there are no limits to grace. We should always extend a spirit of forgiveness. Why? In the story of the forgiving master, Jesus explained that we forgive not because our offenders deserve it but because we’ve been forgiven. He says, “I forgave you . . . because you begged me. Should you not also have had compassion on your fellow servant, just as I had pity on you?” (vv.32-33).

Since we are among those who’ve been forgiven much, let’s stop the damage and share that blessing with others.

Lord, remind us of how deeply we have offended You
and how often You have extended the grace of
forgiveness to us. Teach us to forgive others and to trust
You to deal with those who sin against us.
Forgiveness is God’s grace in action through us.

Read: Matthew 18:23-35

Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times? —Matthew 18:21
Bible in a Year:
Deuteronomy 1-2; Mark 10:1-31

No traffic issues today - got ten hours in. The commute home was a fast run - barely over thirty minutes for a twenty-two mile drive. A productive day at work.

Tomorrow will be different, I am sure! We're supposed to get smacked by Winter Storm Saturn beginning after midnight tonight. Naturally, the denizens of the city and its environs are in a tizzy. All it takes is a few flurries to cause panic in this benighted burg! They've been known to close schools before the first flake falls.

You See the World Through Yellow Colored Glasses
You live your life with optimism. You remain happy through the bad times, and your outlook remains bright.
You judge all interactions through the lens of hope. You try to see the best in people, and you give them the benefit of the doubt.

You face challenges with a spirit of adventure. Things are what they are, so you might as well make the best of them.
You see love as the utmost expression of personal joy. You tend to be attracted to lively, friendly people.

At your worst, you are a bit petty and jealous. You want to be everyone's shining star.
You are happiest when you're daydreaming or thinking up fresh ideas.
