-I start summer classes next week. The break was nice.
-I love the children's authors Eric Carl and Sandra Boynton.
-Ty is about to crawl..any day now. And he has four teeth now. He is getting so big..doesn't even want me to feed him anymore...He wants to do it himself.
-I love to do things in the yard. I have been weeding like crazy and planting all kinds of stuff. We have a garden too. It's fun to watch it grow.
-Just spent a lot of time with Jess' parents. They are back in the country..it's good to have them around.
-Jess' grandma...Ty's great-grandma is coming to visit us next week. It will be fun to meet her.
-I love to cook. Just made a lemon cheese braid. Making bread from scratch is not hard..at least this recipe isn't too bad. And it is sooooooooooo good.
-I am growing tired of bloging. I don't know how much longer I will keep it up.
-I am getting a new computer next week. A mac, of course....what else would I get???

It seems a bit odd to me that you never see any homeless people, drunks, prostitutes, gay people and the such in church. Are those not the people we want in our church? Are they not the people who need to hear of God's love and how Jesus died for them? Didn't Jesus say that he came for the sick and not the well? Yet all you see in our churches are the "christians". I don't like that. Yet non of the people i mentioned above would even want to come to our church. We as christians have made these people feel so bad and low about theirselves...we have judged these people...looked down upon them...they don't want to have anything to do with our God. (most at least). And that's sad. And I don't think God would be happy with that or with us for that. I think that telling people they are sinners and going to hell is not the most effective way of doing things. That's why I don't care for open air ministry..that's why I question people who think as soon as you see someone you should be telling them about how they are sinners and going to hell unless they are saved and leave their old way of life. How does that help? I don't think it does. I think if you want to tell someone of Christ right away without knowing that person, you should tell them of how God loves them and how He wants to have a relationship with them. Not that they are going to hell without His help. Anyway, that's just another reason why I don't care too much for church these days.
