Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship

Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship

This blog will be written from an orthodox Christian point of view. There may be some topic that is out of bounds, but at present I don't know what it will be. Politics is a part of life. Theology and philosophy are disciplines that we all participate in even if we don't think so. The Bible has a lot to say about economics. How about self defense? Is war ethical? Think of all the things that someone tells you we should not touch and let's give it a try. Everything that is a part of life should be an expression of worship.

Keep it courteous and be kind to those less blessed than you, but by all means don't worry about agreeing. We learn more when we get backed into a corner.

Opus 2013-227: Ode to Old: Senior Moments

I almost burned my son’s house down Yesterday.  I put some eggs on to boil, got a phone call and left the house.  The eggs were cremated, the pan ruined and the house smells like a forest fire.  He got home in time.

I am not supposed to have moments like this for a few more years.  Does this mean that they are going to lock me up in some senior center?  Will the government use it as an excuse to put me away?  Will I need to wear an ID bracelet and be put on a halter when they take me out?  This type of thing was what made my wife decide that her grandmother could no longer live alone.

Now we try to get rid of the smoke smell.  I should be grateful that it wasn’t worse. 

Onward into senility.

  1. So, when you do something potentially dangerous, take your pants off and leave them bu the front door. If you go to leave, it SHOULD remind you that something needs checked first. If you leave without your pants, you'll soon learn that you don't have your car keys, since they were in your pants pocket, so you'll get another chance for your memory to be jogged. Who knows, the cops might even give you a ride home. Glad I could help.

  2. I want you to know how much I value your opinion. I would have a hard time explaining this kind of behavior to my wife. It might get me locked up even faster.

    Thanks for the help.

    Grace and peace.

Comments are welcome. Feel free to agree or disagree but keep it clean, courteous and short. I heard some shorthand on a podcast: TLDR, Too long, didn't read.
