Christian fantasy literature, and commentary on assorted subjects
This was literally all around us yesterday, but not here. We had a few sprinkles, but no real rain. Thank heaven for that. I think it would have been the last straw, the way I was feeling yesterday. Some of these places are a little far from us, but others are quite close.

A liberal once said to me that socialism is good and necessary because “the government will take better care of you.” So much for adulthood.
God gave us families, the Church, voluntary associations, friends, and our own two hands and our own brains to take care of us. We don’t want The Government to take care of us. We are not infants. If they feed you, clothe you, and put a roof over your head, they can certainly tell you what to do and what to think and punish you if you don’t.
Yeahbut, yeahbut! If it saves one life…. Honk if you’ve heard that one before.
If it saves one life, Walter Williams said recently, then the government should reduce the speed limit to 5 mph. That would save thousands of lives! Unless it drove people to murder or suicide.
Let’s all wear face masks all the time! if it saves one life. Let’s ban all products that could possibly harm you–if it saves one life. Let’s put the government in charge of making all the people happy! Which will only make them all miserable; but if it saves one life, we’ve gotta do it.
Yeahbut! The Democrats will give us free stuff! All kinds of free stuff!
Is this not shameful? Do you want to be a baby or a toddler all your life? Aren’t you ashamed for living off the work of other people? It’s theft if you do it with a Saturday night special. If the government does it with an army that’ll kill anyone who resists, it’s just “fair redistribution.”
Grow up, America.
Yes, today was atrocious and I don’t know why.
I am not sick, nor sore. I don’t have a fever. I had a good night’s sleep last night. I am eating properly. I don’t have headaches, nor indigestion.
I just felt crappy all day, everything I tried to do was almost impossible and I was generally down.
There’s a lot here that’s still not under control and that’s frustrating me.
I have absolutely zero ambition.
My neighbor, who lost her husband four years ago, did say to me that I shouldn’t expect things to be right. Not for a while. Her husband was killed in an accident on his electric bike. What a shock that was.
I think I’ll go and start my supper now.
Sorry for the rant.
Have a good night, all.
See you tomorrow.
God bless everybody.

The two great commandments, we were reminded every week in church, are to love God and to love your neighbor as yourself. God we cannot see, and our neighbor is a pain in the butt.
Only God knows how hard it is for us to keep those commandments. And don’t even try to count the times we fail.
So we pray–to God whom we cannot see, for the power to love persons whom we don’t really want to love. It’s easier, even, to ask God to love them and to bless them, than it is to ask for the grace that would enable us to do that.
It’s a good thing He understands us so well.
That’s why He sent us His Son to be our savior. He knew we couldn’t do it on our own. By works of the flesh no one shall be saved.
Jesus Christ, who did all those things that we are not able to do–He is our righteousness and our salvation.
And our sanctification, too (I Corinthians 1:30). So that, in time, we can at least do better.
