Worth Fighting For?

A few days ago we had a "discussion" about discussions on my FB.  Nothing over the top but I had some thoughts....

Naked and Unafraid

 I am reading through the book of Acts in the New Living Translation.  This book used to seem boring to me!  That's crazy talk.  Chapter 12 was on the docket today and I almost find it hilarious.  Usually it is the end of this chapter that draws me in when Peter comes to the door and Mary doesn't believe it is Peter.. but let's back up.... At the beginning of 12, James, the brother of John is killed and apparently Peter is going to be next so the nasty King Agrippa puts him in jail.  The church is praying for Peter to be released.  When  reading verses 6 to 11 I thought to myself, "I don't want to sleep like a baby.  I want to sleep like Peter!!"  Or maybe rather it is the peace of Peter that is something to be sought after.  Here are my thoughts. 1) He was asleep... between two guards.  (And naked or close to it..

It could be like one of those "the day you were born" newspapers.   My first birthday greeting was around 4 am when chatting with someone online.. these chats have become fairly frequent and I really enjoy having an insomnia buddy-- although I do hope we can both get some better ZZZs shortly! I found out I am five years older than the Egg McMuffin . Since I make a mom-McMuffin for Andrew Every. Single. Day.  I think I am getting close to the McDonalds 10 billion sold...  Ann Voskamp has a joy dare where you list three things each day led by her prompts.  One of them is " 3 gifts hard eucharisteos. "  Today has been one of those.   Sometimes I marvel at how I can feel joy in the middle of extreme difficulty.  Honestly.. seriously.... I have my moments,  but joy in th...
