Changing One Heart for Many – Week 25

Just joining us? Go here to catch up and join the movement!Socialized Health Care is coming back to the forefront of the news, as President Obama and Senator Ted Kennedy are pushing to get their plan signed before August. According to Grassfire.org, "This Obama-Kennedy healthcare plan imposes $1.5 trillion in new taxes and forces Americans to “hand over” their health care decisions to politicians and bureaucrats. This nationalization of our health care system will cripple businesses and cause a massive increase in government control over our lives." What might this mean on the pro-life front?Interestingly enough, Time Magazine put out an article entitled, "Could Abortion Coverage Sink...

Cross-Pollination

There it was, busy as a, well...BEE. Working with single-minded focus on gathering pollen for transfer. Cross-pollination in 4-D, right before my very eyes.I watched this science-lesson-in-action out on some land the other evening, as I waited for Hubs to walk off the property. I had my camera with me (of course) and busied myself with capturing creation for later perusal. It was during this later time that it struck me: Aren't we all cross-pollinators?Don't we all gather "pollen" from our experiences in life, other people's words and actions toward us, even what we take in through the rest of our senses? And, certainly, what we gather, we spread; taking the residue, good and bad, and...

Just Knock

It was a very inviting doorway. I noticed it right after I arrived at the apartment; an entry sporting a lovely summer wreath, a pewter dove above the door and a wrought iron cross stuck in a pot of geraniums. I wondered who lived there, as I never saw anyone go in or out.This week I was heading out to run some errands and, like every other day, I passed that doorway on the way to my car. But this particular day, I felt that familiar impression on my heart and heard the words "Go knock.""What Lord?""Go knock. I promise, you'll be blessed."I had been having a hard week, so, though my heart beat sped up with a little trepidation as I approached the door, my need for a blessing won out.I...
