Firefox
This site looks better in firefox...
Seems like Internet Explorer is seeing my script for my sifr as an error. I do appologize for the inconvinience. In the meantime try a browser that works.

haunting scripture
Can scripture haunt a person? And if it does... is it a good thing.
Recently I have been haunted by the verse. "let your yes be yes, and your no be no". Particularly the portion that says let your no be no.
So often we as Christians think that we are doers of EVERYTHING. We can't do everything. Really we can't. But we feel obligated when someone asks us to do something. We will put off family. We will put off almost anything to do something for someone in the church. This in moderation isn't a bad thing. But in excess you become like me. See... I can't say no. I just like saying yes. I like helping people. But what if it were God's will for me to say no. I know.. this is something rough to think about. But really. What if I say no? What then happens?
Bottom line is this. Say no. Be truthful. Do what you can. When you do this it helps everyone out. The people you say no to will find someone who can say yes and that someone can complete the task in a shorter amount of time than you cause they will be doing less things. So.. Let your No be No.
