Life Intersections

The People Puzzle

At different points
in our life...
we intersect
with other people.

Why?
For what reason?
Yet...
Every reason has a purpose...

One day a stranger
becomes a friend...
And friends become family...
For better or worse.

A pastor,
A criminal,
Parents,
Children.

Different people
weaving in and out
of the puzzle
we call our life.

One person's sacrifice
results in another's salvation.
Why give up your life
for another?

Unless you believe
in something greater
than yourself?
Do you believe?

@JoSH Poetic Popcorn Poetry

Do you like to people watch?  What do you say to the stranger you see on the bus?  Or the stranger you see at the mall?  The people you work with?  The people you live with?  Life is not a coincidence and we meet the people we meet and live the life we live.  But is there an underlying purpose?

James

2:14-26

"What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him?"

Faith without works...  Exactly what does that mean?  Can you have faith and not do good works?  What about the people that do good works but have no faith?  If someone offered you a free gift, would you take it or would you be untrusting?

Hidden Christmas

What does Christmas mean to you?  Do you know why we celebrate this day?  There is a reason for BC and AD:  Before Christ and After Death...  How did a mere man change history?  Was he really only a man?  Or was he something more?

Christmas in the Manger

Who is this child born in Bethlehem?  Why do we have so many songs about this event?  Why is it so important?  Why is he so important?  Have you ever heard about this story?  Have you ever read about this story?  Can you afford not to know him?  It is a risk you will have to take to not know him.

When Holidays Hurt

Not all holidays are fun and games for everyone.  Sometimes holidays hurt the most especially if you have lost a loved one during this time or earlier in the year.  If so, then you need to figure out a different game plan to help you cope.  Hopefully there will come a time when the holidays won't hurt so much.

Happy Happy Holidaze!

Enjoy!

Christmas...

Is coming!

The Last Religion

Are we in the last days?  Technology and the information highway are booming.  People are more online than they are offline sometimes.  Exactly where are we headed and do we care?  Life is becoming virtual reality...

Faith Like Potatoes

"Ya Gotta Have Faith..."  Just because you believe in God doesn't mean you always get your way.  Remember there are different answers to prayer:  No, Slow, Grow, and No!  However if you do believe then you get to see what happens on the other side.
