1 Timothy chapter 6 - Great message for this time of year. The Love of money. We want so much, especially at this time of year. It points out that money is not the source of all evil but the love of money. It is ok to have things, but not to forget that God is the best provider for what you Really need.
On this day;
1979 - I went to the show with my friend Doc, to see "10". Remember that with Dudley Moore and the beautiful girl running on the beach that he became enamored with? AND my favorite music "Bolero". Now imagine yourself, with a bikini on and beads in your hair running along a tropical beach in the sun. Now isn't that nice?
1816 - The first savings bank in the U.S., the Philadelphia Savings Fund Society, opened for business. For those of us that have any to keep our beloved money safe.
Parenting - Nicole and I can spend a lot of time at Barnes and Noble. I wanted to find an inspirational book to include in my Christmas gift to a 15 year old boy, that I assume is black, because of the church location that we give to. So I had two books and had to make a decision, so I went to three black youth in the store and they wholeheartedly agreed on the one book, so I went with that. Nicole is always a little suspicious of what I am saying to people, must have some history on that.
Gawlior India - Lets get some background.
