January 11, 2017 Wednesday #Salsa!#newyou#VHStapes#isms

Get Fit
Dancing with Rita Moreno this morning.  If you get bored change partners.  Rita does a little salsa.

Get Faith
2 Corinthians 5:17  "When someone becomes a Christian (they) become a brand new person inside.  (They) are not the same any more.  A new life has begun!"  Are you afraid of losing parts of yourself that you want to keep, by being a Christian?   Do you think that you won't have fun in your life anymore?  Do you think your friends will not want to associate with you anymore?  You may decide that some of your lifestyle is worth giving up to be a Christian, but note the part that says "become a brand new person inside", The hope, peace and joy you get from being a Christian are the brand new you.

On this day
2004  After we went to church and came home and had lunch Nicole packed up and went back to Albion.  She was in her first year and came home quite often.  It was only 1 1/2 to 2 hours ride in that still going little Tempo Grandma gave her.  After she left it was always quiet, Mom and I missed her.  I did take a home video that I had copied (I have a lot) over to Adele, the girls mom to share the kids on film with her.  If you have a couple days I could do a marathon, except, those VHS films aren't doing so well anymore.  I have had a number of them fixed back to the reel but it doesn't last.

1805 - The Michigan Territory was created. The Mitten!  Not hard to see most of our boundaries.

Was Medani Sudan

Islam[edit]

Main article: Islam in Sudan
Most Sudanese Muslims are adherents of the Sunni branch of Islam. A vast majority of the Sundanese Sunnis follow the Maliki rites, although Shafi and Hanafi rites are also present.
Shiaism and its related Mahdist ideology have recently grown in popularity in Sudan. A growing number of Shias, for example, have emerged in Khartoum and surrounding villages.[3]
Sufism and Shia Islam support Prophet Muhammad's bloodline, Ahl al-Bayt. Some Shias prefer to practice their faith under the umbrella of Sufism for the sake of safety as Sufism tends to be less socially and politically controversial in Sudan than Shia Islam.[citation needed] However, Salafists and Jihadists have carried out bloody attacks on those belonging to Sufi, Shia, and other sects that they claim to be heretical.[citation needed]
Sunni Islam in Sudan is not marked by a uniform body of belief and practice, however. Some Muslims opposed aspects of Sunni orthodoxy, and rites having a non-Islamic origin were widespread, being accepted as if they were integral to Islam, or sometimes being recognized as separate. A great majority of Muslims in Sudan adhere to Sufism or are heavily influenced by it, making Sudan one of the most tolerant Muslim majority countries in the world.[4]  Knowledge is power.

Enjoy the day!  Make it memorable!
