]]> Why is it so hard... tag:vox.com,2008-07-17:asset-6a00cd970b70e44cd500fad69a95d60005 2008-07-17T20:39:38Z 2008-07-17T20:39:38Z ChristianSword http://beittefillah.vox.com/?_c=feed-atom-full

Why is it so hard to remember the URL of my own blog? Perhaps I/m at fault for not blogging more? Perhaps if it was easier to remember where the log in is, as well as where to send readers...?
Any rate, I'm trying out an online reputation site, where others can rate me - as to the integrity of my profiles, if they know me to be me, all of that sort of thing. It's at naymz.com, and until 17 AUG 08 I have a "personal" url (which I already can't remember) something like http://skip.ssherrill.names.com Maybe that's it? If not, try going to NAYMZ.COM and searching for Shoobo Arzeel, and Texas and Skip - maybe. What ever happened to "user friendly"?
  Oh, well, they may turn my electricity off next week, so t won't matter all that much, but if the threatened water company disconnect takes place, then it really won't matter, nu?
Blessed is He who provides in all His infinite wisdom.

In the beginning, God. In the middle, in between, and in the end, too. Not the "god" of the world, not the fashionable god, not the created creator that fits snugly in our minds. Surely not the comfortable god, nor the god that makes deals with us; not even the god that forgives us if we only say we're sorry we didn't get it right. Let's talk about the

One God, the El, Adonai of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob. The One that spoke to Moses. The One that visited Abraham.

He is the God of Salvation, the God of More Than Enough, the One so huge and unimaginable that we can't begin to comprehend Him. Why then should we talk about the one so unimaginable, so indescribable? Because He says to talk about Him, think about Him, talk to Him and consider Him every moment. It isn't so demanding when you realize that each of those moments exist only because He chose to create them. You and I are only concious of the moment because He created us with the ability to be aware of those moments. Who is the selfish and demanding one? Not God.
