Fake It Until You Make It: $425.26 -or- 4:25-26
http://revivingflood.blogspot.com/2014/08/42526-or-425-26.html
Fake It Until You Make It. Sunday, August 24, 2014. Until tonight. I just paid off our monthly balance. The balances of our savings account and "gift fund" matched my records. We have only two purchases on the credit card since the billing cycle started over. So, I decided to do the easy math of subtracting the roughly $35 of credit card purchases from the checking account balance. Compared to the spreadsheet, we have an extra $425.26 in our bank account. Then my mind went a couple of places:. I'm doubtf...

Fake It Until You Make It: November 2011
http://revivingflood.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Fake It Until You Make It. Saturday, November 26, 2011. It's trite but until I can process anything "life-related" on a deeper level, I just need to write today. Period. The book of Acts says that "in Him (Jesus) we live and move and have our being.for we are indeed His offspring". This is what comes to mind when I think about what I'm most thankful for: the Gospel (literally, good news). I belong to God! Truthfully, what I've struggled with most the last few months is resenting this period of engagement...

Fake It Until You Make It: March 2014
http://revivingflood.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Fake It Until You Make It. Saturday, March 1, 2014. A few truths I'm reminded of as result of this experience:. 1) God knows us, knows what it's like to be. Us, and truly cares for us. He's the only one who knows what we truly need when we need it and more often than not will provide for us when we least expect. I won't try to argue that every seemingly-random occurrence equals divine intervention but I am fully convinced that there is no coincidence that takes place outside of His grasp. The World As Be...

Fake It Until You Make It: October 2010
http://revivingflood.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Fake It Until You Make It. Sunday, October 24, 2010. That's when it hit me. The colors of the leaves jumped out at me, screaming, while the cool breeze was scattering them decoratively about the ground. I couldn't help today but stand in awe of our Creator God: less over what He has created; more over what He was creating in that very moment. And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ." - Philippians 1:6. Friday, October 15, 2010.

Fake It Until You Make It. Sunday, March 6, 2011. The March of Hope. Then it hit me: Yesterday was February. Today is March. All this comes from the God who settled the relationship between us and him, and then called us to settle our relationships with each other. God put the world square with himself through the Messiah, giving the world a fresh start by offering forgiveness of sins. (2 Corinthians 5:14-19; the Message version). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Fake It Until You Make It. Thursday, November 18, 2010. Greatsgiving: That's Great, But Who Are You Thanking? Recently at the "office" we were asked to take three cutouts of leaves, and on them, write one thing on each of them that we we're thankful for and then place that on a larger cutout of a tree, so that on each row of "cubes" there would be a Thanksgiving tree. Adj 1) conscious of benefit received. Do you think these things just "were"? Better yet, did you set the universe in motion? On a personal...

Fake It Until You Make It: Chick-fil-a, Homosexuality, and Christianity: An Epidemic and an Apology

Fake It Until You Make It. Friday, August 3, 2012. Chick-fil-a, Homosexuality, and Christianity: An Epidemic and an Apology. Note: Though this isn't a popular or well-written. Blog that is ever likely to receive a lot of feedback, please be advised that anything other than a peaceful, civil discussion is not welcome here. Any comments that I find to be unkind, hateful, derogatory, flammatory, etc. will be deleted. My point-of-view is this: we seem to have a misunderstanding of sin. Thank you so much for ...

Fake It Until You Make It: The Small Stuff
http://revivingflood.blogspot.com/2011/12/small-stuff.html
Fake It Until You Make It. Tuesday, December 6, 2011. I was going for something more profound, but then again, I think some of the best writing is just honest writing - the pure, unadulterated kind of honesty. So here it is: I am very very grateful to be home tonight. I usually am grateful to be here, though, so I'm not sure why tonight is any more different. Or could it be that I'm getting married in 25 days and this is one of my last opportunities to "bach it"? And know that I am God;. To simply enjoy ...

Fake It Until You Make It. Sunday, August 7, 2011. She began to shiver and feel feverish so eventually I squeezed her inside of my sleeping bag with me to keep her warm, using her sleeping bag to cover our heads. She was able to sleep for at least a couple of hours. I don't know that I was that lucky, but the important thing is that we survived and that we had a story to tell. I read some more Psalms on my own to try and get my heart and mind in a better place than it was. Here's what came next:. It was ...
