Merciful God

"I will say to the prisoners, 'Come out in freedom', and to those in darkness, "Come into the light'. They will be my sheep, grazing in green pastures and on hills that were previously bare. They will neither hunger nor thirst. The searing sun will not reach them anymore. For the LORD in his mercy will lead them; and he will lead them beside cool waters. And I will make my mountains into level paths for them. The highways will be raised above the valleys. See, my people will return from far away, from the lands to the north to the west, and from as far south as Egypt." ~ Isaiah 49:9-12

"Our lives are like water spilled out on the ground, which cannot be gathered up again. But God does not just sweep life away; instead, he devises ways to bring us back  when we have been separated from him." ~ 2 Samuel 14:14 

In a Philosophy class........

 In a Philosophy class, all conversations will point to God. I like when God is mentioned in the class- because then I get to talk about Him and it's like talking about an old friend that I loved, and still loved, the company of.

Current Fixation: Astronauts

 When I was younger, I considered being an astronaut, but that was before I realized how much math was involved. So I'm not going to be an astronaut in the future, but I have a fascination with them. So as I drink a C drink with Wall E playing in the background, I'll tell you why......

I think one of the things that gives our human species our humanity is the ability and pull toward the unknown- exploring the world above or below us. I think NASA's missions are interesting: Friendship 7, Apollo 13, and the Moon Landing, among many others. (Missions that can be classified under Human Spaceflight.) The spaceships look cool and mechanical. I like the idea of the astronauts orbiting back around and getting to go back home.
