Bible Stories
The last thing that I was known as being before this journey began for me was that of a rebel or an extremist. I essentially blended in with the world. I was a mannequin with no relevant direction or purpose in life. I was just like everyone else. And then I was rescued and saved by my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ Almighty ! I’ve been on a journey following and obeying Him for the past 32 months now, and the world has conveniently identified and classified me as an extreme radical right-wing Jesus freak nut job looney tune. I am weird. I am wacky. I must be smoking the weeds.
The fact of the matter is that Jesus Christ was the ultimate rebel. He was the King of all radical extremists. In order to follow a rebel you’ve got to be a rebel. You’ve got to stand out from the crowd that is the world. You’ve got to wake up and activate from the evil and the darkness of the night. You’ve got to kick the devil hard in the face and tell him to get lost. You’ve got to take a stand and make a difference here on Earth. You’ve got to walk in His shoes and be His legs and His feet here on Earth.
It takes a rebel to know a rebel. It’s as simple as that, so call me extreme.
Matthew 24:9-14 (NLT, 2ND Ed.)
9 “Then you will be arrested, persecuted, and killed. You will be hated all over the world because you are my followers.
10 And many will turn away from me and betray and hate each other.
11 And many false prophets will appear and will deceive many people.
12 Sin will be rampant everywhere, and the love of many will grow cold.
13 But the one who endures to the end will be saved.
14 And the Good News about the Kingdom will be preached throughout the whole world, so that all nations will hear it; and then the end will come.
TODAY for a dependable and delicious Lunch I went to Shanghai in Homestead‘s Waterstone Plaza (Speedway Boulevard & Biscayne Drive).
I picked up my usual for $6.26 (including tax) – the ‘L2′ and an eggroll – and it was ready and waiting for me upon my arrival in ’10 minute’.
Here’s my Fortune Cookie Message fan club members:

MEMO TO SELF – Get a haircut at Woody’s this Friday.
Going back to the last couple of months of 2007 Tuesday is the most-visited day of the week of this blog by a fairly substantial margin over the running average of the other six days of the week.
This weekly blog series is why that is so:
1. I am so glad to be back at home again using a computer that actually works properly with the rest of the world (cyberspace). We had rolling Internet blackouts today at work. It affected some people more than other people. I couldn’t do much on my computer system at work from about 7:30 AM until the time that I left work this afternoon. Hopefully they will fix all of those problems between now and tomorrow morning. I have work to do at work !
2. I would be very upset if my brand new A.C. condensing unit (outside) was not working properly. I am not upset at all. It works fabulously, and my home hasn’t felt this comfortably cool and dry in many years. I’m glad that I finally got that taken care of before the hot and humid summer season begins.
3. A late-season cold front will sweep through America’s Riviera late tomorrow (Wednesday) night. This will mark the start of about 5 days and 5 nights of more bearable springtime weather with maximum daytime high temperatures right around the 80°F mark and minimum nighttime low temperatures in the refreshing low-to-mid-60s.
4. Checkers may have wings, but the wings that I had from them last week were not big and meaty but rather tiny and tasteless. They were downright pitiful. The fries however was just as delicious as I remember them to be once upon a time ago when I used to go to Checkers every week for Lunch. The fried apple pies (2 for $1) were the absolute BOMBZ ! Nobody makes apple pies like that anymore !
5. On Monday May 11TH 2009 U.S. postage climbs 2¢ to 44¢ for a typical first class letter of one ounce or less. 10 years ago in 1999 we were paying 33¢. 20 years ago in 1989 it was 25¢. 30 years ago in 1979 it was 15¢. 40 years ago in 1969 it was 6¢.
SPECIAL BONUS 6. ! This Thursday and Friday I plan to see two movies at the box office – “I Love You, Man” and “Adventureland“. I’ve been in a box office drought so far in 2009 having seen only one flick – “Slumdog Millionaire“. I need to catch up with my current movie viewing. I can’t watch everything via Netflix.
Those are my thoughts on this Tuesday night. Thank You for spending some quality time with me.
