    "...yesterday, Yesterday!  Country roads, take me home..."
    Yesterday.  Ah, what a day.  First, I hit 10,000 photos on my EOS 5D.  I would have hit it alot sooner, except that I took so few photos at the end of '06.  I was so caught up in the day though that I completely forgot about it until today.  Sadly though # 10000 didn't really turn out, so I posted the 9999th photo.  After my shooting spree in the house though, I moved on to enjoy the Ohio tundra outside.  It was then that I learned that no matter how good your coat (I read that and see goat) or how layered underneath, no matter how good your gloves or hood, and no matter how insulated your feet... you still freeze in zero and below temperatures if you wear no other layers underneath your jeans.  BRRR!  But I had fun shooting anyway.  I'm out to do the same today since it's reportedly going to be snowing soon, so plenty of photos for the next few days.  How cold does it have to be before you refuse to go outside?

    What if every believer... Part 5
    What if every believer, realizing that they are fully loved by God the Father, saw every other person as also being loved completely by God?  Not just believers.  Every single other person.  The God that created each and every one of us loves each and every one of us.  Yet believers still look upon so many as if they need not care.  So a person cut you off?  If Christ can look upon them in love, can you really build up so much anger against them?  So a person betrayed your trust?  How many of even those closest to Him betrayed Jesus, yet He still loved them.  I don't mean that Christians be the doormats of the world.  Actions do indeed have consequences.  But what if believers were more concerned with other people's view of God rather than other people's view of themselves?  What if all believers allowed such a work in their heart by the Spirit of God that they could look at others as Christ does?  What would that body of believers look like then?
