Thought for the Day (Page 172)

Why is the Casey Anthony trial being televised in America?

Of all the legal trials that are happening in courtrooms around our country right now, why is the murder trial of Casey Anthony making national television?  No doubt, we could explain it by pointing to the satisfaction that our society finds in sick, twisted and disturbing matters that are really none of their business (or any other number of explanations). Here’s the…

People get their lives so messed up!

If you could grab Satan by the neck (can you picture doing that?), what would you do with him?  Are you like me and get totally frustrated with the deceit, the traps, the lies, the temptations and the pretty picture that he puts on evil and all of its vices?  What would people’s lives look like (more specifically, what would the lives…

What is it that is well known about you?

There are often one or two qualities or facts that stick out and characterize someone in our minds.  For example, we might say or think something like this – “Oh, yes, I know him…he’s a huge Gator fan…he’s the one who drives that black Acura…he’s the one who always wears that orange shirt…”  “Oh, yes, I know her…she’s always dressed so immaculately…she’s…

Start afresh!

When our government talks about balancing the national budget, they are always talking about taking the existing budget (with all that has been accumulated over the years) and cutting things out of it.  When we look at our busy schedules and try to find room for something else, we always take the entirety of our existing schedule (with all that has been…

How many sins do babies have?

It is widely believed that babies come into this world having inherited sin from their ancestors.  If that is true (which it is not), how many sins does the average newborn baby have?  Does he have one, two, three?  Does he have 700, 800, 900?  For which sins of his ancestors is he guilty?  4,000?  5,000?  6,000?  No!  The answer is zero!…
