The ADMIRABLE things of the Lord Jesus Christ and those fully surrendered to Him. The potentially awful ways and consequences of those opposed to His authority. And the Adequate (after all, even the most successful lives consist at least partially of the mundane). Bible passages, stories, poems, pictures, reposts, and more ... it will all be here to contrast the best and worst, the most wonderful and most horrible. For God's glory and humankind's edification.

Good News website
Tired of all the negative news? Maybe this will lift your spirits. I found it on an Internet search.
A picture of what it means to stand strong
Mexican mayor attacked by gangs shows her scars, and helps show us what it means to stand strong against evil. God bless her, and may she inspire others to not give up the good fight.
Vicious Attack On Wendy's Worker in Queens
Vicious Attack On Wendy's Worker in Queens
This is what happens when an employee at Wendy's tries to calm down a fight at the restaurant. Please pray that the woman who was attacked will get better, and that those who attacked her don't get away with it.

Heroes in Arizona
Just wanted to add my appreciation to these four fine people who helped avert what could have been a significantly greater tragedy. May each of you be blessed mightily for your courage. May those who were injured be on the mend as soon as possible, and may the loved ones of the deceased by comforted by God's great love.

Raping of the already heartbroken
Several months after tens of thousands die in a Haiti earthquake, rapes rampant in refugee camps. As you can see in my description about this blog, one of the things I write about are the worst depravities. This is certainly in that category.

You just never know
He might not be Ted Williams the Hall of Fame baseball player, but who knows--with his voice (also here) he could go a long way toward his own Hall of Fame induction. Thing is, Mr. Williams was homeless, a drug addict, and an alcoholic. Now he's being offered a job with the Cleveland Cavaliers...and a house. Other offers have reportedly followed, and no doubt that's just the start.
"Just to get back to some normalcy and responsibility -- If I can a job, whether it's a twenty-five or even $18,000, I'd be happy," he said. "At least I know God has me where he wants me."
Nobody can guarantee you or I will be given such an opportunity; but Mr. Williams, I pray for all the success possible for you, and more than anything that this situation will give hope to others who are struggling that God can & does bless the downtrodden.
