O teach me Lord to walk this road,
the road of simple living;
to be content with what I own
and generous in giving.
And when I cling to what I have
please wrest it quickly from my grasp;
I'd rather lose all the things of earth
to gain the things of heaven!

to be content with what I own
and generous in giving.

Remove those filthy clothes.
In Zechariah 3, God forgives generations of wrong-doing in one day, and the result is that we invite our neighbor to sit under our vine and our fig tree!
So what do we call that day, Zechariah? ☺️🕯

Loading my beautiful children Kayleigh, Hrayden, and Hiytler-Anne into my FürherTruck ChildCrusher450. Idling an hour in the parking lot of the local church INSPYR to view the nativity scene, belching carbon into the troposphere. I notice the Joseph is looking a little swarthy. Christmas is ruined

This is actually a good example of why the customer model is wrong.
I wouldn't have chosen poetry writing, but UNC made me take a class. And it absolutely made me become a much better writer, with an eye to concision and an ear now trained to the rhythm of words. I'm a better historian as a result.

If you are providing me with an education that is low utility in the world then it’s a disservice. My composition class spent four weeks on poetry. I’m sorry, but that only would’ve been useful if I wanted to be a poet. I don’t need to know iambic pentameter in order to be a victim advocate.
