One, of my, favorite stories, Honey, though it's hard, to imagine you, doing something, like that! (Hope that's, enough commas for ya!)

Hi, Greg, your blog just came up with Blogger next random blog within a large series of religious blogs...interesting and somewhat different for Blogger. I shall continue.:)

Nice post, Greg. As you suggest, even now we are either bringing glory to our Father or bringing shame to Him. Would that we all would consider this as we live each day as His Children!

Thanks for stopping by! And yes, the "Temple" theme and typology is an amazing testament to the Person and Work of Christ.

Hello Greg,

Simple but so profound and true. My husband used to tell the kids that their bad behavior would cause others to look at us as bad parents. I have realized tho that you can be the worst parents and your kids can turn out great or you can be some awesome parents and your kids turn out to be bad. It really does cause one to think about what kind of ambasssador he or she is being for the Lord tho. Even tho He is the greatest Father ever we sure can act like spoiled brats sometimes which causes others to look at Jesus in a bad light. This is why we must keep our eyes on Jesus and realize that we as mere humans will fall short sometimes, but of course this doesn't give one license to misbehave themselves. We should strive to be Christ like and be that awesome example and witness of a child of God!

Great post:)

'Take my friend Wes, who learned not only that it's a stupid idea to impulsively throw a rock at a classic car, but also that God's forgiveness (and sometimes that of grumpy neighbors) knows no bounds. Well, his story reminded me of the time I threw potatoes at a little old lady....'

Well, sadly I have done dumb things too.

'I was ducking behind my wall, but I could hear her yelling, up toward the building. She said something to the effect of, "Shame on you! Your parents should have raised you better!"'

;)

In our teens my friend and I casually threw rotten apples from a nearby tree at our old elementary school and at the time it did not bother me at all.

Thanks for stopping by, guys!

Larry, I can't remember, but it might've knocked the bag out of her hand. I'm just thankful she wasn't physically hurt. And yes, that's my dad and me. I was probably close to my 1st b-day, and he was about the age I am now. Scary how time flies!

Dusty, you beat me in the prank department!

Well, if it makes you feel any better, I put a packet of lit firecrackers in my grandmother's back pocket....man could that woman dance!!!! Then, after the music died, I was dancing to the tune of a flyswatter. So, in the the grand scheme of things, what you did was small potatoes.

I enjoy reading what you have to write.

Now that's a good story :)

Greg,

Potatos? I would not want to be hit by a raw potato from any distance let alone 4 stories up. Ouch! Did it knock the bag right out of the lady's hand?

Very good example of how our behavior can reflect on others. And we need to be aware if we make ourselves known as Christians we will be reflecting Christ in our actions.

Is the picture you and your father?
