No scripture

 I was locked out of the internet for a few days so I will publish two blogs today.

Can I write a post without referring to a scripture? I think I can, especially if I get political. Not that I necessarily want to. As we read over a life time, the scripture should become a part of us. We should teach it to our children everyday as we talk and interact with them.(yes that is Biblical) I don't think we want to be like the religious leaders of Bible days. They wanted to be seen as good. They would wear scriptures on parts of their clothing. Much of what they did and practiced was to be seen.  Don't we do that on the political scene today?  We worry about how we appear to the majority of voters. We hold our finger up to see which way the wind is blowing and that determines our stand on the issues. I don't know if I could be a politician today, there would be too much dirt in the past for reporters to dig up. There has to be something bad they could dig up after 4 divorces from the exes. Has my life changed? Am I different then I was 40 years ago? 30 years ago I was still in my first marriage. 20 years ago I was in my second marriage. 10 years ago, I had already been divorced 4 times. I think we all change over the years. I think in 20 years all these young men with sagging britches will be looking back and thinking - What was I thinking?  I believe I have changed, I think back and wish I could change some things in my past.  Its too late, all any of us can do is from here on, to change.  Even in the last 4 years, I wish I could go back and do some things over. I want to be remembered as a good Christian, I would like to be remembered as a good father, I would like to be remembered as a good husband, friend, brother. Most of all I hope when I face God, he knows me. Every day doesn't have to be good, but the end has to be covered. It doesn't matter how bad I started out, it matters how I end. God bless, LVZ.
