I am sorry i didn't get one in yesterday, we were celebrating my brothers birthday, because he will be in basic training during his birthday, and we went to see 'Land of th Lost'. But today i learned something amazing about the plagues God put on Egypt each one was placed against an Egyptian God showing that He is the Only God. For example the Sun-god Ra was hidden behind a cloud, and Pharoh's first born(plus all the Egyptians) first born were killed. (This is big since Pharoh is viewed as a god) and the river god was turned into blood!
I had never really noticed that before, the book that showed me that was 'The Bible Jesus Read' by Philip Yancey. Thats just one of many signs that show the Christian God as THE ONLY GOD! The all-powerful, all-knowing, and all-seeing God! And honestly what other religion tells of GOD HIMSELF, coming to Earth just to save thoughs who turned from him and ridiculed him! It is amazing to think of the God we have. He made the stars with his breath, he SPOKE, and i repeat, SPOKE the UNIVERSE into existance! What a mighty God we serve! He deserves our worship, and he deserves us. He is, and we are not! Yet he allows us to speak his name, praise him(for he is worthy of our praise, but I know we are not worthy enough to praise him) BUT HE LETS US! HE ACTUALLY TELLS US TOO!. And to thoughs of you thinking 'look how far he has fallen for this' but these thoughts are like going to(wait) it is going to him who can destroy both body and soul and saying 'your not worthy' what guts, but guts are easy if your unaware. Praise be to our Lord and our Savior Jesus Christ.

Growth in God
Basically charting my growth in God
"BUT ALL the optimism of the age had been false and disheartening for this reason, that it had always been trying to prove that we fit in to the world. The Christian optimism is based on the fact that we do NOT fit in to the world." - G.K. Chesterton
