some haiku in no particular order

I've got football on the brain.  Just watched the Colts today and we're off to the Superbowl!  The following haiku are not connected exactly...though they are a little tunnel visioned. 
Warning, these are obviously not traditional haiku.




    The Win
kickoff commences--
early lead fades quickly but
we're a comeback team



Manning

four time mvp
he's lead us to victory
now another ring?



Career Highs
Oh! Pierre Garcon,
how lovely were your catches, and
how swift were your feet.



Austin Collie
how much fun to be
an NFL rookie bound
for the Superbowl.


Perfect Season?
Fans learn their lesson
Caldwell, Colts define their own
perfect season end.


Colts vs. Saints
They're Miami bound
Two weeks until the big game

Someone's history...


Go Colts!

BSF Study Finishing Up Leviticus

Leviticus 26 is a good read. It's the blessings and punishments the Lord details to the Isrealites for obeying or disobeying the decrees and laws handed down at Mt. Sinai. First God lays out the blessings and they are wonderful. Abundant crops, peace, victory over enemies, God dwelling and walking among the people...the first 13 verses are brimming with promises of rewards for obeying God's decress and law. Then, dude, there's a lot of punishments. And yes, they are terrible. The consequences of disobeying God are numerous and destructive and, quite frankly, depressing. Four times, in verses 18, 21, 24 & 28, God says that He will punish their sins 7x over. That's heavy. But all this despair is not without hope. Starting in verse 40 God shows the way out of disobedience and wrath....confess their (the Isrealites) sins, humble their uncircumcised hearts and pay for their sins (by the sin offering set up earlier in the Law). THEN God says He will not reject them,...

Always with the new beginnings

Wow. A lot can change in a couple months. My first year in Bible Study Fellowship is now over. It's weird. I'm sad to be losing my discussion group. They're a wonderful collage of women from whom I have learned much. They've made me laugh, they've touched my soul and shown me perspectives I could never truly imagine on my own. In another week and half, my ladies Bible study group on Wednesday, which I lovingly nickname my McDanell study, will be finishing up our current book called The Cycles of Victorious Living by Earl and Hazel Lee. It's a good book and I would recommend it. A little birdie called the church bulletin, informed me the Wednesday night group would study Hebrews next. I hope that is true--I'm ready for digging into a book of the Bible study. Lastly, my small group has started a new book. (Yes, I was in three Bible studies this winter. No, I'm probably not doing that again). The book is something Dave L. was reading and thought we'd...

Why I Can't Stand My Pride

Uh....'cause it always comes before I fall? Seriously, doing so well the last few weeks.  On a total high spiritually and BAM!  Helloooo temptation!  Did I resist?  A few days ago, not so much.  I wish I could say I at least struggled a little.  But I let myself be caught off guard. Sheilds down, no defensive measures activated....you get the idea. Thank God for his grace and mercy.  He loves me when I mess up.  I talked with a good friend who reminded me that Christ died for my sins.  All of them. There's something I've heard from a couple pastors and read in a book recently.  I can't remember any specific reference but I'm going to say it anyway.  Either sin keeps you from the Bible or the Bible keeps your from sin. So true just from looking at my life the last couple of weeks.  So I dived back into the Word via, well, the Word. :)   I'm also keeping Every Woman's Battle Promise Book close to me.  ...
