| Abortion, President, and 11/4I don't like to talk about politics much because I don't think it really matters much in the grand scheme of things (yes, I do vote, I'm not irresponsible. In fact I've already voted by mail). Nonetheless, this article is worth linking to.

The most striking paragraphs are the last few. Dr Mohler doesn't beat around the bush. It was a hard article to swallow (and I imagine even harder for others I know to swallow), and by no means is the Republican candidate very appealing either, but at the end of the day, when you're supposed to "vote your conscience," the choice becomes rather obvious. | | |
| Two thingsFirst: I read Galatians 4 as part of my devotions this morning. What a crazy chapter on the crazy reality that we're ADOPTED CHILDREN OF GOD. Oh dang. And also, I thought of my brother Michael when I read the beginning of v24: "Now this may be interpreted allegorically..." Hehe 
Second: goodbye Xanga. Wordpress time. I might do cross-posting if I'm bored and set up the appropriate scripts to do it. Or maybe not, because the clean change is nice.

| I'm contemplating ditching Xanga for Wordpress. Why? Because it feels more like a blog that demands serious, well-thought-out posts as opposed to a place where I just barf things out. That'll be good for me, because it's a bad idea to be hasty with words.
And because Google Reader is a more than adequate replacement for the Xanga subscriptions page.

| I think it's immensely humbling to realize that so much of the impact that I've had on others for Christ's sake was on people who kind of didn't really need to be impacted in the first place. They are already awesome, already teachable, already eternal-minded, already loving Christ with great vigor. And on an even more sobering note, those that perhaps needed that impact more often remain set in their erroneous (or perhaps just less-than-best) ways.
Yeah, I'm not needed. It's good to remember that. My God is never ever served by human hands as though He needed anything.
