In the last couple years, the 'Christmas Season" begins earlier and earlier. This year stores had Christmas decorations up starting at least a week and a half BEFORE Halloween!! What's up with that? Maybe they think that it some how puts customers in a better mood. Well I can tell you that its the exact opposite for me...especially when they start playing a million different renditions of the same five popular christmas songs. Personally I boycotted any store that had christmas decorations or advertisments before Thanksgiving. It doesnt really make a difference in the long run, but it makes me feel better.

We've got a nation of church goers, but not a whole lot of disciples. Ichabod — the glory has truly departed. The light has dimmed. <i>"It is because of the Lord's mercies we are not consumed"</i> (Lamentations 3:22) Selah, indeed. I hope Walmart does right by this man's family.

I think we are, at this time in history, waaaay worse than the citizens of Sodom and Gomorrah! I just wonder if it's the ozone layer that is keeping the fire from raining down this time... It is amazing the things we will line up and camp out for -- American Idol mediocrity, Makin' the Band XX tomfoolery, Beyonce' tickets, seasonal sales -- but we (me included) won't devote that kind of time to Godly pursuits. "Big ups, Jesus!" Oh, what weight the Grace. Yeah, my forehead got pretty hot about that one!
