Luke 6:45 tells us that it’s “out of the abundance of the heart” that our mouths speak. Such a good and needed reminder. One that isn’t meant to be a condemnation, but rather an invitation to let our words help us examine what is really going on in our hearts.

Your thoughts and prayers are useless when we continue to be shot and killed in our schools. Empty promises don't keep us alive. The inaction of the past cannot overshadow the urgency of today. We need change NOW.

THIS IS NOT NORMAL. THIS IS NOT NORMAL. THIS IS NOT NORMAL. THIS IS NOT NORMAL. THIS IS NOT NORMAL. America, don't look away.
The front page of tomorrow's @dailytarheel – I shed many tears while typing up these heart-wrenching text messages sent and received by UNC students yesterday. Our campus was on lockdown for more than three hours. Beyond proud of this cover and the team behind it.

It’s time to finish the job and ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. Because who in God’s name needs a 100-round magazine on a gun? That's a weapon of war.

I have posted this before but .. 26 years ago, a gunman entered Dunblane Primary School in Scotland, killing 16 kids and a teacher. The UK govt responded by enacting tight gun control legislation. In the 9400+ days since, there have been a total of O school shootings in the UK.

“From the time you were very little, you've had people who have smiled you into smiling, people who have talked you into talking, sung you into singing, loved you into loving. Let's take some time to think of those extra special people.”

"To avoid the anxieties caused by either regret for the past or fear of the future, here is a rule to follow: leave the past in God's measureless mercy, the future to God's loving providence, give the present wholly to God's love thru fidelity to his grace" Jean Pierre deCaussade

On the day I die, all the important appointments I made will be left unattended. The many plans I had yet to complete will remain forever undone. The calendar that ruled so many of my days will now be irrelevant to me. johnpavlovitz.com/2016/02/29…

Why do they have all these women’s conferences called “awaken” or “awake” or “revive” or “alive.” I want to host a conference called “rest” and women will come, and they’ll get a pillow and blanket on check in, and we’ll just all nap.

You can just start calling yourself an olympic hopeful. You don't have to fill out a form or anything.

“It may well be that we will have to repent in this generation. Not merely for the vitriolic words of the bad people and the violent actions of the bad people, but for the appalling silence and indifference of the good people who sit around and say, "Wait on time.””

Instead of posting about politics, what If we were salt and light? “Lord make me an instrument of Thy peace, where there is hatred, let me sow love....” caustic, hateful name calling & finger pointing is getting us nowhere.

The great thing about faith in God is that it keeps a man undisturbed in the midst of disturbance. @myutmost
