Our greatest need is connection, to be known, to be seen. But most of us are not brave enough. We have too much to hide. Too much shame. Too much fear. But we have a Father who does see us. He knows us completely. Even our shame. And he chose to love us. He is faithful to it. He wants you to know it's safe to love him back. He forgives you. He completes you. He fills you with joy and wonder. He has given you purpose. That purpose is love. Here are a few scraps of thought so you can "see" me.

I apologize for the quality of the video. I am still working out the best settings.
You do know, PP, that your daughters are listening to this, right? But on Star Trek, they put the lazers on stun... the only time people are concerned about a murder, anymore, is when it has happened really close...
When I hear that someone was killed, it does effect me, but probably not nearly as much as it should. *And Ray, they don't only use the stun setting, they oft use the kill setting on their phasers(not lasers :D). :P*
For me sometimes when poeple die like the guy at MTL-N that thouch me even if I don't know the personne thats part of me and I think thats good. RIP PIPO -
So I guess my follow up question would want to address what Noah asked. Do we have a right to decide over life and death, no matter what kind of person we are considering? Do we have more right to kill a bad person than a good person? An old person than a young person? A diseased person than an healthy person?
I'm sorry that i didn't do a comment is just shut down so I'm doing it now the video was just fine I think it is and yeah i think that's it i read my bible today and yesterday :-)

It is true that when i hear someone died, it doesn't do anything to me

I don't always flash back anger when I'm in a bad mood....maybe sometimes but not all the time.
No need for us to tell them, you did :). But you're right, when someone has died that I don't know, it doesn't effect me...
hum and what about if u kill someone who is a very bad person?

I don't really get affected when I hear that a person/people died recently... So dad... don't you think we should talk about me watching CSI now? :D
yeah I think we get used to things way to easily, no matter what it is

No, we don't. We shouldn't think that we can decide... Do not murder... never said, do not murder good people, but bad ones, that's ok....
