Today is Middle Child's Day. According to www.holidayinsights.com, "Middle Child's Day gives a little well deserved recognition to the wonderful and special middle child in the family."  Since a middle child is likely to feel left out, this is an excellent idea because "older and younger children tend to be more outgoing, or extroverted, and the middle child tends to be more introverted, quieter, perhaps a bit of a loner" (www.holidayinsight.com).

Living Proof

"The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God..." (Psalms 53.1KJV). Yesterday, I my opened my bible to this passage of scripture. This verse is a fitting way to start my first blog entry and introduce myself, since I am the exact opposite of the person described here. I am a born-again believer. I know that God exists; He is real. "We are living proof," as Yolanda Adam sings on her lastest album, Becoming. How could anyone fail to believe in God? Can you imagine a world without God and the things He created? That place is undesirable to me. Hence, I post the following poem, "Imagine":

Imagine
Inspired by Genesis 1st Chapter, KJV

Imagine a world without day but just night.
We would view only darkness--what sign of light?
Imagine the firmament gone from above.
Skyless would be the flight of the dove.

Imagine having water minus dry land.
Where would the ground be to rest on for the sand?
Imagine if vanished were grass, herbs, and trees.
What would we have to eat or pleasant to see?...
