Driving home from work this late evening with the windows down brought to this writer's olfactory nerve the smell of honey-suckle various other scents of late spring, early summer. Listening to "The Story" from Caedmon's Call In Company of Angels II such a simple truth I find woven into that song. towards the end of song Andy Osenga sings of "can you tell me the story.....I need to hear it again."
At times I find myself there needing the hear the story of my saviour again so it doesn't lose its wonder.
As I drove home tonight and took in the night I was reminded of the constitutionals about the streets Jeff City late at night and how I longed to be there again.
Dear friends, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well.
Grace and Peace. <><

In The News
Well as gas prices surge and the suits on Capitol Hill try figure out to fix the problem I sit here and think on current events such as high gas prices. Well for me I drive Saturn I get good MPG so I really don't have a quarrel about the price when I'm only filling up every 2 weeks or so.
In other news we saw Zacarias Moussaoui to life without parole yesterday. A debate arose from this. One side saying that he deserves to die....What I call the standard death penalty crowd. Then there are those that say he should spend the rest of his life in prison. This case is a special one cause it involves a follower of a very fundamental religion. According to radical Muslims Moussaoui dead at the hands of the "infidels" he would be a martyr and we would see even more deaths of American soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan. Yet could Moussaoui spending the rest of his life in prison might give the enemy the propaganda fuel to say that America doesn't have to guts to give one the death penalty.
I say let him spend the rest of his life in prison. He is on record saying he wanted to die so deny him his religious and personal victory and save the lives of American soldiers in the long run.
I'm interested in what you (those who frequent my blog think....??) please use the comments to their full and complete potential.
