OH COME ON! Back in my day ...

that, my audience is what i want to say to my generation when i am pelleted by a phrase: "I'M BORED". Bored reminds of a 2x4 it just lays there .. AND ROTS .. that's what it does, it can get eat by termites (who do eat better when listening to rock music). i am 23 (getting old, ugh) and i am dumb founded how some one can set at the edge of everything ever (basically) and say they have NOTHING to do. The Internet is a phenomenal place, you can learn anything from how an eye contact is made, what the stock market is doing, local AND national gas prices, and many many many many many many things .. AND MORE! its an amazing place - there are those *bad* corners and everything is NOT all good BUT good is mostly out there.

its 3 am .. sorry if the writing is horrible.

i leave you with some scripture, to ponder on, the pondering of pondering. some of these you must look in context BUT it is worth the look. (my comments in parentheses)

• Mat 12:36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
  
• Pro 19:15 Slothfulness casteth into a deep sleep; and an idle soul shall suffer hunger. (two effects of LAZINESS)
  
• Ecc 10:18 By much slothfulness the building decayeth; and through idleness of the hands the house droppeth through. (if you don't do upkeep - ceiling caves in)
  
• Eze 16:49 Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy (read the 10 fold sin of Judah: versus 47-52 is this what America is coming to?)
  
• 1Ti 5:13 And withal they learn to be idle, wandering about from house to house; and not only idle, but tattlers also and busybodies, speaking things which they ought not.

God Bless you, your house & God Bless planet earth (we need it!!)

PS. When growing up we didn't get our first computer that was on the Internet until 8th grade. its a Gateway, we still have it and it still RUNS. we didn't have CD burners, DVD burners, ipods or a laptop, we had a much smaller, slower internet and we still didn't have boredom moments.

BORED? May i suggest a book? ITS THE BIBLE - if you cant quote it all the way though you haven't read it enough!

BORED? May i suggest an activity? ITS PRAYING .. try it.
- 7 days with out prayer = 1 weak
- prayerlessnes IS a sin of omission! (keep that in mind)

CANT THINK OF ANYTHING TO EAT?
- FAST, no not sprinting but make up in your mind that you will skip the meal, and eat the next time or simply not eat until a certain time such as midnight then you will be hungry AND if you done your fasting correct it will bring GOD glory (we, the church exist for that purpose anyway, right?)
