A Question

.........
This is just a fun question I like to ask people: If you could pick out any song to play when Christ returns to Earth (not the rapture), what would it be?

One of the best responses I have heard was "Beautiful Day" by U2 (probably more so the chorus). Good choice in my opinion. I have a couple I would pick, but after studying for finals all day I can only recall one ("Days of Elijah"...the "There's no God like Jehova" part).

What would yours be? I need participation for this to work, otherwise its a pretty dull blog (which might lead to me not posting as often or not at all). Post your answer(s) in the comments. For those who don't know how to do that, listen up...

1. At the end of each new post (post = what I write) there is a link that stats "0 Comments" (or however many comments may be there...generally 0). Click on that and it will take you to the comments page. Here you can see the comments others have posted AS WELL AS LEAVE YOUR OWN. You do not need to sign up or have a membership or draw blood to do this.

2. On the right of the screen, there is a box you type your comment in (it even says "Leave Your Comment"). Simply type in words using your keyboard.

3. Underneath the comment box, it says "Select an Identity". IF you have a membership on Blogspot then you should already know what to do. For the rest of you, select "Other" and type in your name. You can also be Anonymous, but then where is the fun in that?

4. Finally, underneath the name section, it has a "Word Verification". Type in the letters it shows and then press the "Publish Comment" button.

And there you have it. Pretty simple. So please take a few seconds and let me know what
song(s) you would pick out.

Hey! You Look Just Like....

..........
Have you ever been compared to a celebrity? Most of the time (the person being compared) wonders how on earth they could look like such and such.

My sister found a wicked sweet website where you can see exactly who you look like.

It is www.myheritage.com Registration is free and takes maybe 1 minute. You load a picture of you (or whoever) and it scans your face. It then pulls up numerous pictures of celebs you look like. For instance, I had comparrisons to Matt Damon which really shot up my self esteem. Especially since it also compared me to Rachel Bilson (O.C. fame).

There is also an option to find out what historical/family tree connections you may have, but I haven't looked into that yet. There may be a fee if you want to go that route.

Go check it out though. It's a lot of fun and even addictive.

Props to Amy.

Resurrection Sunday

.......
And there he finished his work, on the third day.
..........
.....
Remember…
.....
-------------------------------------------------
.....
May everyone remember the true reason for this day, and the only reason for our salvation. Those who choose Christ, who surrendered His own life for our sake, will receive forgiveness for their sins and eternal life.

Happy Resurrection Sunday!


"Alas My Love" by DC Talk
Album: Jesus Freak (1998)

Silent Saturday

...



No candle-burning vigil could light the way
darkness hit the ground, like a fallen satellite.













He wrestled until morning with human souls and dark angels...












--------------------------------
To be concluded

Great Friday

........


Alas my love you say goodbye,
wipe the poison from my brow.
Alas my love this guilty night,

gives me up like a foster child.





And in this moment I take my vow,
with these angels sleeping at my feet.
And in this moment you do not know how, how my spirit wants to flee.

You see it was one man against the night, taking on a multitude that had left him high and dry...

---------------------------------

To be continued tomorrow

Robert's Land...Now Fat Free!

......
Robert's Land is up and running again! I made a few changes while rebuidling. My link sections are expanded and a little more specific (ie - I put all my favorite sport related links together).

I think I found all my previous video clips. If you didn't get a chance to see them before, be sure to check them out (my favs are still the 2 Tom Cruise clips) .

I also added a few new sections; the most important being a new photo album powered by Yahoo. It is currently under construction, but keep checking back for updates to that section.
Besides that and my "Favorite Movies" section, everything is back to normal, but also much improved I hope. I even added a new poll as a 'thanks' for everyone's patience.

So welcome back, be sure to take your shoes off at the door and enjoy!

Dern It

....
As you can see, my blog is having some issues. While changing my background, all my good side bar info vanished so I am in the process of rebuilding. Hopefully it will be back up and better than new soon.
