Physical Fitness vs. Spiritual Fitness
It is a mistake, however, to apply this same thinking to spiritual training. Romans 3:20 says "For by works of the law no human being will be justified in his sight, since through the law comes knowledge of sin." If we are relying on our efforts to draw us closer to God, or to make us righteous we are in for a huge disappointment. The truth is that we cannot, on our own power, be righteous at all. The "law" of spiritual growth is this: our effort (even if we are trying to be righteous) + our sin nature = greater sin. It is a continuing loop of defeat and sin that will never end.
The Apostle Paul wrote about this struggle in his own life in Romans 3:15-18 "For I do not understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate. Now if I do what I do not want, I agree with the law, that it is good. So now it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells within me. For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh. For I have the desire to do what is right, but not the ability to carry it out."
By the end of this description Paul cries out "Wretched man am I! Who will deliver me from this body of death?"
Paul answers his own question in Romans 8:1-4 "There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death. For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do. By sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin,c he condemned sin in the flesh, in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit."
The key to spiritual training is to look to the one who started, finished, and perfected the training for you: Jesus Christ. His life, death, and resurrection provide a righteousness from God that we cannot ever produce through our efforts. It is the finished work of Christ on the Cross that provides everything we need for life and Godliness. To grow Spiritually is not a matter of trying harder, doing more, and performing better, but a matter of moving more and more deeply into the Gospel of Jesus Christ. His Grace has already made you perfect. What we have to do is to come to know the truth about ourselves (we are utterly sinful and every effort to produce righteousness is doomed to failure) and the truth about God (He has provided righteousness through the Gospel of His Son Jesus Christ.)
We are to keep our eyes focused on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith. To grow spiritually is to learn to rely on His Perfect life, His sacrificial death and His powerful resurrection in all things. The pain, then, is not the pain of effort and performance (which wear you out but provide nothing), but he pain of dying to self. It is the pain of realizing the truth, as Paul did, that "no good thing lives in my flesh" but that the finished work of Christ has already made you Holy in God's sight. So, no pain, no gain stands, but not in the area of effort, but rather, in the area of denying self.
How are you denying self today and relying on the Grace of God through Jesus Christ? Do you beat yourself up for not "doing more" or do you feel you have to "try harder" all the time? All these behaviors are based in the assumption that we can be righteous. Listen to the truth of the Gospel, because the Truth will set you free.

Intellectual Legalism
I remember when God led me to begin studying the scriptures I would read for hours, devouring everything I could. I loved reading commentaries and listening to teachers who seemed to have an endless wealth of knowledge. I loved every bit of it. Questions were being answered and life seemed to make more and more sense.
Then, it happened.
First, I began encountering differing opinions on what appeared to be straight-forward scriptures. Some were good food for thought while others seemed to be so far out in left field they might have been from a different Bible. Not only that, some of these teachers began to accuse those who dared to disagree with them of being God-hating heretics.
Then, I went to Bible college and seminary. Wow…that was eye opening. What seemed like a straight-forward call to make disciples was often turned into an argument regarding God's sovereignty and man's will. What looked like a call to God-focused spiritually responsive worship was turned into an argument regarding traditional forms versus new…well, you know the drill.
How does this happen? How can those who "know" the scriptures so well sometimes become the most divisive, unloving, and judgmental people in the room?
I've come up with a name for this phenomenon: intellectual legalism.
Our world is dominated by humanistic philosophies. Humanism is the belief that the human mind is the final arbiter of truth and is able to recognize and apply truth without outside help. In humanistic systems education reigns supreme due to the belief that the more knowledge a person gains, the better choices he or she will make, and the better person he or she will become.
There are those who seek to combine faith in God with humanism; they admit that truth is found in God, but that it is up to the individual to find it, define it and apply it. "Christian humanism" tells us that we can study our way into righteousness—by knowing more about God—as we seek and find the truth. The answer for a weak spiritual condition is simply more study. Learn the scriptures better and you will become a better person.
This, however, is not true Christian spirituality. Jesus ran into this exact same problem with the Pharisees. Look at John 5:37-39:
"And the Father who sent me has himself borne witness about me. His voice you have never heard, his form you have never seen, and you do not have his word abiding in you, for you do not believe the one whom he has sent. You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is they that bear witness about me…"
The Pharisees had a broader knowledge of the scripture than anyone and yet they did not recognize Jesus as the Son of God. They depended on their own intellectual abilities, which failed them. They were intellectual legalists. They believed that the more they knew, the more spiritual they were. We have the same problem today.
One of the counterintuitive things about Christianity is that Jesus didn't call us to find the truth; he called himself the truth. Our spirituality begins and ends with him. He is the "author and perfecter of our faith" (Hebrews 12:2). It is not our study or intellectual ability that gains us anything, but rather the perfect, finished work of Jesus Christ that gains us everything.
Just listen to how the apostle Paul describes the humanist mind in Ephesians 4:17-20:
"Now this I say and testify in the Lord, that you must no longer walk as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their minds. They are darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, due to their hardness of heart. They have become callous and have given themselves up to sensuality, greedy to practice every kind of impurity. But that is not the way you learned Christ!"
The first thing Paul tells us to do as Christians is to stop trusting our own intellect! The mind, apart from Christ, is futile, darkened, calloused, and given to sensuality. Worse, we deceive ourselves and equate theological information with knowing Jesus himself. We quickly forget that we did not marshal all of our intellectual power and so discover Christ. We forget that we know Christ because God graciously revealed Him to us.
The answer then, is to live under grace, even in our Bible study and discipleship. We must admit to ourselves that we cannot "figure God out" no matter how hard we study or how much we know. We are dependent on Him for all things.

An open letter to Joel and Victoria Osteen
Hello. My name is Dr. Roger Smith. I am a pastor of a small church in your home state of Texas and I want to invite you to attend my church and worship the Lord Jesus with our congregation. Why? Because you need to hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Let me explain.
I have listened to both of you preach on television many, many times and your messages are motivational, encouraging, positive, happy and basically, devoid of the greatest truth the world has ever known. I do not know if this is intentional or if you are truly unaware of the message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Either way, I would love the opportunity to tell you in person about the greatest truth the world will ever know.
The influence and reach of your ministry and books are truly mind-boggling and I can only imagine the influence that could be exerted if you started preaching the truth of the Gospel. I understand that many people are struggling and looking for hope. I understand that we live in confusing times and that people want and need something positive. I also understand that if you are going to call yourself a Christian preacher, you have a responsibility to preach Christ and Him crucified, something that has been conspicuously absent from every sermon I have ever heard from either of you.
You see, here is the truth I desperately want you and everyone else who will listen to understand, life is not about being the best I can be right now but about realizing the truth that all have sinned and fallen short of the Glory of God and in danger of facing eternal judgment from our Holy God. We were created to reflect the holiness and character of God, and we all sinned and fell short of that. Thus, on our own, we cannot be better through our own efforts and to focus solely on personal peace, prosperity, and success is a deadly distraction from the truth that awaits us in the final judgment.
On the day of judgment God is not going to ask us if we trusted him for a bigger house, a higher paycheck or personal satisfaction in the wealthiest country the world has ever seen. It is all going to come down to one thing, did we accept the righteousness offered through the perfect life, sacrificial death and powerful resurrection of Jesus Christ? Unfortunately, when I hear both of you preach a message that says God's greatest concern is our happiness and his greatest joy is our satisfaction in this world, I hear a message that is in direct contradiction to Jesus' call to deny self, take up a cross and follow Him in true discipleship and faith. It is in direct contradiction to the scriptures that tell us this world is not our home and it is dangerous because it takes attention off of the truth of repentance and faith in Jesus Christ and focuses people squarely their own thoughts, lives, and desires.
Honestly, I don't know if you know this and have chosen not to give millions of people the hope offered through the Gospel of Jesus Christ or if you truly have never really understood the message of the Gospel. I hope it is the latter because if you are willingly withholding the Gospel from millions of people who listen to you and trust you, well then, sir, you and your wife are in the position of being false prophets, and God does not take lightly to people claiming his Name and then pushing their own agenda. If this is the case, then, Joel, you and Victoria need to repent and call on God to show mercy. You need to look to the cross. Which brings me back to my invitation. I would like to invite you and Victoria to my congregation to hear the Gospel so you can have the chance to respond in faith to the only true Hope offered in this dying world: The cross of Jesus Christ.

Active Grace
One vivid memory from my childhood is my mother's love for exercise equipment. We always had some piece of exercise equipment in the house. I can remember a stationary bike, a rowing machine, a stationary bike with moving arms, a resistance workout bench, and a stair climbing machine were all, at one time or another, positioned neatly in our house in different places…holding laundry. Though the equipment was purchased with full "intent to use," and the knowledge that regular use would lead to better health, the truth is simple: they were rarely ever used for exercise.
It became a running joke: I used to give my mother a hard time when she would look at a new piece of exercise equipment. "This doesn't have enough room to hold more than four hangers," I'd say. "This one can hold some folded blankets, but nothing more." Yes, it really was that bad. And many of you know exactly what I am talking about.
The value in exercise equipment exists only through consistent use. Simply owning a rowing machine doesn't make you healthier, it just means you own a piece of equipment whose purpose is to help you along your journey toward fitness. It is the doing that matters. You actually have to row.
But imagine you could buy a piece of equipment that did the hard work for you. What if you were guaranteed to see results simply by making it a part of your life (as most owner of exercise equipment vainly hope)? If there was a guarantee of this kind of return, everyone would have a rowing machine.
This is what God's grace is like. It is guaranteed to bring results and change your life. It can do nothing else. When God sent his son to live a perfect life on our behalf, (to do the work for us) and die a sacrificial death on the cross in our place (to pay the price for us) it was so that we could be made into a new creation. 2 Corinthians 5:17 says "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come."
Wouldn't it be wonderful if that exercise bike could make the same promise? "If anyone purchase me from the store and take me home, he will be fit. Behold, the fat is gone, all things have been made trim." God's grace is the only force in the universe that can make this bold and wonderful claim. Through the grace offered by Jesus Christ you are made new. You are not merely given the tools to be made new, or taught how to improve yourself until you are new. No, you are a new creation simply through God's amazing, life-transforming grace.
Nowhere in Scripture does God command us to make ourselves new. Why? Because God knows we cannot do that. Look at what the Apostle Paul says in Romans 8:2-4:
For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death. For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do. By sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh, in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. (ESV)
See that? God, through grace, has done what the Law could not do. Law cannot create, it can only condemn. Grace does not condemn, but transforms death into life through the finished work of Jesus Christ. We are made fit without having to exercise!
Now comes the even more mind-blowing truth: it is grace alone that keeps us fit, as well! Martin Luther once said that grace "gives our works a work-out." Our lives now change from demanded exercise to grateful responses—exercises—of faith. Many people, though, think that once we are saved, we must maintain our righteousness through obedience. We get back on the exercise bike, determined to maintain by our own effort the sculpted spiritual physique that came as a pure gift from God. We submit ourselves "again to a yoke of slavery" (Galatians 5:1).
Paul ran into this type of regression in Galatia. In Galatians 3:2-3 Paul asks a question that we must all consider carefully. He said,
Let me ask you only this: Did you receive the Spirit by works of the law or by hearing with faith? Are you so foolish? Having begun by the Spirit, are you now being perfected by the flesh?
If grace was enough to save us from sin, renew us, and put us in a right relationship with God at the beginning, is it not enough to grow us in faith also? If we are trying to grow ourselves—or at least maintain our spiritual standing—then we are assuming that grace is actually not enough and that God needs our help in the matter. Is this harsh? Yes, it is. But the point must be made. If we can make ourselves holy by any effort, before or after salvation, then the cross is insufficient and a travesty.

Distraction and The Squirrel Everyone Loves!
But, I digress...
Distraction has become something of a national fad that is becoming more and more of a national nightmare. Texting and driving is killing way too many people and yet, every day we see someone driving distracted, or checking Facebook during a movie, or a family sitting together at dinner not talking because everyone has their phone out.
Seriously, when did we lose the ability to focus in America?
Apparently, this has been seen on the horizon for some time. Check out this comic strip from 1906 that predicts what will happen if a wireless telegraph machine is ever invented.
But, there is a deeper issue at work here that really is dangerous and needs to be addressed. As we lose our ability to focus we are also losing our ability to think deeply and critically about the issues that truly matter today. In our churches, pastors are commonly called on to be "more practical" with shorter sermons. Gone are the days of true theological discourse that could be "applied" to all areas of life because of its breathtaking depth. (See Jonathan Edwards if you would like an example.) No sir. Now the sermon is seen as the infomercial between schizophrenic worship sets that are complete with smoke and lights.
Churches are not the only group affected. Take our wonderful politicians in Washington and at the State level. Gone are the days of true debate where those running for office were allowed to question each other and had to give real, substantive answers. Nope, just stick to talking points, recycle old cliches and count on the public tuning you out after 30 seconds because some celebrity is drunk and acting the fool again.
Proverbs 4:25 says "Let your eyes look directly forward, and your gaze be straight before you."
One of the wisest men who ever lived, Solomon, warned us against allowing ourselves to be distracted. His instruction was to stay focused on our path, our destination, and our purpose. Solomon's dad David wrote in Psalm 119:147-148 "I rise before dawn and cry for help; I hope in your words. My eyes are awake before the watches of the night, that I may MEDITATE on your promises."
Rising early, staying awake at night and meditation on God's words are all images of prolonged focus. In an age of everything "right now" and even "Your Best Life Now" God's ways are calling us to slow down, focus and think about his promises and words. In short, we are to keep ourselves focused on the truth and refuse to be distracted from it.
If the ancient wisdom was to focus and think deeply, then the modern folly is to be distracted by everything and yet see nothing. If we want to stop being taken advantage of by slick politicians, catchy salespeople, and ill trained, theologically incompetent church leaders, it is time for us to stop worrying so much about who got voted off of Idol and start focusing on truth until it finds its way into our lives, our families and our communities.

Your Best Life?
Do you want to be happy? Do you want fulfillment? Do you feel like you were made for success? Then we have an offer for you! It is time for you to live "Your Best Life Now!" Pastor Joel Osteen wants to help you become everything you ever wanted to be because as a child of the King you were made to be rich, successful, at ease, and have perfect teeth just like him. So come on and start claiming everything you ever wanted. Don't worry about the cost, God has already taken care of that. Just start living!
Aside from Osteen's complete lack of Biblical knowledge, fake smile, and his canned repeat sermons there is something far more sinister about his message. It's like we've heard this before somewhere. Can't quite place it? Let me point it out...
Genesis 3:1-5:
Now the serpent was more crafty than any other beast of the field that the LORD God had made.
He said to the woman, "Did God actually say, 'You shall not eat of any tree in the garden'?" 2 And the woman said to the serpent, "We may eat of the fruit of the trees in the garden, 3 but God said, 'You shall not eat of the fruit of the tree that is in the midst of the garden, neither shall you touch it, lest you die.' " 4 But the serpent said to the woman, "You will not surely die. 5 For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."
From the beginning, Satan has tricked humanity into believing that they are made for something more than serving God, that we could actually be God.
And he is still doing it today.
The "Best Life Now" brand of Spirituality isn't about God, Jesus, or even being spiritual in the sense of looking for greater purpose or meaning. It is about inflating the ego of sinful people who have no sense of God and therefore attach God to materialistic success.
When the message of Osteen's "Best Life Now" is held up against the Gospel message preached by Jesus, it is found so completely lacking that one wonders if Osteen has ever actually read the Gospels.
Osteen says "God wants to increase you financially, by giving you promotions, fresh ideas, and creativity."
Osteen says "Your best days are ahead of you."
Jesus said "If they hated me, they will hate you" and "blessed are you when you are persecuted" and "take up your cross, deny yourself, and follow me."
Deny Yourself.
Osteen is merely a false prophet cashing in on humanity's longest running delusion. Namely, that we can have the favor of God and still hold on to our sin. Or, to put it another way, we can reject God's standards and still claim to be good people because we are "happy." And, if we are "happy" it must be proof that God is for us.
The major flaw in this thinking is that the proof of what God thinks of us is found in the cross of Jesus Christ. God has already provided your best life now in the cross. The Christian life is not about what material success we achieve in this world, but about what Jesus Christ achieved for us on the cross. This is what makes Osteen's message and those like him so absolutely insidious.
It takes our attention off of Jesus and places it squarely on us. Even if we are trying to be "good people" and do "good things" with our success, we are still focused on ourselves with the incorrect idea that we can somehow be righteous or see proof of God's favor apart from Christ.
Some have described this as "all the blessings of God without the sacrifice" but it is worse than that because the blessings of God have nothing to do with financial and material success. We simply have to stop thinking that because we did the right thing, God is waiting to give us everything we want.
Jesus has told us that to follow him we must carry the cross of self-denial. Stop looking for meaning, happiness, fulfillment, or favor in anything in this world. You must look to the cross and the cross alone.
Quit defining yourself by your own feelings and take on the identity that Christ gives you as a part of His body that has been redeemed by the cross. Stop thinking about your own happiness and start thinking about Christ's sacrifice and what it means to your life.
The truth is that as long as we continue to ignore the truths of scripture in favor of feeling "happy" or "contented" or "fulfilled" we prove that we have not even begun to enter into denying ourselves and carrying a cross. Do you want to rise Above Reality? Then reject the gods of this reality and follow the God of Heaven and Earth. Learn His ways, His values, His Truth, and Trust Him instead of your own feelings. Your life is not about living "Your Best Life Now."
Your life is about moving from Death to Life through the perfect life, sacrificial death, and physical resurrection of Jesus Christ. Stop looking at yourself and start looking to the cross.

Relevant or Subversive?
Cultural Relevance.
This thought has led to thousands of sermons about Paul in the book of Acts preaching on Mars Hill quoting the pagan poets Aratus and Epimenides in Acts 17:28 as proof that Christians need to be connected to the culture in order to spread the Gospel. After all, we must speak a language that the people understand and relate to, right?
On the other hand there are those who will run to Paul's statement to the Corinthians about only knowing Christ and him crucified and nothing else. After all, the Gospel is relevant enough, right?
What if both are right and both wrong because they have missed the point of the Gospel? When the church's focus is on being culturally relevant, this is often the result:
The goal of the church seems to turn into an endless pursuit of trying to impress an unbelieving world by trying to look and act as much like the world as possible.
Instead of discussing the nature of the culture we are in and worrying about being relevant to a culture that neither understands nor worships God, maybe we should start having a discussion about the very nature of the Gospel. What is that nature?
Yes, Subversion. The Gospel is about subverting culture, which requires understanding the nature of the culture we live in, and how the Gospel would change it in light of the death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ and the reality of the coming Kingdom of God.
This is exactly what Jesus, Paul, Peter and every other successful preacher of the Gospel has understood and practiced. Jesus entered a culture and was well acquainted with it. He understood the culture all too well and then taught with statements like "You have heard it said 'love your friend, and hate your enemy.' But I tell you, love your enemy and pray for those who persecute you." Jesus was being culturally relevant by stating a commonly held, popular belief of his day and then he subverted it to God's purposes. He refused to embrace it. In fact, he demolished it in favor of the ways of God.
Paul did the same thing with his sermon on Mars Hill. He wasn't embracing the pagan culture, he used it to demolish the polytheistic culture that grieved him so badly. Sure, the people recognized what he was saying, but it wasn't so that he could feed them something that was already killing them. Rather, it was for the purpose of destroying the foundation of their polytheistic culture in light of the knowledge of the One True God who created Heaven and Earth and sent His Son to die for the sins of the world.
Subversion. It is what we are all about. And yes, it is going to make some people, very, very angry. The Church isn't going to look cool. The Church will be at odds with the world powers just as it has been for almost 2000 years.
Get over it.
If you want to serve God and His Kingdom, you must understand that we are not called to cultural relevance, but to Kingdom Relevance. God's Kingdom that is.
Take for example Jesus' introduction to the sermon on the mount, or really the whole sermon for that point beginning in Matthew 5.
Blessed are the poor in Spirit. Blessed are those who mourn. Blessed are the meek. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness. Blessed are the merciful. Blessed are the Pure in Heart. Blessed are the peacemakers. Blessed are those who are persecuted.
Everything in that list is turning popular concepts in his culture upside down. He is subverting the value system, politics, economics, and philosophies that were prevalent in his day. Sure, it was relevant alright. Why? Because it was (and is) the complete opposite of everything that people naturally pursue, believe, and practice.
Subversion. It is the nature of the Gospel and God's Kingdom.
So what does this have to do with today? Oh, let me count the ways.
1. The Worship wars. Enough already. We live in a culture of consumerism and the more we cater to desires and styles that "speak" to people who are driven by consumerism, the more the Gospel is going to be lost and the Spirit of God ignored. We must, MUST stop worrying about our own entertainment and learn what it means to worship in Spirit and in Truth. That is, Worship GOD. Not fulfill my own desires for a killer praise band, a guitarist that can shred my face off, and a worship set that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy or a worship style that reminds me of what I remember as a child back in the "good ole days." The whole argument about style is nothing more than consumers fighting over what they want. This is not SPIRIT AND TRUTH. Worship is to be subversive to consumerism, selfishness, and personal desires. Worship is about God, not me. If the unbelieving world is comfortable with our worship of God, then I can assure, something is wrong with the way we are worshiping God.
2. The self help craze. 3 Minutes to a better you because every day is Friday during your best life now. Our culture is infatuated with self-improvement, personal appearance, personal peace, and personal prosperity. Guess what, not the Gospel's concern. Jesus did not come to die on the cross so you could have a nice house and be happy according to cultural standards. Yet, we see self-help books line the shelves at Christian stores. Our music is more about our feelings than the power of God or the Gospel truth. Jesus and the Gospel are so subversive to these ideas that many Christians won't even hear it today. Jesus said "Deny Yourself, take up your cross and follow me." He did not say "Come to me and I will make your life work out." The Gospel requires that I get over myself. If my faith is not leading me to become less worried about myself, then I am not serving God, because God will subvert that part of you and me. John the Baptist said it best "He must increase, and I must decrease."
These are just two examples, albeit major ones, in our culture today. The fact of the matter is simple. The Gospel is subversive. The Gospel will make you uncomfortable. God will not tell you everything is okay, if everything is not okay. The Spirit will convict you and make you feel bad about the sin in your life. God is not interested in a person steeped in sin having a good self-esteem.
The Church cannot focus on being culturally relevant while at the same time trying to be subversive. You will be one or the other. If you truly understand the Gospel, then it will lead to reject much of the culture we live in and start living in light of the Truth of God's word. That is, once you can get over yourself.

Stiff Neck?
Hard Headed
Strong Willed
These are words that are used to describe an attitude that refuses to bend to the power of another. There are times when being defiant or immovable is good and there are times that it is bad. Early Christians refusing to bow before the Emperor - Good. Followers of God refusing to listen to scripture - bad.
One is seen as strength the other as weakness. One makes you feel weak when you are not and the other makes you feel strong while you are weak. It is a condition that every human being on the face of the earth will have to deal with at one time or another. We can (and often do) become extremely willful in our lives and turn off all reason in the process.
God often referred to the stubborness of his people as being "stiff-necked" when they would desert their commitment to Him and chase after phantoms of pleasure or power. It was something that would draw the ire of the Most High more than just about any other attitude.
In Psalm 32:8-9 God tells us this:
I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
I will counsel you with my eye upon you.
Be not like a horse or a mule, without understanding,
which must be curbed with bit and bridle,
or it will not stay near you. (ESV)
God understands us and thus, knows that we are going to become willful as He leads us. He warns us against it. Notice the imagery.
Don't be like an unthinking horse or mule. This is what I meant when I said being stubborn and refusing to listen to God's voice in the scriptures can make you feel strong when you are in truth being incredibly weak. For God, (Creator of Everything!) being willful against Him means we have reduced ourselves to the level of creature rather than the pinnacle of creation that displays God's image. When we think we are exercising strength we are really disengaging from what really matters.
Because apart from God, man has no reason for existence. Humanity was created to bring Glory to God by revealing His nature, His love, His wisdom, and His Holiness. When we are defiant, we are refusing the very things that are meant to define us. Without them, Humanity becomes something less than it was intended to be by its Creator.
God does not want to force us to listen or obey. That's what we have to do with mules and horses. We have to force them. God created us for more. Notice the promise of these verses. "I will instruct you and teach yo in the way you should go. I will counsel you with my eye upon you."
God has told you that you aren't in this alone. He wants to walk your journey with you and He promises to equip you for what you need and for where you are going. He says He will keep His eye on you like a father watching carefully as his son learns to handle a power saw or shoot a gun for the first time. His eye is there for protection and guidance into becoming more than you were before.
It is a promise from your Father.
Yet, this is the tragedy of becoming stubborn, hard-hearted, or stiff-necked. We are refusing the help of the Father who loves us. We are refusing the One and ONLY One who can lead us where we need to go. Instead, we tell Him "I got this."
Every time man has said this to God, something very bad has resulted, which leads us to the conclusion of Psalm 32. Verses 10-11 lay it out for us:
Many are the sorrows of the wicked,
but steadfast love surrounds the one who trusts in the LORD.
Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, O righteous,
and shout for joy, all you upright in heart!
It isn't that God decided to make your life miserable because you didn't do what he wanted. Rather, it is the natural state of affairs. When we become stiff-necked, we rebel against all sound judgment. We refuse the hand of the Loving Father and we hurt ourselves, again, and again, and again.
For those who will listen to the Father, bend their will to Him and seek Him, the steadfast, protecting, guiding, watchful love of the Father will be in your life. Its not that you won't make mistakes. It is that the Father will be there to keep you from hurting yourself and stop you before you really do something foolish. His love will protect you from yourself. When we become stubborn we refuse his help. When we are willing to listen, His Love surrounds us and will not need to fear the valley of the shadow of death.

The world's number one competitive eater, Joey Chestnut, has chomped his way into the record books once more by guzzling over nine pounds of shrimp-cocktail in eight minutes.
Some of the world's greediest athletes gathered at The World Famous St. Elmo Shrimp Cocktail-Eating Championships in Indianapolis yesterday to see who could devour the largest amount of the fiery dish.
Chestnut absolutely slashed all over the previous record of 4lb 15oz eaten in 12 minutes which was set by Erik "The Red" Denmark. The world's greatest gurgitator managed to jam an alarming 9lb 4oz of spicy shrimp-cocktail down his cake-hole in an even shorter amount of time. And he says he might have managed an even greater volume had the horseradish-laden cocktail sauce not been quite so hot.
After picking up first place, the new record title, and $1000 in prize money, Chestnut vowed to return next year to try and break the 10lb mark.

ER: A Family's Emotional Well Being - page 2

- 5Feb 11 by bebbercornI was being precepted by a nurse once who got in the face of a surgeon yelling at her to run a pt straight to the OR, in order to let him kiss his wife goodbye. I'll never forget that courage. You probably did more than you know. God Bless you!
- 4Feb 12 by uRNmywayQuote from AMS7958Oh my. Brought tears to my eyes. What a beautiful thing you've done. Seems like so often on AN, we see the opposite thing said, but you, my friend, I would be honored to have care for me or mine.
The nurses took report on both patients and prepared the trauma bays for a couple in their 80's who had been T-boned when the husband pulled into an intersection. No current life threatening emergencies were reported. Each patient was assessed and stabilized. A recurring theme was each spouse asking about the other spouse.
After the hustle and bustled settled down we reassured each patient that their spouse was fine. We opened the curtain separating their rooms and informed them that they were right beside each other and they could talk to one another. They could not see one another because they were secured to backboards and unable to turn their heads to the side but they could hear one another. The wife wanted me to know her husband had a blood pressure problem oh dear she couldn't remember the name of the medicine he was on. The husband told me how they had been married for 60 years and I could see the sparkle of love in his eyes.
As time went on and test results returned it was decided that the wife had an injury that required her to be shipped to a Level 1 trauma center. The doctor informed the couple of the care decisions he felt were necessary. I began to see fear and worry in the husband's eyes. That is when I jumped into gear of getting the portable heart monitor. I connected the husband to the monitor and moved his IV pole and bed right beside his wife's bed. I put his left bed rail down and her right bed rail down. I told them that if they just reached out they would be able to feel each other's hands. They reached out and found each other's hands and held on tight.
They talked and reassured each other it would all be okay. They told each other they loved them. The husband told her as soon as he could find someone to drive him to the other hospital he would be there. The doctor told the wife it would be best if her husband stayed all night for just one night to be observed and make sure he was okay. The husband didn't want to but the wife encouraged him that he could see her tomorrow.
The helicopter crew came and the beds had to be separated after a final hand squeeze and I love you. The Mrs. was loaded and transported to the other hospital while the husband was admitted for overnight observation.
The next day I came to work I found out the wife had died that night from her injuries. I was heartbroken for this lovely couple. As I reflected, I was so thankful that I had taken the time to connect the portable equipment and rearrange the beds and allow them to hold hands.
Many times we are too rushed in the ER to make time for the important things in life. And what was more important at this point in time? To hold hands for the very last time...
- 2Feb 12 by jalyc RNQuote from bebbercornNew nurses on here are always asking older ones for advice. The OP and your post are great for letting them know to trust their own instincts and stand up for their patients in those times when no one else does. Even the hardest of doctors, etc will probably soften with the aftermath of these actions.I was being precepted by a nurse once who got in the face of a surgeon yelling at her to run a pt straight to the OR, in order to let him kiss his wife goodbye. I'll never forget that courage. You probably did more than you know. God Bless you!
- 4Feb 12 by jrbl77How wonderful this couple was able to have this last time together! You where very thoughtful.
- 0Feb 12 by stargirl018oh so touching and inspirational. Thank you for sharing!
- 0Feb 14 by DangerousI am so proud of nurses. God bless you for your caring hearts. God bless you also on those days when you are so overwhelmed you cannot get to do the "extras" you want to do.
You have touched my heart -- another caring nurse who gives my former profession a beautiful name.
Last week an interview was featured on Here and Now -- "Nurses Make Profound Connection With Family In Iran"
Here and Now on National Public Radio had a story about a Marquette, MI hospital where ICU staff cared for a dying injured female & her family in the Middle East.

In an age of "in lieu of flowers" we shouldn't forget the power of flowers for a grieving family. Especially this time of year, the sensory impact of live flowers can actually add a healing element to the memorial service. With cremation and the trend of simplicity in funeral services the floral aspect is often overlooked.
Wreaths are an excellent choice for a ceremony where the cremation urn will be present or families that plan to spread the ashes. Flowers can soften a metal urn and add to the beauty of natural marble or wood.
Don't be afraid of bright splashes of color. This bold design uses inexpensive daisies to create a photo memorial tribute.
Instead of one large casket piece, consider breaking the arrangement up into smaller groupings.

Error 1325: Can't Uninstall/Install Old Lotus Software
I have a fresh install of Win7 Pro 32 bit and all my software (including Office 2007) is installed and working well except for one, and it's driving me crazy. I have a need to use Lotus 123 to access some old spreadsheet files on a regular basis so I installed that portion of the LotusSuite 9.8.2 software. The install appeared to go smoothly but because I was installing lots of stuff, I didn't take the time right then to open the program to make sure it worked.
Earlier today, I tried to open it for the first time and it wouldn't. The screen just blinked at me a couple of times and nothing happened. I tracked down the executable file and tried from there. No dice. I tried to uninstall the program and got an error message: "Error 1325.localimages ... is not a valid short file name". I've tried all this from both the user account and from the admin account (this is not a network machine).
I've researched this as much as I am able and there's not a lot out there about it. Apparently Error 1325 is not necessarily related to a file name problem. I've run chkdsk (or the modern equivalent) on the drives in question and there appears to be no problems with file names or corruption.
BTW, this older program doesn't install itself into the "Programs" section of the "C" drive. In this case, it is in a separate folder on a second data drive. I have tried moving the whole thing to the "C" drive and also into the Programs directory of the "C" drive and tried everything from there. No dice, just this same error message.
Interestingly, I installed this same program on my new Win7 Pro laptop a few weeks ago and there have been absolutely no problems, so it shouldn't be a compatibility issue with the software or its age. (This version is stated as being compatible with Win7.)
Anyway, I'm completely stumped by this. Any ideas how I can force an uninstall or diagnose the meaning of the error message?
|My System Specs
|24 May 2012
Okay, I've solved this part of the problem. I used the MS "Fix It" program and it appears to have uninstalled the program. However, the previous installation efforts seem to have resulted in some "Lotus" registry entries that direct things to the non-existent "F" drive. I will start another thread asking for help to fix this.

Cutler deal shakes up first round
USC QB Mark Sanchez becomes hot prospect in wake of big trade
Originally Published: April 2, 2009By Todd McShay | Scouts Inc.
USC QB Mark Sanchez stands to benefit most from the Jay Cutler-to-Chicago deal. The Broncos just traded away their franchise quarterback and Sanchez has the quick release, accuracy and gym-rat mentality that Josh McDaniels looks for in his signal caller. If Denver is targeting the former Trojan as Cutler's eventual replacement, it is in no position to sit back and hope Sanchez falls to pick No. 12. The team would need to take advantage of its newfound ammunition and move up to secure Cutler's long-term successor. I believe Kyle Orton should be nothing more than a bridge-the-gap solution. But McDaniels may completely disagree. Remember, he's been a part of the development process of Tom Brady and Matt Cassel. Right or wrong, McDaniels has to believe he can turn Orton into a similar marvel. So it shouldn't be a surprise if Denver opts to use its two first round picks (12 and 18) on its defensive front-seven and possibly even a stud running back.
Regardless of McDaniels' actual intentions, teams in the market for Sanchez -- or any of the top-three quarterbacks for that matter -- must now consider the Broncos a legitimate competitor.
The threat of Seattle pulling the trigger on Sanchez is fascinating. Of course, St. Louis (pick No. 2) and Kansas City (No. 3) will look to exploit the situation by putting their all-of-a-sudden attractive top-five draft picks up for public auction. The same goes for Cleveland (No. 5), Cincinnati (No. 6) and Oakland (No. 7) should Sanchez last through the first four picks, but Jacksonville at pick No. 8 becomes the next threat.
With that in mind; here's one opinion on how the first round could unfold:
1. Detroit Lions (Record: 0-16): Matthew Stafford, QB, Georgia
2. St. Louis Rams (2-14): Jason Smith, OT, Baylor
3. Kansas City Chiefs (2-14): Aaron Curry, LB, Wake Forest
4. Seattle Seahawks (4-12): Eugene Monroe, OT, Virginia
5. Cleveland Browns (4-12): Brian Orakpo, DE/OLB, Texas
6. Cincinnati Bengals (4-11-1): Andre Smith, OT, Alabama
7. Oakland Raiders (5-11): Jeremy Maclin, WR, Missouri
8. Jacksonville Jaguars (5-11): Michael Crabtree, WR, Texas Tech
9. Green Bay Packers (6-10): B.J. Raji, DT, Boston College
10. San Francisco 49ers (7-9): Aaron Maybin, DE, Penn State
11. Buffalo Bills (7-9): Everette Brown, DE, Florida State
12. Denver Broncos (8-8): Mark Sanchez, QB, USC
13. Washington Redskins (8-8): Robert Ayers, DE, Tennessee
14. New Orleans Saints (8-8): Chris "Beanie" Wells, RB, Ohio State
15. Houston Texans (8-8): Malcolm Jenkins, CB, Ohio State
16. San Diego Chargers (8-8): Michael Oher, OT, MississippiFor complete first-round projection, including what the Broncos do with the first-round pick they received from the Bears, become an Insider today.

Diet Coke® Introduces New Limited-Edition Taylor Swift Can Design
In a nod to Taylor Swift's inspirational sayings and award-winning lyrics, Diet Coke has created a collector's edition can in celebration of extraordinary individuals across the country. The limited-time Diet Coke® Taylor Swift can 6-pack will be on beverage aisles nationwide in October and November, and is sure to catch the eye of people who enjoy Diet Coke every day to stay on their "A" game.
Seven-time Grammy-winner Swift is known for always staying true to herself, whether in the recording studio, on the red carpet or performing on stage, and her extraordinary individuality serves as the inspiration behind the collector's edition Diet Coke can. Each 12 oz. can is adorned in hand-written style with one of her most popular sayings: "If you're lucky enough to be different, don't ever change."
"The Taylor Swift collector's edition Diet Coke can is a way for us to celebrate the individuality and creativity that inspires people to achieve their dreams and be anything but ordinary," said Lauren Radow, associate brand manager, Diet Coke, Coca-Cola North America. "Taylor's message is simply extraordinary. We couldn't have said it better ourselves."
The collector's edition is the latest evolution in Diet Coke's multi-year partnership with Swift as the centerpiece of the brand's iconic Stay Extraordinary platform. Brought to life by San Francisco-based agency Turner Duckworth, the bold design features Swift's popular quote handwritten in Diet Coke red along with the singer's logo, which wraps the 12-ounce can. While the look has changed, the taste remains the same and the can will still be easy to recognize as the number two beverage brand and number one zero-calorie brand in the nation.In-store and point-of-sale advertising inspired by Swift also will support the launch of the new can. In addition, visitors to MyCokeRewards.com can redeem "double points" from their collector's edition 6-packs for exclusive access to Taylor Swift prizes, gear and insider information about the extraordinary global superstar.

As the waters in St. John Parish slowly recede, those living in the flooded parish are attempting to pick up the pieces of their lives, many of them realizing that will mean starting from scratch. The stories down the line at the Loads of Hope mobile washing station all have a similar ring.
"Here we are, we lost everything, but we know that this too shall pass, we're going to be ok," Karen Robinson Tejada, a LaPlace resident who lost everything, said.
"I need these clothes washed. This is all I have. Everything is mildewed so this is it," Mary Kay Johnson, another LaPlace resident, explained.
Many were forced to leave their homes with nothing as the water, which had never reached their houses before, came up.

MANHATTAN — Those expecting to see much-ballyhooed transfer Bryce Brown run the football 25-plus times were probably disappointed last Saturday.
As it turned out, Kansas State's Purple-White game at Bill Snyder Family Stadium in Manhattan was about finding out more about the Wildcats' passing game.
It's safe to say that either Brown, a 2009 Wichita East High School and sophomore transfer from the University of Tennessee, or sophomore John Hubert will win the first-string running back position.
Let's go ahead and make Brown the No. 1 back, according to this scribe.
"We really didn't run the ball ...

We use this slick little table as a 'sign-in' station at our facility. Small footprint, nice weight, modern look.
This table is exactly as pictured. Just make sure you double-check the dimensions when you buy - it's shorter and smaller than most console tables, which is why I bought it for our small entry way. I also like that the silver brightens up the dark space. Only reason this got four stars instead of five is because to build it you have to screw directly into particle board, which doesn't seem like the most durable construction process ever. But I don't intend to be putting anything too heavy on this table so I don't think it'll be a problem. Otherwise it's sturdy and a good, solid weight.
For what I needed it for, it was perfect! Easy to put together. Took less then 5 minutes!
Was searching for a shallow console for my flat screen tv. All consoles were too long. This console was exactly the same size as my flat screen tv base as well as the same size as the depth of the base. It's about $@#%.*( less than the single pole mounts for display monitors over 65" wide. So if I end up installing my flat screen on the wall, I'm not out a lot of cash. It was perfect!
My family room is very contemporary/mod and rather small by today's standards. I have a modern, small leather sectional in the room. The back of sectional is only 28" high. I needed a small console/sofa table to fit behind the sectional. Most console tables are 30 to 32 inches tall and way too long. I found this table on other websites for one and half times the price. Was pleased to find it on overstock. I purchased two of them to sit behind the sectional in my family room. They are perfect! Absolutely true to size--27-1/2 inches tall--so it doesn't show over the back of the sectional. The base is weighted and very heavy--this table isn't going anywhere. It definitely fits in my contemporary family room. The tables were very easy to assemble, and they were packaged carefully to avoid scratching. Buy this before they're gone!
