I was challenged for the rest of my days.
Its amazing what mustard seed faith can do.
Simple, yet powerful faith.

Sara Imba-reilles
Her music is really fresh, funky and catchy.
Little Voice out in stores everywhere! :)
Of Pizzas and their Toppings
Whee.
I decided that for each day of this week that I won't just give "15" minutes of my time to another person, but a whole hour.
And today,
I treated my Parents' to their 38th Anniversary.
Canadian Pizza. Yum!
Have you done your 15 today?

Music and Cake
In music, there is this thing called a melody; which symbolizes the "catchy tune" in all genres of music that we sing today, as well as a harmony; which the stuff that is NOT the melody. For all you people that don't really read music, the melody is like the icing of a cake, and the harmony is like the rest of the cake (for the lack of a better analogy)
Sometimes we tend to think of ourselves as invidualistic people, people that think for me, myself and I. We tend to think of ourselves as the icing on the cake, the flowery goodness, the primadonna. However, we seem to care less about the ugly, distasteful, although sometimes hard to digest even, rest of the cake. Yes, we may be able to survive alone, but how long can we do so without being miserable? There may be people around us which could potentially make our lives better.
Its time for us to put away those royal glasses and learn to co-operate with others. A house divided against itself will fall, a car without its wheels cannot move, a band without its people cannot function.
Jesus himself was the prime example of an individual that learned to co-operate with others. His life didn't revolve around himself claiming that he was the "high and mighty" Messiah that would laugh at the condemnation of mankind. He personally came down from heaven to die on the cross for our sins, so that we may be saved. Yes, Jesus did struggle with God with regards to his final purpose on earth, but he did co-operate with God. He could have just abandoned the entire idea of being a Saviour and have a holiday on earth, but he didn't. It was hard, but because of that sacrifice, we all can remain connected to God!
The cake itself is called a "cake" because of the combination of the icing, as well as the rest of the cake. The rest of the cake will look ugly without the lovely icing and toppings. Conversely, the icing looks rather pointless without the rest of the cake as substance. Neither can exist without the other.
The melody can stand alone, but it will probably get boring soon enough. The harmony, together with the melody, allows the song to have a dynamic and ever-fresh edge to it.
