"What are YOU thinking?!"

elaine clermont is thinking how lazy we can get on FB and other quick "check in" applications! i just ended a sentence with a preposition after ragging so hard having found an instance of the same in a 6th grade Language textbook!

YIKES!

but perhaps one of these things is not like the other . . .

it goes back to intention.


the ever so important, yet often silent question never asked when one is seeking information on that which is in chaos.

"In the beginning was the Word,
and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God.
The same was in the beginning with God.
All things were made by him;
and without him was not any thing made that was made.
All things were made by him;
and without him was not any thing made that was made.
All things were made by him;
and without him was not any thing made that was made. "
John 1:1-5

but no "why?"
the "why?" is missing.

so, i ask you . . . should we stop teaching them how to write well by using text books that use exemplary language and writing skills? or should we let them teach them that to write well, according to historic context, you must consciously know when and if it is appropriate to end your sentence with a preposition!

live and let die in our wake
or
live and let live on?

god is always about balance. perhaps it is true: that there is a season for all things.

jesus lived and let live once again.

why can't we?

there are no mistakes in the eyes of the most awesome thing you claim to worship, so why are you still accepting the shame?

do you worship an idol without any power or do you follow in his footsteps, with that kind of power?

and that is to answer my "what are you thinking?" question of today.



peace & harmony,
elaine
