#300

Today my blog is 300 posts old! I can hardly believe it. There is some pressure to write something meaningful and thought provoking today, but I’ve never been one to succumb to pressure, so I’ll just give you 30 random questions/thoughts I have at any given moment…I could easily do 300 but that may be somewhat overwhelming.

1. What is desire?
2. Am I the person God wants me to be?
3. What am I taking from yesterday into tomorrow?
4. How am I leaving a positive mark here?
5. What is the purpose of the external ear?
6. Why is so much of the good from the past discarded so easily in the quest for more?
7. What is the purpose of a porcupine?
8. Is 50% of God’s creation just for entertainment value?
9. Why are no new Christmas Carols ever written?
10. Do people still Christmas Carol?
11. Why is it easier to celebrate a sports game than it is to celebrate God?
12. What would worship look like if we had no inhibitions?
13. Who am I?
14. Why Brussel Sprouts?
15. Why IS gas so expensive?
16. Why isn’t their an available alternate fuel source yet?
17. Why are we so apathetic about politics?
18. Why do we choose to ignore child abuse?
19. Why are their starving people in OUR country?
20. Do you hear what I hear?
21. How can people NOT believe in God and creation?
22. Why do we (Christians) allow government to strip away the roots of our country?
23. Would I die for my brother/sister?
24. Would I die for Christ?
25. Would I sing for money?
26. Would I go an entire month without speaking?
27. Is it a greater challenge to be deaf or blind?
28. Are there people without a sense of smell?
29. Isn’t it amazing God knows the actual number of grains of sand!
30. Do the angels sing anything contemporary?

I don’t know if I’ll be here for another 300 but this has been a ride I wouldn’t have missed for the world! Thanks for being here with me!

Have a Wednesday full of questions; both answered and unanswered!

wow Kim they are tough and challenging questions!

Shalee said...

I hope you'll be here for another 300. Where else will I find a place that daily makes me think beyond myself and to force me to delve deeper into the heart of God.

Congrats on your first 300!

Kristen said...

Wow!! 300 posts! That's quite the accomplishment! I've enjoyed you, so I hope you're around for another 300....or more! :-)

Good thought provoking questions, too and a great way to celebrate your landmark!

300?! Wow-ee girl! That's good stuff...300 posts full of thought provoking, encouraging, Christ-focused, good-girlfriend-gab, funny, sad, knock-me-over-with-a-feather kind of good stuff!

Tooooootally need you around for another 300...and more and more and more!

congratulations my friend...

Wow, that's a lot of posts!! I can't imagine getting to that point, but in reality I think I'm on my way there.

Have a very Merry Christmas.

Ok - so funny, when reading your questions (far too quickly)I read #15 (and when I read I hear the thing I read in my voice in my head) as Why is gas so expansive? (gross). I like your question better, and I am sure glad you are here. Blessings dear one.

So totally agree with #14. No purpose what so ever. #28-I used to know a girl that had no sense of smell. It affected her sense of taste...everything. It was weird.

Dawn said...

Wow! I can't believe it. How you have 300 posts full of meaning behind you and more ahead, I am sure. I love your mind, as I've said many times! I'm pushing toward 100, and trying to figure out what I'm going to do when I get there.

Hey, if you ever get up here to Colorado again, we MUST meet IRL - you, me, and Kristen. But don't come now! We're in the midst of a real blasting blizzard - the old fashioned kind we haven't had for 4 years. I know you'd hate it! But they closed the university even - miraculous.

Dawn said...

BTW - my dad has lost his sense of smell in his older age, and it is a sad thing to lose. The good news is he no longer can smell garlic, which he has hate a hate relationship with his entire life!

Loved your questions. Now for the answers!
