What is Blasphemy?
I have to post about this. My daughter came to me with eyes overflowing with tears, and showed me this website this afternoon. We just sat in shocked horror and disbelief. Satan has attempted to capture the minds of the youth of a generation - and this is one of the most devious, and heart wrenching tactics yet. Check it out if you dare - it is horrifying to think that there are people out there who spend the very breath God gave them to blaspheme His name, but worse to encourage others - the total videos posted thus far range around 150,000 - to do the same. There was one personal "blasphemy" video where the credits rolled at the end thanking those who had contributed to his "enlightenment" - and the last name that slowly scrolled up the list was "my dad". As a mother this makes my heart skip a beat. Did this dad contribute to this young man's position by sharing his own atheistic viewpoint, or was it because he lived a life of hypocritical Christianity? We are all hypocrites at times - and it is difficult for us to lead anyone in our fallen state to the only One who was perfect - but let's not cut ourselves too much slack here. WHAT are our children seeing in our lives? Religion or relationship? Are we showing them even in our failings how Christ redeems us daily? How can we as parents keep from turning our children away from our Lord? I have an uncle that I love dearly who is the father of eight children - one in heaven since infancy - and six out of the other seven that want nothing to do with God or church - which to them is synonymous. They saw organized religion as a system set up to hold them in restrictive confines. My mind is reeling. And what is blasphemy anyway? Is it word or deed? Maybe it is a combination of both. Pray, not only for this generation that the enemy would love to pervert, but also for each of us as parents, that our lives would draw our children TO Christ and not away from Him.
Love and blessings! ~ ? Julie ? ~

This is a place where I post what I am learning about home-making and homesteading. I may decide to merge my two blogs. The other one is Jewls2texas on Homeschoolblogger. Let's just see how this goes.
Currently this blog mirrors my blog on HSB1 - we'll see how it progresses and develops over time! Welcome! Hope you enjoy our visit!

My husband Travis and I have been together for 18 years. He is an electrician and the most creative, resourceful person that I have ever known. He is my BEST friend.

My 15 year old daughter Kendra is in 10th grade. She is currently very invested in fund raising for a mission trip she wants to take with Global Expeditions to France & Italy in the summer of 07.

My 8th grade daughter, Kaitlyn is 13 years old. She is homesick for West Virginia - but looking for exciting new adventures as a family here in TX.

Kullen is my 9 year old son. He keeps the family on our toes. He has a very loving heart, and always makes us laugh! He enjoys playing his guitar.
