I should probably spend more time with my grandpa :( I think this should happen for everyone.
The grandpa just wanted time to spend with his grandchildren, son, and daughter. He loved seeing them all, but in the end none of them really took the time out of their own schedules to spend time with him. That feeling of pain and loneliness lead him to commit suicide. I feel like the ending is kind of over-dramatic due to the suicide, but the point is that you don’t have long to spend time with the grandparents that so dearly love you. They may be gone tomorrow. You never know. I want to challenge myself to call my grandpa more to see how he’s doing every once in a while. After all, he did take care of me as a little toddler when my parents were working. :/
Even in the most difficult of times, you are still mine. -God
I’m reminded that I’m not a slave to sin any longer, that I’m instead alive in Christ. My life is in You Lord my strength, is in You Lord my hope. Learning to praise God when you’re ashamed of your failures must be a learned skill. Like all skills, they require discipline, so no matter what tells me to run away, I’m gonna fight the urge and praise God in the storm!
An innovative initiative is taking place in the Philippines to bring sustainable lighting to homes in impoverished communities. Empty plastic bottles are installed in the roof, filled with water and bleach they refract sunlight. These “solar light bulbs” provide light equivalent to a 55watt light bulb.
See how they’re made here. From Visual News
Damn that’s awesome.
