IT'S GETTING COLDER!!!!

Autumn is here! And then Winter!! Glory to God!

a nice and cool 61 degrees at the lovliest little village on the plains, and I can't help but smile

 

[Philothei]

Is there a winter ever in the Western states MR? ...

Does it ever goes down to 0 degrees?

I always thought it is summer or close to it all winter long

 

[Anhelyna]

Seasons of mist and mellow fruitfulness

AND - it's damp , cool and the leaves are fair tumbling off the trees

[Anhelyna]

Hi ! *


*I just wanted to experience how it feels to do a short greeting

My you must have had withdrawal symptoms after that

 

[Michael G]

My you must have had withdrawal symptoms after that

Do you think his hands are quiverring over it?

 

[Anhelyna]

I think that more than his hands are quivering

Spring here! It varies between being cold and mild, and it got to 30*C the other day. I have a cotton dress on rather than my usual winter layers of flannel and wool, but I still had a jacket on for part of the day.

 

[Photini]

The leaves are starting to change colors around here. I like autumn...

The 2 red maples which I planted this summer have yet to change colors!

I'm reading "The Shack" at the request of my mom right now. I gotta say it has some scary theological conclusions in it. I'm sure my protests will be seen by most (that is, non-Orthodox) as "legalistic" and "close minded". So it goes with our culture, God is whoever you want Him to be.

Lord have mercy on us

Oh that book. My dad asked me to read it....oh goodness I dislike that book!

Unfortunately everyone in the circles I grew up in loves it. Ugh.

One friend of my Dad's says that the writer goes to extremes to break people out of legalistic mindsets. That might be true but NO!

 

[Photini]

Ugh! I have a cold. Sore throat, stuffy nose....blech.

Have you read Hymn of Entry by Archimandrite Vasileios? I LOVE that book! It's short, but full of meat to chew. When I read books like it, I realize how theologically far apart the Orthodox are from other churches.

It just reflects back to me how lost people are when it comes to God. They have no foundation, no right teaching in the True Faith. Therefore, these conceptions have to be made (invented) to deal with this lack of grounding in sound Theology. It very much reflects our relativistic culture, which is infiltrating much of protestant Christianity. The emphasis on the self guided search of scripture without proper context (the context of the Orthodox Church) further extends the problem. Delusion is so easy to fall into, may the Lord protect us from it.

Lord have mercy on us
