Bigger Bone Syndrome
Good Morning Joes and Janes;
It is a bright and sunny day finally here in the Bitterroot Valley. For some reason I had a really bad night with a headache that just kept waking me up and now I am barely functioning. As I read up on comments to 5 G’s from followers I got to the one from Life of a Female Bible Warrior. I really enjoy her posts and have decided to share her post from yesterday with you. Called Bigger Bone Syndrome, I think it strikes home for most people in the world but especially Americans raised in a consumer society. As for me, I will admit that I can fall into the envy trap easily at some point every day. Boy, I wish I had more time to sit and write like….. oops…there I go again. Well enjoy the article and I will catch up to you tomorrow.
Regular Joe.
I like to reward my dogs with a variety of chewy treats, so I guess some might say that they are a little spoiled. At the cost of these canine delicacies, my animals are certainly being cared for with love. What I’ve noticed when I hand out the treats, though, is that each dog is initially oh-so-grateful and appreciative, but this doesn’t last too long.

Good morning again Guys;
There are several news stories recently that I want to reflect on this morning in the light of scripture. The first is an ongoing story that has been running for about 3 months and the second is about a recent story out of Congress in Washington DC. 
The first news story regards the Occupy Movement which I am sure most of you are tired of hearing about, while the second regards members of Congress who are proposing to cut off Social Security payments to those who are “rich”. These are rich people were required to contribute to the Social Security Program and promised a benefit at the time they retired. By the way rich to some congressional members could be as low as $50,000, (not that any particular cut off point matters.
Both highlight a growing trend in this country that I believe is directly related to a lack of sound Biblical teaching and doctrine. I say this because not only do I hear sympathetic comments to these agendas on the street but even in the Christian community. So what the heck do these two news stories have in common? Lead by voices as high as the President of the United States are people talking against the ‘rich’ or against the ‘middle class’ or against those ‘in poverty’ whatever definition you may use to define those groups.
