Last week made one year that we have not had broadcast or cable TV. We missed a lot. Maybe I should say we were blessed to miss a lot. Though I must confess that I have missed watching TV. For instance I missed the Haiti earthquake. I started asking myself why I kept seeing things about help for Haiti. Then I checked the news, and Wow was I surprised.


Last Friday as I sat in the urgent care I got to watch a few minutes of the Ellen show. Not a show I would have choosen, but it was on, and hey I was there. She was talking about her attempts at "World Domination". I think that is about making the world laugh. Well, she is trying to get her flag put on top of the worlds tallest building in Dubai. After she spoke on the phone with the people who could put her flag on the building, the building got hit by lightening. She even had a picture of the lightening strick. I must say it was an impressive picture. Then she said something like "Well it could be the Lord, but I am not going to say it was. But it was."

Maybe this isn't any different than TV was a year. However I am different, and I am glad that I am different. I found her comments shocking.

So many people claim to be Christians, but don't realize the holiness of God. He isn't a puppet or toy. "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth." Gen 1:1 Shouldn't we as the creation really acknowledge God as our creator?
