Equally Black and White

All colors visible in shining light give the appearance of clear, white light. Think about a prism. The rainbow actually creates bright white light.
All colors visible in paint give the appearance of a thick black color. Picture a paint pallet.
The rainbow actually creates a brown-black blob.

I was once told that Christians view things too "black and white." Your either in or out. Heaven or hell. Right or wrong.

I've watched people view the world as beautiful, hopeful, and unchanging, believing God can make all things new and completely change ugliness to artwork.
Then I've seen those same people start to view the world in such a dim light. Everything seems bleak and hopeless. Satan can use many lies to completely change a mindset. What once appeared bright white, turns dark black.

Do the vantage points change over night? Not usually. It's a slow, steady process of numbing, much like fresh fruit  or bread turning sour or stale. That said, what are we doing now that will ensure our own eternal ripeness? How do we maintain the presence of truth and light? We can't change it for others, because everyone sees a painting differently. But we can control our own response to colors that mix into our lives.

I may believe that there is only one source of true light, but there are beautiful and varying degrees of color throughout that light.

If it's too cold to golf outside, create a box putt putt-point game!

Thank you Dee Dee for our passport renewal. We have moved from continents to countries and made a great Brazilian dessert this week!

Have tried to push this little guy to potty train, but with physical disabilities and other digestive issues, this boy only lasted a couple hours before sitting around in his filth without any concerns.  

He sure liked posing in his "undies" though!

I get asked frequently if these two are twins now. I don't mind though, it opens up great conversations!

Thank you for praying for Levi. He maintained his weight exactly despite the illness setbacks! This means we want to increase in the next month before seeing GI doc. I wish it were as easy as giving him extra ice cream, milkshakes, and buttered bread, but Levi has proven since birth that he will let us know what and how much his little body can handle in a twenty-four period. I'm just thankful he knows himself so well!
