scary stuff

Have you seen the new show on Tuesday nights called FRINGE? As in fringe science? I was going to post the meaning of fringe science but figured most of you already know what it means (unlike me, I am in la-la land half the time, so knowing the latest and greatest is so far from being true for me). I don't even want to research it due to the fact that I am shaking right now, and my heart is racing with fear as I write this.

Anyway, my point is this. It is SCARY. Only one word needed to describe this sort of science. SCARY, SCARY, SCARY. I am not scared of the show, I am more scared of the fact that fringe science is very real and is happening somewhere in this world, this very moment.

Sidebar - Mike and I have been contemplating trying for a third baby soon after Cole turns one year, but after the realization of how horrible and frightening this world is turning into, I hate to bring any other innocent human being into it. I will admit, openly, that I am wrong about "not wanting to bring other children" into this place. I need to lean on God's promises to us as Christians. I have been looking for some scripture to help me through this, as I am really terrified. Perhaps you are reading this thinking that I am going a little overboard, but I can tell you with my heart and soul, that I have not been this terrified in quite some time. I know we are to multiply and replenish the earth, but why am I more scared of what this world might do to our children versus what God has promised to them as a Christian? (that is if/when they accept Christ as their personal savior. I say "if" b/c even though Mike and I have vowed to raise our children in a Godly home and bring them up in the ways of the Lord, it is still their decision...this is an entirely different subject so let me move on to what I was originally saying).

I am scared and can't shake this. If you have any scriptures at your fingertips, please send them my way. I have to head to bed, but want to pick this up again tomorrow.

Good Night to you all...

Hi sweetie, don't be afraid. Here is some Scripture to help you with that fear:

2 Corinthians 7:1 Since we have these promises, dear friends, let us purify
ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting
holiness out of reverence for God.

James 2:19 You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that--and shudder.

1 John 4:16 And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him.

Love you babe
