A Poem
God made
Adam bit
Noah arked
Abraham split
Joseph ruled
Jacob fooled
Bush talked
Moses balked
Pharoh plagued
People walked
Sea divided
Tablets guided
Promise landed
Saul freaked
David peeked
Prophets warned
Jesus born
God walked
Love talked
Anger crucified
Hope died
Love rose
Spirit flamed
Word spread
God remained. i'm the someone's sister. hehe

A New Christmas Tradition
One particular Christmas a long time ago, Santa was getting ready for his annual trip... but there were problems everywhere. Four of his elves got sick, and the trainee elves did not produce the toys as fast as the regular ones, so Santa was beginning to feel the pressure of being behind schedule. Then, Mrs. Claus told him that her Mom was coming to visit. This stressed Santa even more.
Then when he went to harness the Reindeer, he found three of them were about to give birth and two had jumped the fence and were out, heaven knows where. More stress.
Then when he began to load the sleigh one of the boards cracked and the toy bag fell to the ground, and scattered the toys. So, frustrated, Santa went back into the house for a cup of coffee and a shot of whiskey.
When he went to the cupboard, he discovered the elves had hid the liquor and there was nothing to drink. In his frustration, he accidentally dropped the coffee pot and it broke into hundreds of little pieces all over the kitchen floor. He went to get the broom and found that mice had eaten the straw it was made from.
Just then, the doorbell rang and Santa cussed his way to the door. He opened the door and there was a little angel with a great big Christmas Tree. The angel said, very cheerfully, "Merry Christmas Santa. Isn't it just a lovely day? I have a beautiful tree for you, Isn't it just a lovely tree? Where would you like me to stick it?"
Thus began the tradition of the little angel on top of the Christmas Tree.

Psalm 118 is between the shortest and longest chapters of the Bible and Psalm 118:8 is the Bible's center verse. "It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in man." (Psalm 118:8)
i read up on this becoz its known as an "urban legend" of the bible...
it was said that there are 594 books before and after Psalm 118 which totals up to 1188 chapters before and after Psalm 118~
and the Center Verse of bible is Psalm 118:8! nice number?
but there are quite awhile other web resources which has proven false to this claim~!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
http://prayerfoundation.org/not_center_verse_of_bible_118_8.htm
it claims both Psalm 118 isnt the center Chapter and Psalm 118:8 isnt the Center Verse~
http://www.snopes.com/religion/center.htm
it claims Psalm 118 is the center chapter but Psalm 188:8 isnt the center verse~
interesting thing isnt it???
