Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem!
Praise your God, O Zion . . .
He sends out his command to the earth;
his word runs swiftly.
He gives snow like wool; he scatters hoarfrost like ashes.
He hurls down his crystals of ice like crumbs;
who can stand before his cold?
He sends out his word, and melts them;
he makes his wind blow and the waters flow.
(Psalm 147:12-18 ESV)

Randy Alcorn’s book, The Treasure Principle
• God owns everything. I am his money manager.
• My heart always goes where I put God’s money.
• Heaven, not earth is my home.
• I should live for the line (eternity), not the dot
(short life on earth).
• Giving is the only antidote to materialism.
• God prospers me not to raise my standard of living, but to raise my standard of giving.

I stopped by yesterday to say congrats, but got so caught up enjoying your links that I forgot to leave a comment!
Anyway . . . "congrats" and "hi!"
Jubilee: Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the links. :~D
The chart showing different attitudes was interesting. The society I live in is definitely Egalitarian Left. Interestingly many of the people in this society would see people following a Biblical model as being Domineering Right because of preconceptions. (E.g. if the husband is the leader then the woman must be a doormat.) Also I think we get almost brainwashed by the type of society we live in so we lose the ability to see other lifestyles objectively.
Buffy: Thanks for your feedback. I agree with you. People tend think they're in the "center" of an issue, when in fact they lean to the right or left. It's difficult to be truly objective, which is why I found the chart so illuminating. :~D
