February 18 – Good Intentions, Bad Results

If you have sinned in any of these ways, you are guilty. You must give back whatever you stole, or the money you took by extortion, or the security deposit, or the lost property you found, or anything obtained by swearing falsely.

MLKJr Day

OK, so my computer is currently down for a bit. I plan to have it fully up and running tomorrow, but there is no way on God’s green earth that I would be able to do one of my normal posts off my phone. My thumbs are too big. So instead, in honor of Martin…
