Deep Thoughts, Simple Words... (warning, long post ahead. but its worth it)

This is a very short conversation that was had on one of our comment deals. I thought it was worth putting out there for discussion.

As a principle we don't argue about why we believe something. Nor do we claim that we're "religious"...we're just two people who were drowning in our own goodness and yet still so unhappy... all I will say is this: when you really encounter our Creator and our Savior like we have then we absolutely have no other desire in life then to surrender everything we have not to our faith but to the Living Savior Jesus Christ.

My good works are not enough to give me what I need. It's only by God's good heart that while I was lost at just the right time He rescued me!

I pray he would rock your world!

Thanks for the comment we appreciate your question and invite you to continue checking our blog as maybe we can help answer your questions with future blogs.

I will leave you with this question: can you give something to someone if they refuse to receive it?

So I want to know what you think. Here's the deal, though. I don't want to know why you think Mike is wrong and thefamilytullos is right or vice versa. I'd just like to know what people who read this blog really think.

I read 1 Timothy 1:3-7 this morning and its pretty deep when you break it down, but there is one thought in there that gave me the idea for this post. When it comes to thinking and such about "religious" ideas there is a right way and a wrong way. Wrongly, heretical thinkers are moved by arrogance for what "they know" instead of humility in what "they think." Rightly, Christian thinkers thoughts are motivated by love. They think and "argue" in love and grace. They argue not to defeat the opposition, but to win that opponent over in love. So, YES, I am saying that it is possible for "Christians" to think and act "herretically"(don't know if thats a word). So, if you do post, please post out of love not out of arrogance.

Sorry I went so deep so early...

By the way, this is my answer to Mikes question...
My BEAUTIFUL son, Whitaker...

The beautiful sunrise that happens everyday...

My buddy, Hannon, who ALWAYS looks this cute. He carries his guitar with him to church because if he plays it just right he can always get his grandma to sing! He'll bust it out and start playing and then look at his grandmother and say, "Sing for me Big Mama, sing!" How could you not sing if you were Big Mama?

My answer to Mikes question is that there is no way that my hard work or intelligence could have come up with anything close to these things pictured above. So, no I don't deserve any credit only because I HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING!!!

Changes, Changes, Changes...

Hola. No pictures for this one, but just wanted to make everyone and anyone aware that there have been some changes to thefamilytullos.blogspot.com

I decided to to remove some of the links I've had on the "Our People" section. Its nothing personal, but I just got bored waiting on new posts. If youve noticed your link missing then that means that you suck at blogging (KAYCEE SMITH!!!!) Just joking, but seriously...

After cutting back the slackers, I decided to add some frequent commentors. So it just goes to show you that you always reap what you sow!

So, if you get a chance check out Crystals Aunt, Susan Packard and one of our incredible Pathfinders and HPC servants, Amanda Graeser. Now listen ladies... the pressure is on and the world is reading. Hope you did your finger workouts today! Get to typing.

Late.

Full of Poo

now thats a lot of poo...

i emptied whitakers diaper genie last night and then caught a quick workout with what i removed! i didnt have a scale to weigh it on, but i would estimate at least 16-23 lbs. seriously... stacked up and standing up on end it was like 2.5 ft tall. seriously...

now youre probably wondering why we spent so much time handeling this bag of poo. in real time it was about 2 minutes b/c the stink was unbearable. its amazing that something so foul smelling can come from something so sweet. truly a miracle of the lord!

anyway, hope you had a quick laugh today and on a lighter note, whitakers grammy will be here this afternoon for a few days! check back for pics...
