Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

Biblically Inspired Gifts Make For A Thoughtful Gesture

By Eleanor Thompson


The Bible says that every gift comes from above. An incredibly thoughtful gesture is to give a loved one Biblically inspired gifts, no matter what the occasion. They make a wonderful wedding present for friends who have just got married. There is no better way to show your love.

Biblically inspired gifts are something out of the ordinary, a break from traditional giving. Blessing a loved one or friend a cross or a daily devotional bible will mean so much to them. Calendars are available with daily messages of faith, hope or love verses.

Any present given from the heart is unique in its own way, however making the word of God the focus of a gift is incredibly special. Most people appreciate what has clearly carefully been thought out and chosen with love. You can never go wrong if you follow your heart.

Scriptures are always an excellent choice. These can be embossed on a beautiful quilt or printed and framed. Making a present personal is very special to any individual. Any item with the word of God is a blessing.

Jewish children take part in a festival at a certain age in their lives. When boys are thirteen they have come of age. The coming of age for girls happens at aged twelve. Giving a gift which speaks of Jewish tradition is a wonderful idea for such an exceptional occasion.

One of the best times in the life of a mother and father is having their child baptized. The most beautiful presents are available for baptism ceremonies. These can range from special engraved spoons, cups and bowls to a bracelet in the case of a little girl.

The possibilities are endless when choosing Biblically inspired gifts. No matter the occasion, a gift like this says it all. Your loved ones will be blessed. They will know in their hearts the effort you went to in finding them something exceptional.
