My febrific oneI sit here in the cool darkness of night, The rain forlornly tap-tap-tapping on my roof. The glow of the screen bathes my room in blue, And shadows writhe upon my wall.My febrific one
I shiver against the chill of the encroaching air and I pull my gown closer. My eyelids droop, My attention fades, My body succumbs to weariness.
And, alas! I see you there, lying upon my bed, with your beaming countenance.
You have been waiting there for me, with nary a word nor a whisper. Waiting, preparing, as if your only aspiration is to cheer me.
So I lea

St. Valentine of RomeSt. Valentine was a priest in Rome in 269 A.D. The Roman world was not yet Christian, and some Christians were being martyred for their faith. Valentine was captured by Roman officials and brought before Emperor Claudius II himself. Claudius tried to convince Valentine to worship the pagan gods of the Romans to save himself, but Valentine refused. Instead, Valentine tried to convert Claudius to Christianity. Valentine was sent back to his cell and ordered to be killed. Just before he was going to be led out to his execution, he miraculously healed the blind jailor's daughter. He was then martyred on February 14th.St. Valentine of Rome

Justification by works?"What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him?" (James 2:14, NIV)Justification by works?
I think that in the next couple of verses James answers his own question quite clearly. It is an emphatic no.
"What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to him, "Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed," but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.

God used astrologyI'm sure that (hopefully) everyone knows the Christmas story. The part that I am going to be focusing on however is the magi that came along.God used astrology
Current thought is that these magi were Zoroastrian, which was the prevailing religion of that region. Zoroastrian practitioners looked to the stars to find out events, the future etc.
Knowing this, there must have been something quite magnificent in the sky to make them journey across desert. Current astronomers have calculated the night sky as it appeared from between 10 BC to 0 AD/BC and a few spectacular things in the night sky occurred.

This ChickShe’s just this chick you barely know, This chick who barely shows, What’s on her mind, Most of the time, This chick you barely know, She cannot let you go, Without a fight, Again tonight, This chick’s almost your foe, But don’t let her sink too low, And don’t you dare, Pretend to care, This chick will surely show, You just where you can go, If you quench dreams, Or silence screams, This chick will be your woe, And still you barely know, What’s on her mind, Most of the time, Because she’s jThis Chick

You'll Keep PlayingYou lock yourself up in your room, And keep the world away, Yet there’s so much more outside your door, But you keep the world at bay.You'll Keep Playing
You clutter it up with material objects, Yet the world is free with beauty, And meaningless games consume your days, Like it’s some sort of duty.
Your games they go on as the days are marked off, The world shan’t wait for you, This earth will keep turning as the years you keep burning, But still, your game is not through.
Now there’s no time for sleep or for family or friends, And slowly they&

If the substances/forces and causes of boredom, imagination, and passion were to be put together in the form of art... well, lets just say if Art was the question, this would be an answer worth being part of.
