Personally my emotions were not included in my initial reaction to the picture. And I really didn't delve to deep into it either. <BR/><BR/>I just thought it was a picture that grabs you.<BR/><BR/>I think that is the power of images...they speak a thousand languages and messages.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10577334211297012754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8905807.post-28087883415989065932008-10-17T06:42:00.000-07:002008-10-17T06:42:00.000-07:00Hi Fred :)Please permit me to use your space to an...Hi Fred :)<BR/><BR/>Please permit me to use your space to answer D.L.'s query regarding the photo you have posted.<BR/><BR/>The gorgeous person with the raven hair, sparkling blue eyes and without a blemish on the face looking straight at us as though challenging the burning match stick to burn her mouth.<BR/><BR/>She exibits immense trust, confidence and faith that no harm will be done by the flame. The photo only shows that the match stick is burning harmlessly. Whether her trust will be betrayed, only time will tell. May be a wind will blow and put out the flame.<BR/><BR/>A daring display of courage and trust!<BR/><BR/>I hope this will suffice for an answer and D.L. will be satisfied.<BR/><BR/>Have a good day :)Joseph Pulikotilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07074346261093541776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8905807.post-27831299017578253982008-10-16T19:48:00.000-07:002008-10-16T19:48:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Dianna Woodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13114435985648046259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8905807.post-9314171046890476332008-10-16T18:03:00.000-07:002008-10-16T18:03:00.000-07:00Hi Eric, Glad you like this picture, I see in it a...Hi Eric, <BR/>Glad you like this picture, I see in it a look of mistrust, the match saying - "don't tread on me." <BR/><BR/>Hi Joseph, <BR/>Thanks for your comments and I agree with your conclusion, we must trust. But, that being said, I still find myself rushing trust too quickly. I think I may long for trusting relationships too much, so I jump into them too quickly. Makes the skin a little thicker and I have suffered many losses in my life so I am somewhat used to them.<BR/>God bless. <BR/><BR/><BR/>Hi D.L., <BR/>Thank you for your comments as well, I like the way you lay them out in a practical manner. The rocket science part is the only thing I have reservations about, meaning, our emotional responses are unpredictable, and it complicates the whole affair. But the one quote I didn't put in this piece is the one you imply- "Trust......in the living God." <BR/>He alone is fully trustworthy. <BR/>God bless,<BR/>Fred<BR/><BR/>Hi Mel, <BR/>I'm sure it is a grace of God, and you are blessed indeed. And your recommendation to sort them out with God surely must be the only hope. <BR/>God bless,<BR/>FredFCBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08741867097151481332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8905807.post-50522286151792792272008-10-16T12:10:00.000-07:002008-10-16T12:10:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Dianna Woodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13114435985648046259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8905807.post-1549072857952346362008-10-16T11:00:00.000-07:002008-10-16T11:00:00.000-07:00Great thought-provoking post!

I don't know for absolutely certain if it's by God's grace, or if it's sheer selfish lazy willful stupidity on my part. But honestly, I do believe it's by God's grace. <BR/><BR/>I can totally see the wisdom in what D.L. said, and I think it's full of pracital common sense. And I think everyone of every age, race, creed and gender should spend some honest time pondering these matters and seeking God's leading in sorting through them.Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16516485538999541969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8905807.post-78327517909104819952008-10-16T10:13:00.000-07:002008-10-16T10:13:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Dianna Woodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13114435985648046259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8905807.post-60267572931018402562008-10-15T22:31:00.000-07:002008-10-15T22:31:00.000-07:00Hi Fred :)Every one says trust begets trust; but a...Hi Fred :)<BR/><BR/>Every one says trust begets trust; but all of us have eperienced betrayal of trust at some point in our lives.<BR/><BR/>One of my bosses said: DON'T TRUST ANYBODY INCLUDING ME!<BR/><BR/>I saw a display in a shop which read: I TRUST IN GOD, REST IN CASH!<BR/><BR/>The quote by Samuel Johnson is quite close to the mark.<BR/><BR/>After all that is said and written we have to trust some people inspite of the risks involved.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the illuminating post and the great photo!<BR/><BR/>Have a nice day :)Joseph Pulikotilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07074346261093541776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8905807.post-42819212861032140912008-10-15T22:01:00.000-07:002008-10-15T22:01:00.000-07:00great picgreat picAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10577334211297012754noreply@blogger.com
