Wed. morning thoughts

4 thoughts, spiritual and virtual:

* Politics being what they are, I'm thankful that salvation comes by other means. Less government, the better. More Christ, the blessing.

* Skip to next item, since these are not subjects of general interest: sleep (not well, unusually), diet (too much pizza), and dreams (I hardly ever remember).

* I had moved away from the Google Feed Reader, as all things Google. Just found Tiny Tiny RSS. Nice! And hosted for me here. Better! But then again, now I have ~Friendica ... So do I have a real use for #tt-rss? Anybody else have ideas or suggestions for using it? The public links seem to be disconnected in parlamentum.net.

* I thought it would be nice to somehow bring together my English translation of the #devotional, Quick Bible Truths, and Believing Prayer in one spot. I did it here as "Devotional Time." People (read: you) can sign up and get it by email, IM, RSS, iPhone. Hmm, what can #Friendica do on this score?

From Thomas, sounds like a deal too good to miss

Thomas Willingham
I offer you all the features of Facebook and more. 

We can connect to over a billion users - more than any other social network in the world.

You retain control over your data.  Real control.  Not pseudo-control where you can hide things from some people sometimes, but then it gets sold to anyone who wants it like Facebook.  Not data that doesn't even get deleted when you ask like Diaspora.  Real control.  Real privacy.

We have groups, forums, and fan pages.

We can talk to each other without being spied on.

If that isn't enough, we even give you an arcade.

Best of all, we've got something no other social network has - an online Amstrad CPC. 

That makes us the spiffiest community in the world.

Get our Daily Bible Devotionals by email

Now you can get our Daily Bible Devotionals by email! Sign up here.

The updated description for our devotionals reads like this: "Devotionals are translated from the Portuguese and sometimes adapted slightly for speakers of English. They emphasize obedience to Christ as Lord, living like God's special people, and participation in his rescue project in the world. The devotionals come several times a week to urge us to live the Word of God daily."

The devotionals bring a cross-cultural perspective, urgently needed today, because we are meeting the world at our doorsteps, in our living rooms, in the workplace. Check out the Devotional Category here on my website.

If you prefer, you can use the RSS feed of the category in several ways:

* Import it into your Friendica account;
* Add it to your RSS or news reader;
* Some email clients, like Thunderbird, will import RSS feeds;

This site explains a lot about how to get RSS feeds in various ways.

As always, if you're a glutton for the whole tamale, you can sign up to get all the website posts by email at the top right column and inserting your email. That includes poetry, audio (songs, radio clips), and video that we post.
