My Apologies

Posted by Melody Calhoun on Wednesday, February 25, 2009,

To my dismay, I am unable at this time to be updating my blog on a regular basis. This is due to a virus that ate into my computer, and I no longer have internet access at my place of residence. The Lord has us going through many tough trials at this time. All of you who are my brothers and sisters in Christ, please continue to pray for us. Thank you for your devotion unto the Lord! May He bless you in your walk with Him.

I will try to post new things as I can. Again, I apologize for this to...

His Truth, His Light

Posted by Melody Calhoun on Friday, February 13, 2009,

This then is the message which we have heard of Him, and declare unto you, that God IS Light, and in Him is no darkness at all.
If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the Truth:

If we confess our sins, He IS faithful and...

Forsake all to Follow Him

Posted by Melody Calhoun on Sunday, February 1, 2009,

When I was younger, I used to believe the phrase that "blood was thicker than water". This was implying that those in a family should remain loyal to one another without betrayal. Yet as I grew, I realized more and more that myself, my siblings, and our parents and were merely humans, and we were incapable of holding true to such grandiose allegience.

Obviously, I love to write. Words have always been intriguing to me, especially when they are eloquently put together to convey to others one's personality, as well as their veiwpoint on life all around them. I believe that writing is very theraputical, as you get to put some order to the thoughts that crowd our minds and lay heavy on our hearts. As a Christian who wants all that I write to be pleasing and acceptable unto the Lord, my works become even more than that, because I know that He has purposes I cannot even perceive or comprehend in all things done for Him. Other than writing, I like to spend time with my family. We're an odd little bunch! and we like to have fun together. Unfortunately, just like all other families, we don't always get along, but the Lord IS gracious and reminds us all of the Love He gives us to share. Hmmm,,, I love chocolate cocoanut bars; fish and chicken are my favorite foods; purple and green interwoven into and out of one another are my preffered colors; I have always felt blessed by the ministry that God has given Billy Graham; music is essential, and Jeremy Camp is my favorite Christian artist; I love Ansal Adams photography; and I absolutely Love the writings of Paul in the New Testament. Other than that, I'm pretty mellow. Smile,,, at least sometimes.
