Chasing the Wind

News. Faith. Nonsense.

We Didn't Start the Fire

The Billy Joel Song, complete with pictures. 🙂

I think I’m old enough to remember all those, too.

    😛 You were old enough to remember Eisenhower? Yes, it does make me feel old too. M3 was born in 1995. To her, the Vietnam War is something that happend in the dim past (20 years+). Similar to WWII was for us, except WWII ended only 17 years before you and I appeared on the planet. And Jo is even older. 😛

    Isn’t it fun to have older-than-dirt friends to make fun of? 😛

    I didn’t have dirt when I was young. I had to rub two rocks together to make my own dirt.

    So that’s what you called it? No wonder you needed Lasik.

About Me

Michael, a sinner saved by grace, sharing what the good Lord has shared with me.

Solomon, in the book of Ecclesiastes, said, “I have seen all the things that are done under the sun; all of them are meaningless, a chasing after the wind.”

If you’re not living for the glory of God, then what you’re doing is meaningless, no matter what it is. Living for God gives life meaning, and enjoying a “chasing after the wind” is a gift from God. I’m doing what I can to enjoy this gift daily.

Got questions? I’m not surprised. If you have any questions about Chasing the Wind, you can email me at chasingthewind@outlook.com.
