It’s not Friday yet, but I’m not sure what tomorrow holds….so thank you Tammers for doing this….
She’s all I can think about right now 🙂
Man, one of the craziest things happened to my brother last Sunday, and that’s pretty much all I have had time to write about this week, plus I am still new to all this blog stuff. Anyway, you can read about it by following the link (obviously) and then pray for my bro because HE NEEDS JESUS!!!

Oh and the one thing I would change? Your crazy blogroll – DANG! Either get me on there or shorten that puppy. 🙂
My favorite post was Wednesday’s: http://gitzengirl.blogspot.com/2009/05/his-plans.html
I didn’t realize until after I wrote it that it was my 365th day of blogging. Kinda can’t believe a whole year has gone by already.
As for changing the world? I’d like for people to think first of love before they judge. The fact that anger and judgment is the first impulse of so many wears me out.
umm… did my comment go to spam or just disappear?
Since I seem to have reduced myself to only 1 (maybe 2) non-cheat posts per week, this is at least an easy choice.

(btw…the embedded map won’t centre in the right position…so if you care, click and drag to to the right and down, and you’ll eventually find the “A” tag showing where we were…)
Uh…I meant to say “to the right and UP”.
It’s easily confused with down you know…
I forgot to answer the question too…
If I could change one thing about the world…I’d make sure Eve stomped on the snake’s head rather than listening to it 🙂
Here’s one of my favorite ones this week http://lifespokinatcha.wordpress.com/2009/05/25/you-never-know-what-you-might-hear/
Irresponsible parents!
we so hot.

Enjoy.
im just gettin to all these fab posts and noticed your link isnt working =(
New poem:

What would I change? Serve dessert first.
Wow..
I think yesterday’s was way cool. (but you have already read it)
Here’s my choice http://allm92.wordpress.com/2009/05/25/door-dilemma/
I wish I didn’t have to pump gas.
move to Oregon and that little chore will become a thing of the past!
Trust me I would move to Oregon in a HEARTBEAT, I was born and raised there. I actually at the age of 16, was a pump girl at a Texaco in Beaverton. Man I miss Oregon, but God has me here for the moment in San Diego building a church campus.
Ok.. so no one has read the post that I am going to pimp because I just wrote it. 😉
But I think it brings a serious question to light and would love to see what people think about it.
And if I were to change one thing about this world….
“I’d put da debil inna box and troe away da key”
haha! that made me smile!

This is the only post I had for the week, so I guess this qualifies!

The Headers for Honduras project has been a smashing success, I’ve designed more than a handful of headers for some wonderful bloggers over the last 2 days.
I originally started with a desire to do 10 headers at $20 a pop (all proceeds going to our ministry trip to Honduras). I got 10 people within the first day, but not all of them have followed through.
I still have time do about 5 more if you’d like to donate and get a sweet blog header in the process.

Thanks for allowing the community to share a little slice of their lives, Tam! And thanks to anyone who skips on over to russhutto.com and contributes to the Kingdom!
Today’s my 10th anniversary. I wrote about it here: http://www.givinguponperfect.com/2009/05/i-do.html.
And if you need more, you can go to the post before and see many pictures of us. Because that’s probably what you need on this lovely Friday, right? Pictures of me? 🙂
I forgot to answer your question! If I could change one thing about this world, it would be that everyone knows and loves God.
And also (because I am incapable of “one thing” answers), I’d like it to be between 60 and 80 degrees at least 75% of the year.
Well, I have started my series on spiritual gifts, per the coversation that ensued on your ‘parts’ post.
A story and an illustration here:http://callingtodeep.blogspot.com/2009/05/story.html
and ….
… the vision here: http://callingtodeep.blogspot.com/2009/05/vision.html
Oh oops. change about the world.
well, I’m quite literal, so I’ll say ‘nothing.’ God’s wisdom ordained and designed it, and His wisdom sustains it, so I think in all it’s tainted glory, it is doing exactly what it was purposed to do.
but … how would I impact the people of the world … if I could show them how beautiful and lovely and marvelous God really is … more people would love Him. So many people are angry with Him. So I’d like to have a part in changing their minds.
My first post out of “retirement” deals with my struggle to feel adequate: http://givemejesus-rick.blogspot.com/2009/05/will-i-ever-be-enough.html
I would change the world simply by letting the light of Christ shine more brightly through me rather than being such a dim bulb!
Hmmmm…..my comments seem to be getting lost in space somewhere.
ok…well that one worked but not the one where I post my blog link….inter-resting!
Ok…well, it’s the blog post titled “Will I Ever Be Enough”….first one written since coming out of “retirement”.
(can’t wait to come back and read this.)
here’s mine:

and if i could change one thing about the world…
i would get rid of both roaches and mosquitos.
hey!!!! that’s two things missy..!!! let’s not be hogging all the changes going on in this here world.
by the way.. I still laugh thinking about you running away from a few mosquitoes and the dog chasing you.
hahaha! it counts. that’s the one thing i would change. destroy the vermon.
i laughed to myself about that the other day, too.
In line with Heidi’s post yesterday about imperfections, I posted a video today of Lee Heeh-ah, born with only two fingers on each hand, and no legs below her knees. She did not allow these “imperfections” to keep her from her dream. She has become a concert pianist, and travels the world demonstrating her skill.
I’ll pick two ways I would like to see the world change.
1)Everyone who intentionally harms another person explodes.
2)All the guns in the world turn into whipped cream pies.
i second your changes!
#1 would be VERY messy.
it would be messy. but id be so focused on eating whipped cream pies i wouldnt notice.
yes. selfish.
😀
mmm. piiiie.
Joy it would only be messy for the first people it happens to. After that I think the rest of us would get the message.
We would have to change some of the rules for sports like football. The referess would need any penalty flags, just a mop and bucket. 🙂
Here we go….quiet week for me due to travel and all.
Anyway…here is a little something from Chicago
http://movingthroughlife.wordpress.com/2009/05/29/da-post-about-da-reality/
This is one of the most exciting, mind-blowing posts that you’ll read in a very long time. Quick, go immediately and check it out!

Well, that may be overly exaggerated. Maybe I should just say the pictures are kinda cute. That’s all I got.
Oh, and to answer your question… if I could change one thing about the world, there wouldn’t be any mean people. Especially my next door neighbor.
Hi Tam!
It’s not really new, but it’s my only post this week. I haven’t been posting in my blog as I used to. 😦
Here’s the link: LIFE IS A PERFORMING ART
Hi Tam!

I would change the hunger problem. Seriously…why? Why are there hungry kids in our world? How lame!!

Ok, so it’s Monday not Friday but here;s my link. This week I wrote about my personal orphan/adoption story. Hope it is a blessing to all who are interested in adoption or orphan relief work.
