Since we had it at my house on a Sunday afternoon, we kept it small (plus, my house is small!) We got a scrapbook for Macey to put her written blessings into and I know it would mean a lot to her to get one from you if you'd like to send her one.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02203687221824671825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6689955201234655990.post-11978131883004540432008-09-27T19:02:00.000-07:002008-09-27T19:02:00.000-07:00Still reading!!!!

It seems that two of my three children have decided that it is OK to have a tattoo. My 20 year old and 22 year old decided to "surprise" Mom and Dad and needless to say it wasn't good! However, for example, my daughter has several friends that also have tattoos all of which are in greek but have a christian meaning. I am definitely not happy about it but have seen that they are all very focused on Christ and Christ centered things. That is kind of where this whole comment came from. Just wanted to give you some background there. My daughters blog is "More Than A Conqueror" which is also what her tattoo says (in Greek of course)!alliekathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11959406475272878649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6689955201234655990.post-46243195757471565932008-09-23T21:14:00.000-07:002008-09-23T21:14:00.000-07:00Lisa, you won't take a hit at all on your comments...Lisa, you won't take a hit at all on your comments. (I remember rule #1 from your latest post)<BR/><BR/>Seriously though, you are right in that it is what's inside the heart, rather than how the heart is wrapped. But, if people want to be taken seriously, then they should DRESS the part. People develop a subconscious first impression before they get to know the real you. <BR/><BR/>I know I'LL take a hit on that comment, but, I live and work in the mainstream world.Greg P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16820630041989121909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6689955201234655990.post-13103419139234209632008-09-23T19:31:00.000-07:002008-09-23T19:31:00.000-07:00I definitely don't understand alot of the things k...I definitely don't understand alot of the things kids are wearing, piercings they have, TATTOOS, etc. I'm sure that I will "take a ribbing" for this (east tn lingo in case you have forgotten)but I am going to express myself anyway. While I am shocked by alot of the appearances that I am seeing these days, I am trying to be less judgmental. I have alot of the same thoughts that you expressed in your blog. I could handle 1000 piercings in a body as one person with their pants hanging down around their knees!!! Nothing irritates me more or incites harsh thoughts! Back to the less judgmental attitude....while I don't understand it, I have seen alot of changes recently in our youth group at church specifically in their attitude, worship, interactions with their classmates, missions and just genuinely being on fire for Jesus. Some of these young people don't always have their hair the way or length that I would like it to be, or piercings where I would like or even their hair color what I would like. As you are very much aware, some have chosen tattoos to "express" themselves. Through some discussions with my own perfect little angel children, I have decided that maybe we should be more concerned with what is on the inside than what is on the outside. I think that is what Jesus is looking at. Jesus surrounded himself with some people that others wouldn't have anything to do with because of their appearance, their jobs, their habits, basically based on outward appearance. Just my thoughts....feel free to hit me hard with your comments!alliekathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11959406475272878649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6689955201234655990.post-18748795629283999962008-09-23T10:27:00.000-07:002008-09-23T10:27:00.000-07:00I have felt the same way so many times Eddie.
