The things unknown
I don't know why I have been thinking about the unknown things of life and faith but for some reason I have:
a - What was the best thing before sliced bread?
b - Why do they call it a TV set when you only have one?
c - Why does your nose run and your feet smell?
d - Why do doctors call what they do "practice?"
e - Why is it that when you transport something by car, it’s called a shipment, but
when you transport something by ship, it’s called cargo?
f - Why do tugboats push their barges?
g - Why do we accept their are thousands of stars yet touch a bench that says "Wet paint" to test it out?
Why why why?
1 - Did Mary ever tell Jesus off for teasing his siblings?
2 - Did Jesus ever graze his knee and cry?
3 - What happened to Jairus' daughter after Jesus raised her from the dead?
4 - Did the young boy get in trouble for giving his loaves and fish away?
5 - Did the young son and older brother ever become friends again?
Life is full of the unanswered and uncertain questions - yet the most profound, mystery of all - Does God love me? is unequivocally yes - wow now that is amazing!

Now that is the one yes that everyone struggles with!!
wherer do all the socks go in the wash??
how can 'practice make perfect' if 'nobody's perfect?'
Blimey Tom you ask an insightful question - an essay question - What is perfection?
i know it was a bit philosophical eh!
'The People's Dictionary' difines perfection as, The quality or state of being perfect or complete, so that nothing requisite is wanting; entire development; consummate culture, skill, or moral excellence; the highest attainable state or degree of excellence; maturity; as, perfection in an art, in a science, or in a system; perfection in form or degree; fruits in perfection.
If that answers your question!
glad im not perfect!!
wow tom I know some people who THINK they are there already!!!
