The arrogance with which a lot of Christians talk about the Bible astounds me.
“I know the Bible says this, but I don’t like it, so it can’t be right.”
“God wouldn’t really do that.”
“That just feels mean.”
It’s there. It’s in the Bible. Your feelings don’t dictate the Divine nature of God. You exist by the grace of God. You are saved by the grace of God. You have absolutely nothing to do with it. You don’t get to tell God that His morality isn’t up to your standards.
I saw a fly crawling on the wall, and I said, “Wow! Suppose a person had the power to stick to a wall like an insect.” So I was often running and I thought, “What do I call him?” I tried Mosquito Man—that didn’t have any glamour. Insect Man—that was even worse. I went down the line and I got to Spider-Man! It sounded mysterious and dramatic. And lo, a legend was born!

Not my normal post, but please spread this around!! I live fairly close to the fires and I know that is bad and how frightened they are! I lost my house in a fire once and the experience was traumatic. So if you, or someone you know lives in the area of the Paradise, or Malibu fires, please do this or share it if you don’t!
No no no no no. Do not leave food and water out for the animals. Definitely bring your animals in because the wild ones will be more frequent in your area but do not leave out food and water for them. They will become dependent on people and if that happens then they cannot survive on their own which harms them more in the long run. The department of wildlife has warned of this as it gets spread through social media every time we are on fire. The animals will be fine. They can find what they need.
