confluent thoughts: PRINCES AND PRIDE
http://confluentthoughts.blogspot.com/2009/12/princes-and-pride.html
Thursday, December 3, 2009. In my fascination with history as a young boy I began reading about little known things about European royalty in my spare time. One of the most intriguing stories I found was about two princes who lived in the 1400s. On June 22, 1483, a statement on behalf of Lord Protector Richard was issued and read all over England declaring that Edward IV's marriage to Elizabeth Woodville was illegitimate and that, in consequence, Richard, not his nephew, was the rightful king.

Monday, April 6, 2009. THE KING OF LOSERS. Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week, the last week of Lent, which began on Ash Wednesday over a month ago. Just as his title. King of the Jews. One of the reasons we know Jesus swallowed up all the failure in his story is what happened to the failed disciples afterwards. They found resurrection. From out of their failure, a great, great hope sprang forth. Jesus is God’s cure for what ails us. On Good Friday at 1PM. Thursday, April 2, 2009. Call me apath...

Friday, September 25, 2009. FLOODING IN METRO MANILA. I watched a movie and fell asleep on the sofa last night and woke up this morning to a flooded living room. About a quarter of an inch deep. Water from the ledge seeped into cracks overnight and all I've done all morning is sweep water into my bathroom! I went to the Condo Administration office and was told that half the residents of the 17-storey building have some form of flooding in their apartments. Words and Music by Reuben Morgan.

Friday, January 1, 2010. It's been a busy week but in the middle of all the happpenings, one always finds time to reflect and look back at the year that was, and say, "God's been good.". A week ago, we celebrated Christ's birth. Last Sunday, the Gospel reading was about the middle school-aged Jesus in which his parents lost him in the crowd and busyness of the festival season they were in.

Tuesday, October 27, 2009. THE FOUNT OF WORSHIP. Man-made gods of wood and stone, which cannot see or hear or eat or smell. But if from there you seek the LORD your God, you will find him if you look for him with all your heart and with all your soul. In 999, Thorvald Konradsson came to Iceland accompanied by a German Bishop (German Shepherd) named Fridrek, of whom little is known. Thorvald and Fridrek began the evangelization of Iceland. Their efforts were fruitless and they had become subject o...Their...
