you asked for it!

I was chatting with a buddy the other day and he mentioned how he wanted me to write about a particular topic on my blog. I thought the concept was kind of cool, and we talked about how it might be kind of fun to do a "total request live" version of this for a while. In other words, I would write for a bit based on the topics you'd like me to cover.

So that said... what's your pleasure? Skies the limit.


Post your response and I'll give my best swing at writing something about it - creativity and stretching welcome.

Here's a topic for you Tony: Paul writes that we must run for the prize -- but do you ever feel like you're in a marathon and you just "hit the wall"?

Hi, Tony! It's been a while! Here's what I've been pondering lately...Where's the line between denial of a difficult circumstance and faith that God can (and just may) perform a miracle?

I've got a tough one...

How can we reconcile a belief in an all-powerful God with our free will?

People a little more in the Pentecostal camp than I like to "proclaim things in faith", saying that they believe that God is going to do X or Y.

When X or Y doesn't happen. Then what? Did they not have enough faith? Did God fall through on them? Did they have no business asking for X or Y in the first place? Is God not supposed to be our sugar-daddy in the sky?

I'd like to know your thoughts on the heart/mind struggle. I'm more of a "mind" person and it feels like God speaks more to the hearts of people.

Why some people choose to remain "Nameless"

Even in the Bible there are people who do great things but not really a name.

Is it too late for me to suggest?

Two things --
1. What do you think of the statment, "Don't say that out loud, the devil may hear?"

2. What did you think of the season finale of LOST (season 3) and are you still loving the show?
(PS -- I continue to think it is that BEST-SHOW-ON-TV-EVER. :)

Thanks!
