This year will be our 39th in September so we have a while to wait but things are going well for us and we really enjoy our new location and friends. May the year be good to you as well and may our service to God be in keeping with his Word and Love.]]>user@domain.comFamily2010-12-28T14:05:25-05:00http://www.claytons.net/blog/files/68d72308eba3a042533722e6af5bb1b9-4.html#unique-entry-id-4http://www.claytons.net/blog/files/68d72308eba3a042533722e6af5bb1b9-4.html#unique-entry-id-4

Snow day of the 26th is already going away. The roads were all clear by yesterday only one day after the snow. The snow is either blowing or melting off the roofs that face south. Aaron left this morning for Florida after going to breakfast with his friends the Halbrooks. They live a few miles from us here in N.C.

We have enjoyed the snow, Aaron enjoyed it and even the kitties enjoyed it (for a minute or two.) The house is nice and warm, the pipes are secure under the house in insulation and the showers are nice and hot.]]>user@domain.comFamily2010-12-26T09:41:20-05:00http://www.claytons.net/blog/files/c627a5894bd652569a3931591c42d968-3.html#unique-entry-id-3http://www.claytons.net/blog/files/c627a5894bd652569a3931591c42d968-3.html#unique-entry-id-3This greeted us this morning out our dining room window. We got 5-6 inches of snow overnight. So much that the roads are still covered. The issue here is that it rains first so the streets can get icy. So services were cancelled for today to protect the brethren from any auto mishaps. The snow will be all gone by Tuesday they say so Aaron will be going home then. Even the after Christmas sales were cancelled at the malls.

(Gotta change the code). We were not expecting him until the 24th evening. He worked half a day then got in his Honda Civic and got here in about 9 1/2 hours. We are all going to Christmas Dinner at our friends the Shoemakers, from church, for Prime Rib about 5 PM and then Sunday Aaron will be leading singing at the Walnut Street church of Christ in Cary, N.C.

The weather people are saying it might snow on the 25th but every time they have said we would get snow it has passed over us. We shall see if we have a "white Christmas." At least our car is All Wheel Drive so driving on wet roads is not an issue. The city has already "brined" the roads so the snow won't stick if it does snow.]]>user@domain.comLife2010-12-20T22:09:25-05:00http://www.claytons.net/blog/files/9561d4b0be3c46f01630fd5b573a3af1-1.html#unique-entry-id-1http://www.claytons.net/blog/files/9561d4b0be3c46f01630fd5b573a3af1-1.html#unique-entry-id-1user@domain.comReligion2010-12-14T13:39:19-05:00http://www.claytons.net/blog/files/9754d22892515877dd8b2fad58230fa9-0.html#unique-entry-id-0http://www.claytons.net/blog/files/9754d22892515877dd8b2fad58230fa9-0.html#unique-entry-id-0"Why should man love his fellow man, if there is NO God?" then he makes it even more poignant than that by saying this; "Why would a man love a woman and put her first in his life if there is NO God?" and this made it so much sense to me I thought I should meditate on it and consider what he had said.

It is true! Why would anyone show love for their wife or fiancee unless God had shown us what love was by sending His Son to give us salvation. Do you think that atheist really love people? I have read many who admitted that without God they are able to do all of the sexual and deviant things they want to do because they feel there is no punishment because it isn't a sin without God. Without God we don't have to treat other well and the golden rule becomes "The one with the gold makes the rules" instead of the way it is in the Bible. If you don't think God will punish you there is no reason to do what is right. Everyone knows that a "fetus" is a child and not just a blog of tissue. But still they kill the children in abortion.

Think about it yourself, and ask yourself. If there is no love without God, how do I respond to God and what He wants me to do? Ask yourself and if you want to discuss it let me know.]]>
