TEBOW....................HORNUNG

I know I have been around longer than the followers of "Thought's ".............but this story of Tim Tebow is like "history repeating"........back in the 50's ----60"s Notre Dame had a QB who was big,strong and a great college player.........He won the Heisman Trophy........and ended up in the
NFL.

Guess what.........He did not have the mechanics to be the starting Quarterback for Green Bay and in
addition Bart Starr was the Starter and he was a "winner". The Coach Vince Lombardi made Hornung
a running back and he was good enough to make it to the NFL Hall of Fame as a back who could run,pass on the option play and catch passes.He also was a kicker....../He was a mainstay of the Champion Packers and was my favorite player............

I do not think Paul Hornung prayed as much as Tim...........so you never know....

If he makes the Patriots.....He may be on the Roweboys as a reserve.

POPE FRANCIS......WHAT DOES WELCOME MEAN.......

So an unmarried woman has a child......and she goes to a priest an  asks that her baby be given the
Sacrament of Baptism......The priest says no since she is not married..........
I know that in many Catholic Churches this has happened, but  let me tell you the following;

There is a "new sheriff" in town.......and Pope Francis is telling the Church and its Priests to get out
and be with the people and show compassion and welcome to persons seeking the Church.Pope Francis said the the woman had the courage and fortitude to have this "Child of God".....and the Church must welcome this soul into world.

God Bless........More to come.........

TAKE A WORLDVIEW.....FORGET THE NE PATRIOTS

I was thinking of the Patriots loss the other night and all the fans both young and old who were upset at the outcome.
We all realize that it is ok to care about the NFL if you take it in the sense that it is entertainment and
not "life or death" or serious gambling.
I was reading a Matthew Kelley book a few weeks ago and he asked a simple question ..........

What is your worldview............Here is his answer.......


How do you see the world?...  there are almost 7 billion people on the planet, and if we reduce the world’s population to 100 people, proportionally…
  • 57 of those 100 people would come from Asia, 21 from Europe, 14 from North and South America, and 8 from Africa
  • 51 would be women, 49 would be men
  • 68 of those 100 people would not be able to read and write...
  • 6 of those 100 people would own or control almost 50% of the world’s wealth
  • 5 of those 6 people would be U.S. citizens
  • 3 of those 5 people would live on the same street of the north shore of Long Island…
  • 1 out of those 100 people would have just been born
  • 1 out of those 100 people would be just about to die, and
  • Only 1 out of those 100 people would have been to college…  
  • 1/3 of the world’s population died from lack of bread
  • 1/3 of the world’s population died from lack of justice, and
  • 1/3 of the world’s population died from overeating…
SEE YOU LATER...........THINK ABOUT IT.....
