There are 3 reasons I named my blog this: 1) March is my Birth month, and it's slogan "March comes in like a lion and out like a lamb" is symbolic of changes in life. 2)The title is a play on Steinbeck's "Of Mice and Men" (the best laid plans of mice and men often go awry) 3) Christ is known as the Lion of Judah and the Lamb of God

Theirs is the Kingdom
I met a woman outside of subway today asking for a dollar. I asked if I could buy her something, and she told me up front she actually wanted it for a cigarette. After getting my sandwich, I thought I would give it to her but say "I don't want you to use it for smoking." I think then the Spirit told me "She doesn't need that shit right now. She just wants a cigarette, not a sermon. She gets enough scorn and criticism on her lifestyle without your help." And then I gave her a dollar and joked around with her and shook her hand. Her hands were warm and soft, and mine were a bit cold and calloused. I don't think a dollar was enough for what she gave me.
