We all break the same
The story of New York Govenor Eliot Spitzer reminds me of another great song by Mutemath. “We All Break the Same”
Mr. Spitzer was well known as an Attorney General that “went after” corruption. In fact here is a quote from cnn.com, ” Spitzer, whose squeaky-clean image as a corporate corruption-buster made him a rising Democratic star”
A few years ago, there was the story of the astronaut that traveled across the country in some weird stalking, sexual story. I remember hearing news anchors and “talking heads” saying that she was well educated. After all to become an astronaut, you can’t be dumb. But, being dumb and being smart has nothing to do with falling and breaking.
“We All Break The Same”
the crowds roll by
and im falling in
everyone’s invicible
but its just pretend
and we all freaked out
what a shame
when only tears
know how
to remind us we all break the same
we all break the same
and we all break the same
and everything we’ve built
could be our demise
it’s the sticks and stones
that wear us down
that often save our lives
the different stars tonight
will somehow fade the same
and all the tears we cry
tell us we’re made the same
and when we fall aside
let’s hope we fall in place
we built our different lives
but they all break the same
oh different worlds
and different hearts
and different souls
and different parts
and we all
we all break the same

Stall Out
Racing on a faultline
Bracing for a landslide
Conscious of every move getting harder
Has the race gone underwater?
I keep stalling out
I just can’t keep up
There’s alarming doubt
Am I good enough?
But you keep coming around
To convince me
It’s still far from over, oh
We are still far
We are still far
We are still far from over

PSM Playground!
We are researching our Playground options. Erica has nominated herself as our official rep with the vendors. She has met and talked with about 5 or 6 different playground companies. The quotes and ideas are flooding in.
The bottomline is that our facility is perfect for a beautiful and FUN playground. Those that have come out here have said that our location is great. We want to create a playground that is exciting and safe. We don’t want to go half way. So, we are calling on the “saints” of PSM to pitch in and help out. There were be some more construction days for us to put in labor, but the main thing will be for financial support. As soon as the final numbers and schedules come out, we will post them.
As TD Jakes would say, “Get READY, Get READY, Get READY!!!!!”

ps. Jude had his fourth birthday party on Sunday evening; when his guests started arriving, he was telling them all that his name was TD Jakes. I have no idea where this came from.
Scripture Keys
While praying with people this weekend, I recommended “Scripture Keys for Kingdom Living”. It is a small but powerful prayer tool. Scriptures are grouped in categories that are relevant to 2008 issues. I have used this book to pray scriptures. If you haven’t seen or heard of it and are looking for a great tool in your prayer time, then use Scripture Keys.

Hats in Church
People wearing hats in church is a weird deal. While growing up it was forbidden for men to wear hats in church, but women were able to wear them with ease and honor. The styles of the hats were different and women’s hats were specifically designed for “dress up” occasions. If a guy wore a Cowboy hat or a baseball hat that was considered disrespectful.
Over time the lines between the hats and the sexes have blurred. There are many more styles of hats than there used to be. Men wear hats as fashion statements. Women wear baseball caps and cowboys hats. Dress codes in churches have relaxed somewhat.
I hear statements like “no hats in church”, “if women get to wear hats, shouldn’t men get to also”, “that hat is ok”, “that hat is worn the wrong way”.
Today, what defines respectful hat-wearing in church?
