The Seventh Day: Tenth Edition

by Hopeful Spirit on Sunday, March 2, 2008



On the sev­enth day God had fin­ished his work of cre­ation, so he rested from all his work. And God blessed the sev­enth day and declared it holy, because it was the day when he rested from all his work of creation.

Gen­e­sis 2:2–3

Wel­come to the Tenth Edi­tion of the Sev­enth Day Blog Car­ni­val, a weekly event designed to pro­vide blog­gers an oppor­tu­nity to show­case their best work and read­ers a chance to get acquainted with some new sites and authors!

JHS shares Your Online Writ­ing Life: Pro­tect Your Rep­u­ta­tion — and Future (Part Two) from Col­lo­quium, the sec­ond in her series. Last week, she dis­cussed the impor­tance of select­ing an appro­pri­ate email address. She fol­lows that up with a dis­cus­sion about pit­falls to avoid when using that email account.

Fam­ily / Parenting

Kelly shares Book Give­away — Your Child’s Strengths from Pass the Torch. Kelly is giv­ing away the new book, “Your Child’s Strengths,” set for release this month. She says it is a “great read for par­ents and teach­ers, which means it’s a must read for home­school­ers!” The win­ner will be announced March 7, 2008, so hurry over and find out how to enter the contest.

Leo Soder­man shares Teach Your Chil­dren Well from What’s The Ques­tion. He opines that “teach­ers bear a lot of the bur­den in rais­ing our kids. And that’s not right.”

Stu­art shares Reli­gion On the Move from Con­nected Chris­tian­ity. Today, many peo­ple are chang­ing their church affil­i­a­tion or, like me, escap­ing orga­nized reli­gion. Stu­art observes that “maybe that’s a prob­lem, maybe it isn’t. I think it has some­thing to do with grow­ing past the famil­iar and into the unfa­mil­iar ter­ri­tory of faith.”

Laura shares Cook­ing in Cri­sis from Beut­lerBlog­ger. She explains that “when we cook for peo­ple in times of need, we are act­ing as God’s servants.”

Viola Jaynes shares Love’s Gift through Pain from Spir­i­tual Things Mat­ter. As always, Viola’s writ­ing will inspire and com­fort you, while also caus­ing you to think deeply about the par­tic­u­lar topic, often long after you log off and walk away from your computer.

Cindy shares Charis from super­nat­ural chris­t­ian, a dis­cussing about a divinely-inspired gift that is avail­able to everyone.

Sandy Carl­son shares Favorites from Jesus and Bud­dha from Writ­ing in Faith. Note the fas­ci­nat­ing par­al­lels between the two philosophies.

I found the things said by Jesus and Bud­dha VERY INTERESTING !
I have found that the dif­fer­ence is that (SGI) Bud­dhism is not so much a Reli­gion but a life style.
Still it is inter­est­ing how closely they were both tuned into the uni­verse isn’t it!
