Drawing Heaven~ This is amazing!

Happy Valentine's Day, 2010!

This email arrived a few weeks back. It is a great email for Valentine's Day. It is all about a young girl who says she is able to paint what Heaven looks like. The girl's name is Akiane Kramarik and you can read all about her at her website:

This is from her latest blog entry:

I had the honor of meeting hundreds of scholars from all over the world. The cumulative years of all their studies would mount up to some twenty five thousand years.

The odd fact is that they still disagree about the origin and the future of humanity, they still debate and debunk each other’s speculations, they still accuse each other of insufficient or inaccurate findings, they still insult each other with belittling and prideful commentaries and conclusions.

I choose not to be involved in such debates and arguments, especially if they are profit or control orientated. So much of scholarly work is done based only on prejudice and self-interests.

Conclusions and firm convictions hurt us if they are based on control—breading untold tragedies. Read More...

Now, here is the email as I received it.

Do you believe God uses the talents of people to tell His story?

This is amazing!

This CNN clip is awesome and well worth the 3 minutes it take to view it.
The images of God painted by a 12 year old child. She started painting at age 4.
Her Mother is an atheist so God was never discussed in their home.
She gives God the credit for her talent as she has never had an art lesson.
This 3 minute clip from CNN is phenomenal.

There is the video from YouTube:

Pastor Removal

This one has been going around for years! When I got it recently, it had nearly 1000 signatures in its body. I did not sign it, after reading the related Snopes article. It's just another Urban Legend!

... the [FCC] is enjoined by the First Amendment to observe a stance of neutrality toward religion, acting neither to promote nor inhibit religion.

The FCC has no authority to ban religious programming. It literally is a myth.

Despite ... claims that Dr. Dobson is soliciting Christians to sign a petition to counter RM-2493, he has denied any involvement with this.

Read the Snopes article, it's interesting!

Pastor Removal from Television

Removal of Joel Osteen, Joyce Meyer, Charles Stanley, David Jeremiah and other pastors from the airwaves.

An organization has been granted a Federal Hearing on the same subject by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) in Washington, D.C. Their petition, Number 2493, would ultimately pave the way to stop the reading of the gospel of our Lord and Savior, on the airwaves of America. They got 287,000 signatures to back their stand!

If this attempt is successful, all Sunday worship services being broadcast on the radio or by television will be stopped. This group is also campaigning to remove all Christmas programs and Christmas carols from public schools! You as a Christian can help!

We are praying for at least 1 million signatures. This would defeat their effort and show that there are many Christians alive, well and concerned about our country. As Christians, we must unite on this.

Please don't take this lightly. We ignored one lady once and lost prayer in our schools and in offices across the nation. Please stand up for your religious freedom and Met your voice be heard. Together we can make a difference in our country while creating an opportunity for the lost to know the Lord.

Please, if you don't wish to participate, return this email to whoever sent it to you so they can at least keep this email going or forward it to someone you know who will wish to participate..

Dr. Dobson is going on CNBC to urge every Christian to get involved. I hope you will sign and forward to all your family and friends. Please press forward, CLEAN UP THE MESSAGE, and forward this to everyone you think should read this.

Now, please sign your name at the bottom (you can only add your name after you have pressed 'Forward' or you have copied and pasted the text).. Don't delete any other names, just go to the next number and type your name. Please do not sign jointly, such as Mr. & Mrs., each person should sign his/her own name. Please defeat this organization and keep the light of our freedom of religion.

When you get to 1000 please e-mail back to: ............
