Redistribution of Wealth?

Talk about politically correct terminology. Redistribution of Wealth? Stealing is stealing whether you break into a home and take the money yourself or you "elect" someone else to do it for you. The only difference is if the other guy takes the money you can claim innocence. It's alot easier to avoid the guilt that way. Right?

Since when was it our patriotic duty to condemn a man for securing his families financial future. When did it become our right to determine the worthiness of another man's quest to provide vital services to his fellow man? How can you condemn a man who creates wealth for the purpose of solving problems such as finding a cure for cancer or diabetes or ahlziemers. What right do you have to claim to know the heart of a man by condemning him as "greedy?"

Greed comes when risk is taken away. If you have no opportunity to fail you can not succeed. Because success is measured by overcomming your failures. Without that option you you are just going through the motions. If there is no faith required, then God is not needed.

ADD Moment

DeeAnn was talking to me in the car on the way home from Family Home Evening. She was saying that you have to be very specific when you are talking to someone with A.D.D.. She was refering to a conversation that was going on early that evening.
Spencer spoke up and said, "I have ADD."
We were kind of suprised at the confident manner in which he declared this.
We said, "Well, yeah you might." We had discussed the idea that he might have A. D.D., but not in front of him before.
Spencer piped up, "No, I do have ADD."
DeeAnn asked, "How do you know? Did your teacher tell you, or what?" trying to figure this out we asked him, "Do you even know what A.D.D. is?"
Spencer said, "It's that paper that you fill out."
It was then that DeeAnn realized he was refering to paper he had recieved from his teacher. The top of the paper said ADD.... it was a math paper.

Prayer for mommy

Yesterday DeeAnn was layed low with a major migrain headache. The pain was so intense that she began to loose control of her speech and her ability to think so I came home to give her a blessing. When we had finished the blessing DeeAnn, Lauree and I were in our bedroom talking and trying to get DeeAnn relaxed.
Matt came in to the room and said, "Mommy, I didn't know what to do. So I prayed for you to get better, cause Heavenly Father he can heal." He later came up to me and repeated what he had done. The animation he displayed in his voice and on his face were awsome. He was very somber but filled this energy, as he matter of factly told me that he said the prayer because Heavenly Father and Jesus, they knew how to heal and they "raised people up." How could anyone not be healed, when Matt prays for them. He knows the source of true healing.
