Co-Ops Should be a much Bigger Thing

 

Co-operatives (co-ops) should be much more of a thing than what they are.  I think that when the government doesn't want to do its job in helping the citizenry, an opportunity should be afforded to ordinary people.  Through co-ops, they can enter into the marketplace to offer and obtain reasonably priced goods and services, thus hopefully evening the playing field for consumers.

New beginnings...

2nd Corinthians 7:1 (MSG) - With promises like this to pull us on, dear friends, let's make a clean break with everything that defiles or distracts us, both within and without. Lets make our entire lives fit and holy temples for the worship of God.

So how do we get a new beginning? We've made mistakes. Ok...let's be honest, we flat out rolled around in sin...enjoyed it even. It doesn't really matter what brand of sin you were in; from lying to murder...it's all sin. The Bible says sin has pleasure for a season. But did you REALLY enjoy it? Do you remember the last time you felt close to God? Do you remember when the Bible spoke to you with clarity? Have you ever prayed, "I miss you God"? That's actually the reason I started this blog. I am in this place right now. I missed the voice of God. I missed feeling "whole". This blog isn't for everyone. Its for those of us who, like me, lost their way for a little while.
