Penn of Denn
Well, it has been a disappointing couple of weeks. Not anything earth shattering, but still. . . First Mel Gibson announced that he was divorcing his wife of 28 years and that his Russian girlfriend was pregnant.
Then singing sensation Susan Boyle, of Britain’s Got Talent fame, goes ballistic and cusses out a couple of reporters. And that lady has a potty mouth. I can’t believe she used that same mouth to kiss her mother.
Now celebrities fornicating and cussing isn’t anything new or surprising, but both of these folks were fairly vocal in talking about the importance of the church in their lives. Now I know some of you are thinking: Don’t judge people Denn. But Jesus did tell us that we would be able to identify a tree by its fruit. He reminds us in Matthew 12:33 “A tree is identified by its fruit. If a tree is good, its fruit will be good. If a tree is bad, its fruit will be bad.” If that is truly the case, those trees aren’t looking so hot.
Just a reminder that ultimately people will believe what we do, not what we say. Have a great week and remember: To see what is really possible, you will have to attempt the impossible.
