One beautiful sunny April Saturday, I went to a beautiful wedding. The day was magnificent. The bride and groom put in a request of God and he delivered…big time!
The church was planted with them most beautiful tulips, daffodils and other spring flowering plants, trees and shrubs. The music, the bride, the groom, everyone was dressed in their best clothing and huge smiles were reflected on the members of the audience as we watched this ageless tradition play out before us.

When I was a child and I was, well…"dragged" to church on Sunday their was a hymnal book in front of me in the pew from which we sang. Today all of this is done on a huge flat screen TV along with a media show! I digress.
Recently a famous couple who have a large family came to the hard cold reality that although they had a large family, the cost to just keep that family together and living below the poverty line was taking a toll. A toll on the marriage, the health and well being of the children, and the family a whole. Now I don't know how this couple came to the decision to become a "reality" show but, they decided that this income stream would solve their problems and that they could fill their own hole of needing attention by going this route. Well you know what happened. Instead of providing (which was their initial intent), their lives, their marriage, and their family became the center of a media circus. This downward spiral to date does not have a happy ending and everyone has suffered and in my opinion lost out on what was a joyful family. Yes, they had tough times, but who doesn't. Yes, there are solutions, but critical thinking is need to see further down that road to see what might play out.
