Recently, I have become more aware of words. I know I am often half a bubble off when using descriptive words. One word that bothers me when I hear it spoken is "invalid." Does the speaker mean inVALid (the "a" sounds like catch) or does the speaker mean INvahlid (uh)? Which came first? or Are the two words even kinfolk?
From what I can learn, the description of a handicapped individual was first. Later, their passport or some other legal documents were stamped "invalid:" to indicate inability to fufill.
This is just the beginning of my blog, having been encouraged (yea, badgered) into starting one.

When asked "What would you consider to be your "lifetime scripture?", I flippantly answered I Thessalonians 4:11 because that was the first one I learned as a child. However, the scripture I would most like to be remembered by is Colossians 3:17: "Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father." (NAS)
