You Are the Suburbs

You've got a bad rap, but you think people are just jealous of how good you've got it.
You prefer to live somewhere that's clean, safe, and cheap. What could be wrong with that? You're not going to apologize for liking chain restaurants and good schools.

While you may not be as sophisticated as the city, you're content with your life. Plus, there's more to do in the suburbs than people think.
Besides, you can visit the city anytime you'd like. And when your fun in town is done, you have a comfy suburban house to come home to.

You Are the City

You are chic, sophisticated, and cultured. And you go crazy if you're not around similar people.
Living in the suburbs would feel like dying to you. You can't stand the cookie cutter restaurants, casual fashions, and chain restaurants.

What you love about the city is all its opportunities. Yes, it's expensive, but in your opinion it's worth it.
You may be a bit of a snob, and you're willing to accept that. At least you live well!

I think this is a poorly designed quiz. Some answers I could answer either and on some I could answer both. As a single person I preferred city life, but now that I am married I'm very happy in the suburbs of a college town of 80K. Seems like the older I get the more rural I want to go.

This is somewhat distorted though because...

A...I do live in the downtown area of a city, and...

B...I can’t drive (medical problems) so I have to walk everywhere.

[posterchild]

either->neither

Hi, Mrs. N! Great question!


Suburbs? City?
I am the best of both worlds....
the SMALL city--less than 100,000!
The nearest small city is 20 miles away.
We have conservative values
and feel relatively safe in our own back yards!

Seeds And Faith

ODB RADIO: Listen Now |  Download
READ: Galatians 6:7-10

Whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. —Galatians 6:7

I read a fable about a man who was browsing in a store when he made the shocking discovery that God was behind a sales counter. So the man walked over and asked, “What are You selling?” God replied, “What does your heart desire?” The man said, “I want happiness, peace of mind, and freedom from fear . . . for me and the whole world.” God smiled and said, “I don’t sell fruit here. Only seeds.”

In Galatians 6, Paul stressed the importance of sowing seeds of God-honoring behavior, for “whatever a man sows, that he will also reap” (v.7). We can’t expect to experience the fruit of God’s blessings if we don’t recognize the importance of doing our part.

It helps to follow the example of others who have sown good seed. Author Samuel Shoemaker said that a good example can either inspire us or cause us to say, “Oh yes, he (or she) is like that. He is not troubled by temper or nerves or impatience or worry as I am; he is just a happier temperament.” Shoemaker continued, “It may not occur to us that perhaps he had to fight for his serenity, and that we might win if we would do the same.”

Are you weary of the way you are? Ask God for His help and begin sowing seeds of new actions and responses today. In due season the Spirit will give the increase.

We’re always sowing seeds in life
By everything we do and say,
So let’s make sure the fruit we reap
Comes from the good we do each day. —Hess

The seeds we sow today determine the kind of fruit we’ll reap tomorrow.

Bible in One Year: Jeremiah 32-33; Hebrews 1

[Kathy in Alaska]

Hello Veterans, wherever you are!!

[PinkChampagneonIce]

I have to laugh at this! It says “I am the city...” Well, I used to be! I loved living in Los Angeles, but NOW I live in VERY rural Oklahoma....and LOVE IT just as much! Color me flexible!

I miss some of the city, but have leaned to appreciate the country. NEVER going back.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Thanks, Families, for your service to our country.

Thanks, unique, for the perfect woohoo.
