Bible Bookmarks; I'm Starting Up Again!!!




If these bookmarks are used on another site, the user must make it clear that they belong to http://theflippingsweetblogtwo.blogspot.com.

Does anyone remember when I used to make bookmarks. I would still be selling them if they hadn't been deleted when I losed most of the memory on my hardrive. (I'm sure I can get them back somehow). I'm beggining to make them again... With a better knowledge of MS Paint. They will be going for 50 cents each. (Feel free to take the ones I have already posted, on the house!... I mean blog). I have been getting many ideas for new bookmarks, so expect to see much more. When I began this project, I wasn't trying to get more money (although I made over $30) I was just trying to get people to be interested in reading the Bible. So that's my goal (still), but now, I'm planning on downating a lot of the money to many Christian ministries. One other thing I see in this... I really like doing computer graphic design... So I guess that makes it one of my talents. Does anyone remember that you are suppose to use your talents for the goodness of GOD! I guess I'm tripiling it here... How about we read the Parable of the Talents right now???

The Parable of the Talents

Matthew 25:14-28

14"Again, it will be like a man going on a journey, who called his servants and entrusted his property to them. 15To one he gave five talents of money, to another two talents, and to another one talent, each according to his ability. Then he went on his journey. 16The man who had received the five talents went at once and put his money to work and gained five more. 17So also, the one with the two talents gained two more. 18But the man who had received the one talent went off, dug a hole in the ground and hid his master's money.

19"After a long time the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them. 20The man who had received the five talents brought the other five. 'Master,' he said, 'you entrusted me with five talents. See, I have gained five more.'

21"His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!'

22"The man with the two talents also came. 'Master,' he said, 'you entrusted me with two talents; see, I have gained two more.'

23"His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!'

24"Then the man who had received the one talent came. 'Master,' he said, 'I knew that you are a hard man, harvesting where you have not sown and gathering where you have not scattered seed. 25So I was afraid and went out and hid your talent in the ground. See, here is what belongs to you.'

26"His master replied, 'You wicked, lazy servant! So you knew that I harvest where I have not sown and gather where I have not scattered seed? 27Well then, you should have put my money on deposit with the bankers, so that when I returned I would have received it back with interest.

28" 'Take the talent from him and give it to the one who has the ten talents. 29For everyone who has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him. 30And throw that worthless servant outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.'

You see, GOD gives us talents to bring glory to HIS name, and to increase the number of believers. I'll I have to say for now... Almost time for school, almost time for my birthday... Remember GOD not only in your troubles, but your good times also. Don't be ashamed of the name of JESUS!

GOD bless you all. Go in peace. And bring glory to the name of GOD!

Part 6


Hey! Give me my nuts back!


Here's a hint: This black and white picture sells at gift shops for over 30$.


This is a very small sample of all of my pictures. If you want more, just say the word, and I'll either post them or send them to you via email. Sorry I was kind of slow on doing this. I've been very busy, not just with current affairs, but with many things on the internet. It's kind of been wearing me out... I've been getting insulted and stuff, too... But I'm going to attack all of my problems head on. Yes, filled with the SPIRIT, having seen life through GOD's eyes, I will refuse to be put down by the devil. I will not be miserable when he wants me to. I'm more then a conquerer! Yeeeaaah!!! So, I'm trying to get a little more on track. I might post as much, but I'm here. Now, what I was going to say has kind of been blown out of proportion... I think I will end with a verse. A verse from one of my favorite new testament books, James.
My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;
Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.
James 1:2-4
GOD bless you all. Peace be with you. Keep your faith limitless.
Your servant, RC Hammer

I'm Back!!! Part 1.

I'm back... I'll sum up my trip for you:

1. I drove through Chicago. "Let's go inhale some nice toxic fumes!"
2. I stayed at the Wisconsen Dells for a little while. That place is like theme park land! Carnival rides and waterparks are everywhere!... Nobody really comes out at day, everyone wonders around and goes to there great novilty stores at night!
3. I drove through Minnesota. I saw the Mississippi river. Lots of corn.
4. I drove through many miles of South Dakota... Flat, flat, South Dakota. But, once I got to the end of it, I realized it was a very mountanous region. I went to the Badlands... Very Awesome. I also saw Mount Rushmore.
5. I went through Wyoming... All the way to Yellowstone National park! Yellowstone is a very beautiful place... with great natural sights. It's also teaming with abudant wildlife... I'll show some abudant wildlife in a little bit...
5 1/2. I went to Montana and Idaho... while staying in Yellow Stone. Idaho looks a lot like Napoleon Dynamite's homeland... So I have no doubt that they didn't film it in California.
6. I went down a little ways, to the Tetons. Very beautiful place, but I didn't get to see much... Because our car broke... (kind of), and we had to fix it. Our car broke... Haha.
7. We stayed there a little while, and then we drove home through a few different states. They were: Utah, Colorado, Nebraska, Iowa... and of course, Illinois, Indiana, and Michigan. Many things to see in all of those states.

In total, I went through 13 states... Indiana, Illinois, Wesconsin, Minnesota, South Dakota, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho, Utah, Colorado, Nebraska, Iowa, and Michigan.

It feels very good to get back. While I was gone, I took over 1,000 pictures. I will only share some of my highlights with you (I will do a few more "parts", with pictures).

I actually thought I would be home sooner, but we had to stop for a little while in Indiana. GOD actually told me that we were going to have to stop for a little bit during my trip, I just didn't realize it. I asked my Dad when we would be home (on one of the last days of our trip). I remebered his answer... and I believed it. I then kept heaing James 4:13-15 in different places... I didn't realize this was what GOD was saying to me:

Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain:
Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.
For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.
James 4:13-15
A little be later, our car's radiator broke, and we had to stop for a little while... Yes, I could have been home much sooner. My message is: If you have faith, GOD will speak to you. Maybe not in words, but in acts, HE will make HIMSELF known. (HE sometimes speaks to you, too).
In the next few posts, I will try to post pictures... GOD bless you all! Peace be with you!
