Hubby and I watched a movie in the course of the weekend. I would not bill it as a ‘Christian’ movie; however, I have some appreciation for it.

You see it is the only secular movie that I have seen in memory that so clearly depicted the consequences of a single compromise.

A compromise the teacher thought would surely help his student, encourage him, spur him on to greater achievements. After all he had earned an A – changing it to an A+ wasn’t that big a deal, right?  And yes it would prevent Student A from the competition; but Student A was already a solid achiever; he’d never know; he’d be okay, and Student A+ needed this competition.  (Oh how we can reason when we contemplate compromise.)

Student A+ did win the competition and became a powerful, rich, influential man — but never an honest man.  You see he cheated to win the competition and he saw the Headmaster and the Teacher turn a blind eye.  He knew why; his Father was  a Senator and benefactor to the School.

Twenty five years passed and the teacher finally fessed up to Student A what he had done, telling him he should have been included in that prestigious competition. The Teacher was finally free. He had finally confessed and now what would Student A do?

Well, something pretty remarkable, I think — he entrusted his own son to the tutelage of his beloved Teacher.

Compromise. It’s sin. It hurts the Compromiser and those compromised. No body wins.
At least not until repentance is received and forgiveness is given.

Any thoughts?

Okay. I’m gonna ask a favor of you. 

A couple or three years ago I established my blog KAT’s Meows because I wanted a place to ‘hiss’ a blessing of political and other natural matters rather than doing so here at The White Stone.

So. The favor?

For as many of you as will, I’d like for you to go over to KAT’s Meows and sign up for email delivery to your in-boxes of my postings over there. It works pretty much the same way as here at The White Stone. I post and within 24 hours or less The Blogger generates an email to you containing my post.

So why do I want you to sign up? 
This is an election year!   :)  And quiet frankly I’d like to influence you. And give you information to help you influence others. And yes I could do it here at The White Stone but KAT’s Meows is a better venue for it, I think.

I’d like to see a good man elected this year.  And I’d like to share information that comes to me from varied sources about all the candidates; and particularly the man I want to be President.

So if you will, click HERE and you will be directed to KAT’s Meows.  There you will find a place to sign up for email deliveries.   When you get over there look for  this:

Want New Post emailed to your inbox?

I hope you will.

And perhaps I’ll have a IDOK for you in the morning too.   :)
