I believe eating right will extend my life and improve its quality.
Until I’m offered a Swiss Cake Roll.
I believe marriage is between one man and one woman.
Until she walks by in those heels, in that dress, with that cleavage.
I believe that God is my helper, so I have nothing to fear.
Until they ask me to write a book.
I believe soft drinks will shorten my life, harm my nervous system, and feed infection in my body.
Until the Southwest flight attendant offers me one – just a little bitty one – for free.
I believe war is almost always incapable of producing peace – and is wrong.
Until she wrote what about me?
I believe there is only one true God worthy of my allegiance and love and life.
Until the game is scheduled on Sunday morning.
I believe children matter, are eternally valuable and worthy of respect.
Until he knocks on the bathroom door for the umpteenth time.
God, I believe. Help my unbelief today.

Definitely like. 🙂 That last one is resonating loudly with me lately…
{ok…and maybe a few more of them too}.
Lindsay says:
Hee hee hee…
Lindsay says:
Not about the serious implications of the post, but just about getting interrupted during a restroom visit.
Beth says:
Those Swiss Cake Rolls get me every time too.
Jonnia Smith says:
Yes, yes, yes! Especially for me, the fear issue.
Now my mouth is watering because of that Swiss Cake Roll picture. Seriously. I’m not exagerating.
Rich Kirkpatrick says:
Ouch. But, in a good way.
Kris says:
Yes. This is me. I wish it weren’t so. Lord, help me.

Melissa Jones says:
I believe in submitting to my husband’s authority until he decides to do something that I disagree with.
Jessica says:
You are awesome for making words out of my feelings.
shayne says:
Gosh. Guess we’re all just a bunch of Esaus aren’t we?
Selling out for whatever will fill our belly at that moment.
Mea culpa, mea culpa.
Yvonne says:
Can you believe that sometimes my kids prefer those little Debbie cakes over my home baked treats? 🙂 Are you really going to be writing a book? How exciting!
Kelli says:
I believe Shaun Groves would write an excellent book.
Period.
😉
Jenn @ I Am Not Superwoman says:
I second that!
Kit says:
no kidding! this blog gets me every time– I know a book is different than a series of blog posts, but Shaun is definitely a good writer with a way of putting important thoughts into words succinctly and powerfully!

I’ve never had a swiss cake roll, this is the first I’ve heard about them. Where can I find them?
