Picky people drive me crazy. Well, perhaps my mental state is caused by things other than fussiness, but nevertheless picky-ness irks me a great deal. Talk about spoiled brat North American behaviour.

Philippians 4:6-7 New Living Translation (NLT) 6 Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. 7 Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.

Jesus looked like a normal, average dude.

Conversely, Jesus appears as a radically normal and average human being experiencing normal life

Who am I? They often tell me I stepped from my cell's confinement calmly, cheerfully, firmly, like a squire from his country house. Who am I?
