"5 second rule!"
It's kind of a common phrase you hear when someone drops something on the floor, quickly bends down, picks it up and eats it.
But the thing is, the five second rule doesn't really work. One of my friends put it this way: "The germs aren't just going '1, 2, 3, 4, 5, go!'"
Germs aren't the only thing that doesn't follow the five second rule. Temptations don't either.
We wish germs would wait five seconds before springing up on our food; we wish temptations would wait until we were ready to face them. Well, sorry, but neither does that. Germs are always out there just like temptations.
They aren't waiting for us to be prepared so we've got to be ready for them. How? (Try not to drop food on the ground.) Scripture study (not just reading, studying and pondering), sincere prayer, regular church attendance.
It's never too late to start preparing. But the sooner you start, the easier it's going to be.

A Short Movie Review: Tomorrowland
Ever since I saw the trailer I've been wanting to see Tomorrowland. I mean, it looked really good.
I don't want to spoil it but that kind of hard to do when you're writing a review. So I'm going to try my best not to spoil it in case you haven't seen it yet but no promises.
I really liked how the movie was all about the power of one person and making a difference.
I also liked how the trio was composed of an older man, a teenage girl and a younger girl who is not what she seems. That was just a nice change from the usual trio, two guys and one girl or two girls and one guy who are all about the same age.
Tomorrowland is one of those movies that makes you think even after you watch it. Scenes and ideas from it just run through your head afterwards, at least it did for me.
There was some language but besides that it was a very inspiring, uplifting movie. And it's just reassuring to know that even in a world that is plagued with so much violence and confusion, we can still be inspired and make it a better place, if we just step out of a comfort zones, even if it's just a little bit.
