I'm an inventor!!!

For the first time in my life, a group of us have filed a patent to the US patent office because of some stuff we worked on at work. It's basically a bunch of little stud fasteners that hold the TPS(thermal protection system) tiles on the spacecrafts. Shuttle has lots of them currently 'glued' to its airframe. With a fastener design, it'll be easier to replace them in case of impact damage... Anyway, we're not even sure if this new design will work that well yet..., but anyway, so I'm officially and 'inventor'! ;)

Anyway, more reading of the kings... Hezekiah and his son Manasseh are kinda interesting. Bible recorded one as good, but later on became too proud and the other one did evil in God's eyes, but repented later. Why is it so easy for us to become corrupted by pride? Good thing my invention wasn't really all that..., otherwise for sure I'd be VERY proud of my invention! ;)

It sure would be nice to know how we can avoid getting corrupted like that so that God can bless us more and more without end up causing us to fall! ;) As creatures that were made in God's image, I guess it's just so easy to forget that we're not really God! But luckily God can always do a muckrake on us whenever we're out of line!

But of course ideally we better just repent without being fully exposed first whenever we catch ourselves misbehaving, but of course we should just do Godly things to begin with... such as to love... to do good and to create stuffs! ;) And for our own good, we just better not forget to humbly remember who's really our Daddy!
