Why Was I Ever Born!

The last time I posted on February 26th, “The Lord Gave …,” I wrote about Job and the catastrophes he experienced as God let Satan test Job’s faith. Even though he lost all his children and earthly possessions, Job continued to trust God and his plans for him as he shared “the Lord gave and […]Read Post ›

New Hope Every Morning

I was waiting for Driver to finish his now almost nightly 1:30 am trip to the backyard and thinking, “This has to be part of a dog’s aging process,” when it hit me–this was not only his schedule. More times than I care to admit, I also wake up around 1:30 am to address a […]Read Post ›

Subtitled

Except when it comes to foreign films, I have never been a fan of subtitles. It always seems like so much more work to have to read and watch at the same time and to also ignore the spoken words in a language I do not understand. And then came Ice, our younger dog who, being young […]Read Post ›

When There is A Hole in Your Holiday

This is not the original post I started a while ago. If it was, the beginning would have read: About 5 weeks ago, I had a scare. My 93-year-old father fell and broke a hip. The break itself was repaired without too much trouble. And while there have been some tough times, he seems to be […]Read Post ›

Remember to Say Thank You

Veterans Day November 12th, 2018 – A Day to Remember All Who Served Some served to show their love and respect for God  Everyone must submit to the governing authorities. For no authority exists except by God, and the authorities that do exist have been established by God.    Romans 13:1 (EHV) Some served during wars […]Read Post ›

A Prodigal Father

It’s Father’s Day! Every year as this day rolls around I stand in wonder. I am in wonder because I cannot understand what my heavenly Father was thinking when he decided to bless me with such wonderful children. He knew of all my shortcomings and sinfulness and still blessed me with the responsibility of being their father. […]Read Post ›

What Will They Write on My Headstone?

This topic is one that has rested in my draft category for a long time. I am still not sure  what I want written on my headstone, but I want to talk this through.  I decided the best place to start was to explore what others had engraved at their burial place. I found this one […]Read Post ›

God is So Good!

This past Sunday God decided it was time to take back one of the blessings he had given to our family. Trey, our older dog had served the purpose he was put here to perform and to be honest, he was just unable to go on. I believe that blessings from God come wrapped in many different […]Read Post ›

Let Me Tell You About …

“So what is your Christmas going to be like this year?” That was Henry’s first question to me. He had a way of looking right into me that said he was not going to utter another sound until I answered him. And then no simple “Ok” was going to suffice. Henry was dying or at least […]Read Post ›

Sixty-Five and Still Learning

OK, so this week I turned sixty-five. In my younger years, this age seemed so far away. At that time, sixty-five was a milestone that meant you could retire. It was the age of my grandparents or that cat person who lived down the block. These were the people for whom my parents said I needed to open the door or offer to […]Read Post ›
