I Wonder What People Do Without God?

I come to another Good Friday. This one feels different. As I sit in my kitchen with my work computer and my personal laptop covering our table I wonder what is it going to take to end this situation in which we find our world. I read about flattening the curve, social distancing, safe at […]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 ›

If I Could Go Back …

I am in the middle of reading the book Time Lottery by Nancy Moser. The story line follows three people who were chosen as the first to be able to go back to an “Alternity” or to their past life. Once there, they would have the chance to make a change which will result in […]Read Post ›

The Teacher is Always Quietest During the Test

We have just come through the time of the school year for exams. I do not know about you, but exams were not my favorite memories from school days. As I look back, I have to admit those negative pictures most often came from not applying myself completely. But at that time, I thought a lot differently. I can […]Read Post ›

That Is My Mother!

Five kids were out walking one day, when they came upon a creek that flowed through a parkway. It drew their attention. But it was not that water that attracted them. Rather, it was the algae that floated on top. Soon they discovered that if they scooped up some of the algae and squeezed out […]Read Post ›

Hosanna! Crucify Him!

 Holy Week begins with Palm Sunday. As I look towards those events I will be reminded of in the next seven days, two pictures of Jesus come to mind. First was the unfairness he needed to bear. Our world demands fairness. I cannot listen to any news reports or read comments on any social media […]Read Post ›

You Know …

Reading through my last few posts is kind of depressing for me. The things going on are tough to handle and do appear to come without end. But, as I prayed this morning it came to me that I sound like those people who use Facebook to only let everyone know how bad their lives […]Read Post ›

Trusting God Can Be A Bumpy Ride!

It’s been a long time since I posted anything. A lot of struggles and changes have occurred so that I am unsure where to head with this. So, I will start with when I was in church on New Years Eve. I went expecting to hear a message encouraging me to review the past year and look into 2019. […]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 ›

I Detest Mud–But I Play In It All the Time

I have never considered this one of my favorite Psalms. It’s not that the message is not clear. There is hope and praise for God. The Psalm is well written without any veiled messages. There is even a witnessing message. But there are a couple of pictures I see that make me wish that God would have […]Read Post ›
