Titus You Are Secure In The Hands of Jesus

Titus, your grandmother and I want to thank you for this past weekend. We were able to be part of both your examination and confirmation. And now we will take our free pass as grandparents to share some things with you. Actually we share this because we love you–a lot. Listening to you at the […]Read Post ›

Christ’s Love Compels Her

Today, after almost forty-two years of working for the same company, my wife, Diane, retires. Actually as we call it she laytires. She planned to retire a couple of years ago, but her company began downsizing at that time and she agreed to stay on for a few of years to help with a particular […]Read Post ›

I Want That!

What do these all have in common? A $100 savings bond – doughnuts – a beer and a shot – hot dogs – a chance to win airline tickets or a new vehicle – a $500 food card – cheesecake – a dessert on a stick? Those are all items offered by various businesses to […]Read Post ›

Good Friday and Sin

My sin takes me farther than I intend to go. My sin keeps me longer than I intend to stay. My sin costs me more than I intend to have to pay.  My sin took Jesus to the cross. My sin held Jesus there until he said “It is finished!” My sin cost Jesus his […]Read Post ›

The Devil Sometimes Buzzes Around Like A Tiny Black Fly

This past summer, I took some of our indoor plants outside and they did really well. The green plants increased in size by probably 30%. The flowering ones produced  beautiful blossoms. As the weather began to cool, I brought the plants back into the house and returned them to their normal place in our garden […]Read Post ›

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 ›

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 ›

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 ›

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 ›
