Life has a way of becoming stunningly obvious at times. Take last week for example. My driving assignments have slowed since the Christmas rush has subsided. Not to fear, the Apainter Paul is getting some big painting jobs he needs help with. Last week we were painting an exterior in Frisco. We finished the back… Continue reading Jim passed this morning

A DEDICATION REQUEST
Elkanah sat at the table after serving everybody. He looked at his favorite wife. “Hannah, why aren’t you eating? I’ve given you twice as much as anyone else. Don’t let the food go to waste.” Peninnah snickered. “I don’t know why you throw the food to a dog like that. She’s only eating for one.… Continue reading A DEDICATION REQUEST
Who Really Believed that Overgrown Underground Rodent Anyway?
As I recall Phil said there was going to be six more weeks of winter on February 2nd. You know…that groundhog in Pennsylvania. So why are we in the 70’s and 80’s here in Texas already?

Make sure you don’t drink anything from the vine or eat anything unclean. Never use a razor… Continue reading TELL ME MORE
I’m More Valuable Than a Bird or Flower
I’ve been shang-hide lately for toddler duty by the fine staff in the early childhood department of Stonebriar Community Church. I don’t really mind it too much. I mean what’s a toddler whisperer going to say when asked to watch tots so their parents can worship in big church? This all started on the first… Continue reading I’m More Valuable Than a Bird or Flower
TESTING GOD
Gideon tapped the heads of wheat against the rim of the winepress. The pile inside looked like enough for about two ephahs. He glanced over his shoulder. I hope the Midianites don’t find me here. They shouldn’t since grape harvest won’t occur for a few more months. A minute later he looked around. He caught himself… Continue reading TESTING GOD
