Have you ever had one of those dreams you wish you never had? You know what I mean…someone is chasing you and you can’t move your legs…or a T-Rex is about to eat you alive. Yeah, you want to erase it from your memory but you can’t. Being poor has it’s pitfalls. Driving an old… Continue reading I lived out a dream last week

I'm a truck driver turned writer. My writing drives people to Jesus.
I love sunsets/sunrises, dark chocolate, coffee, cats and dogs (as long as their owners pick up after them) and solitude. My relationship with God through Jesus Christ is most important to me, not a religion. This writing gig is all God's idea. I only wish to bring more attention to Jesus with it.
Short-term 2nd Chance Successes
Jonah awoke with a sharp pain on his leg. He reached down and groped his right shin. He pealed off what must have been a section of octopus tentacle. “Lord, how much longer must I suffer like this? I’m sorry for running. I know it was foolish of me. Nobody can win against You. Please… Continue reading Short-term 2nd Chance Successes
The Holidays are Hard
A writer’s life is fraught with challenges. Like properly using the word fraught in a sentence to lead off a blog post. If God chooses you to write for His glory don’t expect an easy life. If your life was cozy before your call it will be turned upside down after your call. The reason… Continue reading The Holidays are Hard
December 1, 2017 Newsletter/blog post
Hey y’all. Yeah, it’s that time of crazy time of year for me, too…even though there’s just one of me. I’m sorry I haven’t been keeping up with my regular blog schedule. It’s kinda hard to think of something to write when you don’t have time to even think, let alone think of anything to… Continue reading December 1, 2017 Newsletter/blog post
Thank You Father
Gratitude, gratefulness, thanksgiving…all themes with the same goal. Appreciation for what we have over desires for what we want. Sounds good, so why is so hard to keep it in practice? Just some thoughts to ponder during this holiday week. I’m sharing another poem I wrote a couple of years ago for Thanksgiving. It doubles… Continue reading Thank You Father
The Fruit of the Spirit Prayer
Today I’m sharing with you the compilation prayer that ends the chapter of the Fruit of the Spirit from my book 100 Prayers of a Writer. I’m very pleased how well this prayer came together. I find myself needing its message frequently. Galatians 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience,… Continue reading The Fruit of the Spirit Prayer
Man Overboard
“Tarshish? Yeah, we’re going to Tarshish. What you need us to take there for ya?” “Just me.” Jonah watched the crew loading crates below deck. The captain looked at Jonah’s small pack. “You sure do travel light. You have family in Tarshish?” Jonah shook his head. “No. Just been hankering to visit that fine city.… Continue reading Man Overboard
Be Careful What You Stand On
I thought about calling this post “Slippery Footing.” I think the title I chose fits better. I’ve had trouble standing lately. Not literally, just figuratively. About the time I think I know what to expect in my life the unexpected occurs. When the unexpected happens so many times a fella realizes it’s actually normal for… Continue reading Be Careful What You Stand On
Stress is Spelled M-Y L-I-F-E
Thursday I drove from Ft Worth to Amarillo. I’ve done it several times and lived to tell about it. So, what made it so different this time? It was 86 degrees when I left Thursday afternoon. On Friday morning it was 38 degrees. Being a native Michigander I knew enough to check the forecast before… Continue reading Stress is Spelled M-Y L-I-F-E
Battle Song
“I wouldn’t have believed it if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes.” King Jehoshaphat kept walking back to Jerusalem. He couldn’t shake the prophesy of Micaiah about King Ahab dying in this battle. “Why weren’t you fighting at the time?” “My brother just received a gash on his leg before it happened. I… Continue reading Battle Song
