Prison ministry comes with a few challenges. Quite a few actually but I want to focus on my most recent visit behind bars. We had what they call a retreat this past Saturday at the George Beto Unit. When I attend a retreat in the free world I usually go off someplace special to add… Continue reading A Positive Impact

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.
Humbled by Service
There, but by the grace of God, go I. It’s a sentence that I hear myself repeating from time to time. Last Saturday was one of those days I heard it in my head a lot. I went to south Dallas with a team from Stonebriar Community Church to help feed some homeless folks. We… Continue reading Humbled by Service
I Did It Again
I’ve said it here several times but my life is unpredictable. You wouldn’t know that by looking at my domicile history. When I was married Barb and I had a habit of moving fairly frequently. We counted 21 places of residence during the first 20 years of our marriage. We never lived three years at… Continue reading I Did It Again
Waiters Serve
God’s waiting room is quite crowded. At least that’s my observation. Prayers await an answer…at least we hope the answer isn’t no. Cold hearts are still ice cubes. Health concerns are still bleak. Finances are still too tight. Hunger and poverty still occupy too much of the earth. It feels like our prayers have bounced… Continue reading Waiters Serve
Seeing Through Eyes
If I can ever get that cloning process perfected I can make a lot more money in my life/lives. The mattress company I’ve been driving for took the entire week of July 4th off. As in they shut the entire factory down. That meant I didn’t have anything to deliver that week unless it was… Continue reading Seeing Through Eyes
Rejection Stinks
Life is unsettling. Mine is unpredictable at best. July 4th was not what I expected this year. Last Wednesday I received a phone call from the dispatcher at the temp agency I drive for. A company needed a driver with doubles endorsement to take a load to Amarillo. I would need to go in on… Continue reading Rejection Stinks
Half Done But Not Over
Okay. Here’s the fact. 2019 is officially half completed. How are those New Years resolutions coming along? What do you mean you don’t even remember what they were? Why did you ever bother making them in the first place if they weren’t really that important to you to begin with? I guess that’s a mute… Continue reading Half Done But Not Over
What Was That?
Driving hazards are common. Some are avoidable. Some…not so much. I see pieces of tires strewn across the road everywhere I drive. My heart goes out to the driver of that event because I’ve been there. Well, I was there this week, too. Yeah, I was responsible for some of that rubber carnage on I-40… Continue reading What Was That?
Be Still to Exalt
Exalt is a word we rarely use in today’s culture. Probably because we don’t have much to exalt. Just to be sure we all know what is being discussed here I looked up the definition, like any good Webster would do. Among the definitions is: raise in rank or power; praise highly; make lofty or… Continue reading Be Still to Exalt
God Bless You
I seem to be entering an interesting phase in my life. It’s a phase I’ve been praying would come. I hope it continues. Much of my life has been lived just above poverty. The only time I bought a new car it was one of the smallest ones built at the time. My current vehicle… Continue reading God Bless You
