How Did You Ring in the New Year?

Okay. A show of hands, who watched the ball drop on New Years’ Eve? If you’re in Idaho did you watch the potato drop? They actually do that there. The country bumpkin in me believes it. Full confession…I didn’t even consider it this time around. I witnessed too many midnights in 2016 to stay up… Continue reading How Did You Ring in the New Year?

I Wish God’s Will for the New Year

I’ve seen a lot of wishes for happiness and good things from well-meaning folks. As a born-again believer I’m not comfortable in making those types of wishes. By taking a more eternal view of how God sees things I think you’ll see what I mean. Watch my video for a more thorough explanation. I’ll see… Continue reading I Wish God’s Will for the New Year

Dumb They Called Me

It’s time for my annual spoof of a classic Christmas song. This year The Little Drummer Boy gets a make over. Don’t expect much humor this go-round.

Fortunately I had time to absorb hymn… Continue reading Bible Lessons From 2 Peters

A Voice From a Fire

“Come along fellas. We need to eat the top of the mountain and work down. Most of you know that.” Moses looked back. The sheep were following him up the trail. They settled into a high meadow with good grass. The sheep were soon content as they chewed their meal. A crackling sound caught his… Continue reading A Voice From a Fire

A Final Assurance

Jacob looked at all the carts, sacks of grain and animals before he stared at his sons. Simeon’s face was too sad for a proper reunion. “What is the meaning of all this stuff?” Benjamin walked up to his dad and grasped Jacob’s shoulders. “Joseph sent them. He wants us to bring you to him.”… Continue reading A Final Assurance

Disasters are happening all around me. I don’t deserve this.

God sure has strange ways of increasing my income lately. Often it comes at the expense of others. Case in point: last week I went into work to deliver windows. I was told it was going to be a three and a half day run east of Ft Worth. When I got to work Tuesday… Continue reading Disasters are happening all around me. I don’t deserve this.
