Matthew 5:9 New International Version (NIV) 9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God. What does this scripture really mean? I am sure that there are many interpretations and here is mine. Christ came to make peace between God and us since we are sinners and God cannot be in the […]

Being Fat
I am about 50 to 80 pounds overweight. At one time, I was able to lose weight at will and went from 276 to 205. As time went on, my weight has fluctuated from 220 to 250 and it sucks. There has been a lot of research into why people these days are extremely overweight […]
Leeches
Our society in America has basically become like leeches. No we do not suck the literal blood out of people, but we expect people to work their butts off to provide for those that do not want to work. What is the worst part is that one part of the government, the Democratic Party, thinks […]
Father and Sons
A father and son relationship is completely different than a father daughters. The son is the one that typically carries on the family name. It is the responsibility of a father to turn the son into a man. Dads want to pass on their knowledge to their sons if they have one. It is not […]
Mother and Son
A mother son relationship is similar to a father daughters, but there are differences. I am sure some of you will say that it is true a mother and son have a special relationship and has been stated by psychologists as the Oedipus Complex or something else. I am not sure I agree with Freud […]
Moms and Daughters

Fathers and Daughters
While I know that parents love all their children and each as a unique relationship, there is something special between a father and daughter. Most daughters are their daddy’s little princess, daddy’s little girl, little pumpkin, care bear, doodle-bug, cupcake, sweet pea, etc. That is not to say that dads do not have cute nicknames […]
College Cost
I read an article by a Republican Senator about how colleges are affordable. Well in my humble opinion, this is partially true for the very wealthy and the very poor. We have become a nation where the rich get richer as always, but now the poor get everything handed to them and they owe nothing […]
Time
What is probably the single most important resource? I bet some said money, some will say food, some will say air, and the list goes on and on, but to me the most important resource is time. You cannot store time, buy time, or borrow time. Once a time has passed, it is gone forever. […]
Minimalist
I have been reading a 14 day devotional about becoming a minimalist. It is an interesting read and to be honest, it is not so much about being a minimalist as removing distractions in your life that keep you away from God. The author seems to be hung up why people by things and for […]
