A few days ago we celebrated Christmas, the birth of Jesus Christ. While He more than likely was born in late winter/early spring, this time of the year was chosen to represent His birth. Jesus coming to Earth was the greatest gift that mankind could ever experience. He was vulnerable when He was younger, He […]

Family
There is nothing like being around family for Christmas. My son went to Upstate New York where there was like 3 feet of snow and it was pretty cold. While he made it home for Christmas, we were not actually sure he was. My wife and I decided that he got himself up there and […]
Grumpy
I’ve noticed recently that older people just seem grumpy. This really is nothing new as I also noticed this back in the 70’s, 80’s, 90’s, and even 2000’s. However, it just seems to have gotten worse with time. Do I blame these people, no. For the most part, it seems like everyone that is not […]
To Serve
We were born to serve. I know it is hard to believe since our parents have told us how special we are and how much the world owes us, but sorry you and I and everyone else was put here to help others. Think of it this way, did Christ come to server or be […]
Scrooge
It is Christmas season and one of my favorite movies is the Christmas Carol or Scrooge. There are many versions and I think they are all good. The reason I brought this up is because I am thinking that I am like Scrooge. I give money pretty freely, but it is my heart that I […]
Aggressive Driving
I am an aggressive driver. In fact at times I am a bit of a bully on the road and I have no problem admitting that. I am also not ashamed of it. To me a car is a tool that is meant to get us from point A to point B. There are rules […]
America
I am getting more and more upset with how the politicians are running this country. I know that no one comes into power except by God, but it does not mean that they can do what they want. They are supposed to seek advice from God and while I cannot say haven’t, I can say […]
Just what God ordered
Tonight, my son was having problems with his car. I was a bit upset, but I realize that things can happen. My wife and I got everything ready and headed over around 9:45 PM or so. On the way, I stopped to get gas and noticed a young man talking to a woman. After their […]
Praying for your enemies
People these days, and I am one of them, are just so unforgiving. We all feel like we have be wronged by another especially politicians. The other day I got very upset at what the Republicans where getting ready to do with the taxes and how it was basically going to screw over the American […]
Selfishness
It is that time of the year where we think more of ourselves than others. Yes I am being a bit cynical, but tell me it is not true. Now I cannot say that everyone feels this way, but it sure seems like it at times. Lets face it, parents say they are thinking of […]
