I have heard people say that what they do behind closed doors is their business. That is partially true. No one will know what you are doing, but God will. Jesus told many parables and one of them was about the talents. Matthew 25:14-30 English Standard Version (ESV) The Parable of the Talents 14 “For it […]

Guys
Why are guys such jerks? I am a guy and I am asking that question. Some guys abuse woman because they are stronger than most and think it is ok to beat woman into submission. All I can say to that is wow! To all of those guys that act this way, I thought you […]
Irresponsible
I love my son, but at time he is very irresponsible. He is very smart, but he does some of the dumbest things at times. Sometime ago he got a second tattoo, but he could not really afford it and in fact now he is running low on money. He is under the impression that […]
Generosity
I try to be generous with my money and time. That is not to say that I am also not selfish with my time and money, because I am. However, today I experienced generosity from a total stranger. It is funny how God works. While driving to work this evening, I was on a turnpike […]
Job Frustration
I travel for my job and one of my goals was to get to 2 million Marriott Points. I started this new job and I am staying at a Marriott. My thought is great, I will be getting tons of points. Well that is about to change. I move into a Corporate Apartment on 2Mar2018. […]
Lots of money

Me, Me, Me
I saw a report today that says Millennials are more concerned about themselves where as the older generation is more concerned with mentoring and helping others. What has my generation done? The answer is simple, we have created selfish, self-centered, uncaring people. I know that may sound harsh, but with us constantly telling them they […]
Kindness and Being Blessed
I saw a movie the other day called “A Christmas Tree Miracle”. Was it great acting, no. It kind of reminded me of “Facing the Giants”. However the message that it gave was powerful. While the family was not deeply religious in the beginning, the acts of kindness they displayed ended up helping them out […]
Overweight
Something like 2 out of every 3 or 3 out of every 4 people is overweight. One of the biggest resolutions people make at this time of the year is to lose weight and get back in shape. Typically, this lasts for about a month or two then they give up. Why? I have several […]
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 […]
