I have been praying again for patience. Well I was presented multiple opportunities this morning while I was out and about as well as when I went out for lunch. I must say I failed miserably. Why? Glad you asked. I am not sure. Where I am, they drive awful and that is my biggest […]
The Good and The Bad
I was reading a devotion tonight about accepting the good and the bad from God. It was the story of Jonah in how God both blessed and challenged Jonah. The author said that God uses both good and bad to transform and guide us. After I read it, I thought does God really do bad? […]
The Country Club
Yes I voted for Trump, but the more I watch him, the more I have to wonder. There were certain things I knew he would do, but I never imagined he would turn our White House into a Country Club for his rich elite friends. Mr Trump, please use the brains that God gave you […]
Patience and Kindness
This is supposed to be the season to spread joy, where we act a little kinder, and we are a little nicer. It is unfortunate that it takes a time of the year for that to occur, but that is another issue. Today I want to talk about those of us who are impatient. We […]
All about me
There has been a trend in America for as long as I have been alive. That is, “It is all about me.” and I do not mean me the person writing this blog, but me if you were to repeat the phrase. Not sure why or how this started, but we use to concerned about […]
Stand Your Ground
Recently a football player was gunned down due to road rage incident. I believe in stand your ground, but at the same time it is not ok to chase someone to shoot them. I do not know the entire story of McKnight’s death, but if he approached the other persons car, then is the person […]
Christmas
My wife told me that there are signs from atheist groups in our area telling people to make Christmas great again and avoid church. These groups do understand that Christmas is a Christian holiday. I realize that people have associated Christmas with gifts, Santa Claus, lights, trees, and so forth, but the real purpose of […]
Maturity
If the recount of Michigan,Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania happen to reverse the decision that appoints Hillary Clinton as President, should all the Republicans act as the Democrats did by going out and protesting, causing chaos, destroying property, and ultimately hurting one another? No This is the difference in maturity levels. I have had people tell me […]
Absence
Sorry I took about two weeks off from posting. Not sure why. I guess I felt that some things were more important. The reality is that we need to always put God first. I realize at times this is difficult. Life takes over and we feel like we have to do this thing or that […]
Obama a Great President
I have heard people ask this question and have even provided my own comments about if Obama is a great President or not. Then the other day when Trump became President it hit me. It does not matter if we think he was a great President. I am reminded of the Kings of Israel. There […]
