Today is election day throughout our great country. Many people have taken advantage of early voting, but most (like myself) will be voting today. I have always said I don’t align myself with any party, though I don’t keep it quite so private that I disagree with 99% of what Democrats stand on. In the …
Hi everyone. My last post was in February of 2015. That’s 3.5 years ago. Before that, it was just over a year ago. I know, in each of those I keep saying I’m going to write more. I’ve noticed something interesting over the past few years. Actually, I suppose it’s been over the past decade. …
Wow, so it’s been a long time since I’ve been here. I wrote last year about how I wanted to blog more, and that went over like a lead balloon. It isn’t for lack of having something to write about. I think it’s because I’ve become a little more reserved lately. I used to be …
A new year is always a good time to take a look at where we’re at and even get a fresh start. I’m not one to make resolutions really, but I do have a few goals: I want to read through my Bible again this year. I’ve done it for the past 2 years now. …

Something I’ve always been taught, and even seen in my own life, is that it’s so easy to see the mistakes, wrongs and shortcomings in others while missing those of our own. If we do notice an area of our own lives that needs attention, we tend to reason our way past it without making …
Ah, the smell of turkey, dressing, pecan pie, sweet potatoes, gravy and all sorts of other side dishes filling the air… Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, football, time with family and friends, football, eating until we can’t possibly eat any more, football, black Friday shopping, football, leftovers for days, and more football. That must be what Thanksgiving …
From Revelation chapter 15: 3: And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints. 4: Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for …
No, no, not the kind you’re thinking. Not the kind where people say the Bible is just a bunch of stories that man came up with and put together to fool all of us ‘poor’ Christians into believing something that isn’t true. Most all of you that know me know where I stand on the …
