Only One Shot At Life
No one determines if or when they will be born, and most haven’t a say regarding the day they die. But we all have some input on how we’re going to live out the days in between. Whether we only have 10,000 days, or a whopping 35,000 days (almost 96 years), we only have one…

All You’ll Ever Need Is Found At The Mercy Seat
There’s a place in this universe, though it was created for every man, woman, and child who’d ever grace this planet, far beyond the reaches of the most powerful telescope. A place not made with human hands, but a place where every sin-stained hand can find complete cleansing. A place ignored by some and cursed…

Have You Ever Been Disowned?
How many times can a person be disowned without it affecting them? Have you ever been disowned? Have you ever been told you’re no longer part of the family? Maybe not a family, but perhaps a softball team, church, group of friends, or dinner club? And why the announcement? Because you didn’t measure up in…

Do YOU Have A Healthy Smile?
I’ve heard it said, and maybe you have as well, that it takes more muscles to frown than to smile. Many people believe it, but there are some who emphatically don’t. Searching the Internet, I discovered quite an array of opinions. For example, there are those who believe the old adage, claiming it takes 43…

Religious Wars and Murderous Maniacs
I hate to say it like this, but murder isn’t anything new. Ever since Cain killed Abel, mankind has had to deal with it. And can you guess what’s probably the number one reason a person would murder another human being? If you guessed religion, you’re absolutely correct. In some form or fashion you can…

God Hates Cancer
It’s as though a light suddenly turned on inside my spirit, illuminating my understanding and igniting my faith. As I said a silent prayer for someone we know who just recently was diagnosed with cancer (for the second time), deep in my heart I heard the Spirit of God say, “God hates cancer!” I have…

Human Trafficking, Abortion, and Jesus
I have received a number of comments regarding my last post: “Human Trafficking? What if I’m pro-choice?” And, I will add, no one wrote to tell me what a great writer I am. But that isn’t why I write. Rather than addressing each comment individually, I felt I might be able to address them in…

Memories and Berdine’s
Memories and Berdines Remember when you were a kid? Remember how simple things were? And how about the old “Dime Stores”? When I was young there was a store called “Places”, and it was only three blocks from where I lived. I could’ve hung out there all day if my folks would’ve allowed it. Such…

Four Anchors
Now when the fourteenth night had come, as we were driven up and down in the Adriatic Sea, about midnight the sailors sensed that they were drawing near some land. And they took soundings and found it to be twenty fathoms; and when they had gone a little farther, they took soundings again and found…

a simple reminder…
We may struggle remembering things such as names, dates, assignments, and the like. But God has given everyone a way to NEVER FORGET the important things. Just a simple reminder. As simple as the dawning of a new day. Each time the sun rises in the east, signifying the beginning of a new day, let…
