  • Plainly Spoken…

    I’m certainly no theologian. But because of the “business” I’ve been in for several decades, it has been incumbent upon me be somewhat of a dilettante in it. I’ve attempted to explore some of the mysteries of the scriptures and understand the difficult passages there. It’s not the hard to understand or disputed passages that…

  • The LORD, My Keeper, Part II

    The LORD, My Keeper  Part II… So, what does HE know that uniquely qualifies Him to be my keeper? “My wrongs are not hidden from You.” Psalm 69:5,6 “All My desire is before You.” Psalm 38:9 “All my adversaries are before You” Psalm 69:19b “My times are in Your hands” Psalm 31:15 “You know the…

  • Gratitude

    Living thankful lives doesn’t come natural. Gratuitous living and giving is not easily found or attained. There’s very little “thank you” in the world. As a matter of fact it seems that a spirit of entitlement is increasingly more prevalent. Raising children, we find that gratitude must be taught. All Moms and Dads know this.…

  • Import Before Export

    I love taking pictures.  It’s fun sharing them via a couple of applications. But before I can share them (export) I must first import something worthy of showing.  This is true for life. Before I have anything to say, or anything to “display” there must first be something of significance and truth in me.  Before…
