Why In The World Am I Here?

This seems to be a question that has been asked by many for many years. Sometimes when things are not going well or sickness has invaded our domain or life just seems to turn up the heat, dejectedly some ask the question, "why in the world am I here?" Whether you have ever asked that question or... Sign in to see full entry.

Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?

Right! I wish I could help you with that but I can't. I can only dream of who and how many I could help if I came into such a $um. Athletes are thrown millions each year like candy being thrown from a float in a Christmas parade. For instance a few days ago a star baseball player was given an $180... Sign in to see full entry.

Good news...

"I took my troubles to the Lord; I cried out to Him, and He answered my prayer." (Psalm 120:1 NLT) Sounds simple, huh? The Lord never makes coming to Him for any reason difficult. NEVER! I can remember a time when it was difficult for me to approach my banker when I needed to borrow money. Although... Sign in to see full entry.

His Name is Wonderful...

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The Mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. (Isa 9:6) This is such a beautiful passage of scripture with a few examples of what... Sign in to see full entry.

Who Cares?

Ever felt alone? Forsaken? Ever had the attitude, "who cares?" If you answered Yes, You are not alone. There are times that we may feel that way, and it is not a good feeling. Not everyone who says that they are your friends will be there when the chips are down. Sometimes you can't count on the... Sign in to see full entry.

Beautiful lights and sounds of the season

I have enjoyed riding around our small Central Texas town and looking at the lights and hearing the Christmas carols as they are played, and seeing all the other creative decorations that different ones have made. The lights are beautiful and bright and even a small amount of lights shine and dispel... Sign in to see full entry.

Let the SONshine In

It is a beautiful, chilling Sunday morning here in Texas! The sun is trying its best to break through the clouds so as to burn off the morning chill. I am not a cold weather type person, but it is winter and the temperatures are suppose to be colder than in the other three seasons of the year. One... Sign in to see full entry.

Who's Coming To Town??

At this time of the year, Christmas carols can be heard in the mall, the supermarket, and most retailers in an attempt to ramp up for the Christmas season. The more people are into the holiday spirit the more it will drive sales up. There are still a few places that carolers will go through the... Sign in to see full entry.

12th Day of Christmas

On the twelfth day of Christmas Jesus gave to me: eternity to praise, a thousand tongues to sing, streets of pure gold, mansions above, a robe and a crown, a body glorified, power from on high, joy for my soul, love for all men, peace in my heart, everlasting life, and salvation full and free. My... Sign in to see full entry.
