You and everyone else must be ready.

Fake News
Matthew 28:11-15 Now when they were going, behold, some of the watch came into the city, and shewed unto the chief priests all the things that were done. And when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers, Saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night, and stole him away while we slept. And if this come to the governor's ears, we will persuade him, and...Continue Reading...
Personal Chauffeur
When I was leaving the doctor's office the other day and walking into the parking lot, a lady and I were about to cross paths. Since I always have tracts in my pocket or in my hands, I said, “Did you get one of these?" She told me she had not. So I gave her one and let her know it was a gospel tract. Then she walked on. As I was standing by my...Continue Reading...
Steel
One thing I like is a person with a strong backbone. A backbone of steel. People like that have always intrigued me. They know what they believe, and they stand up for it. But it is more than just that. The key is when the headwinds come, when people start critiquing them, will they hold their ground or will they cave in to the whims of the masses? I saw this article the other day,...Continue Reading...
Waco
April 19th of this year marks the 25th anniversary of the Branch Davidian incident in Waco, TX. Now, as you read that sentence, does anyone feel old?! Goodness, twenty five years have gone fast! Psalm 144:4 “Man is like to vanity: his days are as a shadow that passeth away.†Psalm 39:11 “When thou with rebukes dost correct man for iniquity, thou makest his beauty to consume away like a moth: surely every man is...Continue Reading...
“Thanks for Putting My Feet to the Fire”
A few weeks ago, I celebrated another birthday. Yes, I know what you are thinking. Only a little over 10,000 of you forgot about it! No worries. I am not holding grudges today, but today only!     One of my buddies, Dave, wanted to take me out to eat. Hmmm. Food. On my birthday? Hmmm. Easiest decision of my life!     So, Dave chose a good restaurant that he wanted to go to. Now, I...Continue Reading...
Lads Need Dads
More than 20 million children live in a home without the physical presence of a father. Millions more have dads who are physically present, but emotionally absent. If it were classified as a disease, fatherlessness would be an epidemic worthy of attention as a national emergency. The impact of fatherlessness can be seen in our homes, schools, hospitals, and prisons, as reflected in the clip [below] from the documentary film, Irreplaceable. In short, fatherlessness is associated with...Continue Reading...
True Freedom
I happen to like the sound of that word Freedom! There is just something about it. When I see the flag rippling in the wind, it reminds me of the great nation we have. Sure seems like the founding fathers had a lofty and noble goal in mind when they wrote the founding documents. Here are a couple of things you might not know about the Declaration of Independence: https://www.constitutionfacts.com/us-declaration-of-independence/fourth-of-july/ And here is a quote from the...Continue Reading...
Modern Educayshun
Looks like it is that time of year again when students start heading back to schools and colleges. Where did summer go?! I saw this video on the internet the other day, and I wanted to pass it along to you. It is only seven minutes long. I will make some comments about it below. Enjoy, or maybe not enjoy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKcWu0tsiZM I am so glad I am not in school anymore! Now I am still...Continue Reading...
Disinformation
It sure seems like deception is all around us these days. The reason we sometimes think that way is because it is literally everywhere! William Casey, the CIA Director under President Ronald Reagan for six years, became famous for a certain quote, which was his response to a question he was asked by the President. Here is the background of his legendary quote: “As he did to all the other secretaries of their departments and...Continue Reading...
Subliminal Skye
   I went to the other side of town for something the other day. I had heard of a good vegan restaurant over there, so I wanted to check it out. Now, one thing I know for sure is there are some very interesting people in vegan restaurants!! You have to realize that is a fact of life. You meet all kinds there, so it is always fun to go and see who you...Continue Reading...
Thankful (2018)
   Thankfulness is one of the great privileges of Christianity. A thankful spirit and a grateful heart should be the everyday walk for men and women of God. If thankfulness is not part of your life, then it’s probably time for a spiritual checkup. I’ll tell you what I am thankful for, but I am going to take a weird turn before I get there! An event was held recently at Texas Motor Speedway...Continue Reading...
Sushi for 8
     As we move from the Thanksgiving holiday to the season of Christmas and the celebrating of God's gift, His Son, giving to others comes into focus for the world. However, giving should just be a part of who we are as Christians throughout the year. It should be how we go about our daily lives.     Recently, I was sitting in a restaurant, and nobody else was in my section! I hate that. No one...Continue Reading...
