There is just no pleasing some people. And by “some people,” I mean my family. My brothers and sisters showed up this weekend to help me get a few little projects done around the house. While they sawed, sanded, scraped and painted, I cooked. Their compliments of my cooking ranged from “That wasn’t too disgusting” to “At least he’s trying.” High praise indeed, if you had heard what they said the last time I cooked for them. This time, I found some canned peaches Sue had put up; I stretched my abilities and made a pie for...

SEASONS Cedar Waxwings cleaned Mountain Ash! The berries are all gone. That flock of birds gobbled them up, few berries hit the lawn. These little birds are harbingers, they know snow’s ON the way! The sun does set, t’will rise again; berries and ‘nights’ don’t’ stay. Seasons mark change, the birds fly South; we’ll see sunrise again. We say ‘good-by’ to numerous ‘things’, but God knows how and when. Though we do grieve, our pain is real, this parting doesn’t last. Your word says so, You’ll wipe our eyes, the ‘OLD’ will soon b...
You know, Lord, an unnamed writer wrote that he had learned it was a good idea, a good practice, to write down the names of the person for whom he prayed. He had a closet in his study where he kept a little prayer desk that his mother had given him many years ago. In that special desk he kept a book, sacred to him, where he wrote each person’s name and each person’s need, for whom he prayed. Endeavoring to make his prayers more meaningful, after each name recorded, he also entered a specific need. This way he had at his fin...

Mark 10:17-27 Out our way, folks say there's no of question of whether or not you will ever get thrown from a horse, only when. For some of us - especially when learning to ride - it happens with alarming regularity. In my case, even with years of saddle time, it is nearly a daily occurence. Poor old Goliath just rolls his eyes and sighs every time it happens, because he is really a good-hearted soul who doesn't buck, rarely kicks, and although a bit of a stumble - klutz on...
As we are nearing the Christmas holiday, I am reminded that this a time that a lot of people become so busy that things are forgotten that help us stay grounded. As the crazy busyness of the season starts for us here at The Salvation Army, it is a good time to really focus on my relationship with Christ. The first verse that comes to mind is “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” Philippians 4:13. As we frantically line up bell ringers, collect Giving Tree toys, getting people that want to adopt a fam...
