Your significance is measured by the highest standard in existence. God’s love. He created you in His image. And He created you, and gave you this life, on purpose. Your life goes on even after you’re gone from this world. So, your life has meaning. And you won’t fully understand or comprehend it this side of Heaven. But, for now, just know that life … The rest of the story…
What do you believe God couldn’t or wouldn’t help you through? Of course, I mean things that don’t go against His nature and word. Do you think financial problems are out of the question? Family squabbles? Job pressures? With all the people in the world, surely there’s an end to His patience and understanding. Right? Well, yes. And no. He DOES make promises to … The rest of the story…
I read a short article about human suffering. And it reminded me of some old commercials for the headache product you’ve probably heard of. Bufferin. I remember old commercials from back in the days of black and white TV. Yeah, we humans sure want the pain to be gone. Even ALL the pain of the world. C.S.

You might know some bad renters stories. Or you’ve heard some. Right? I could certainly tell you some that come from my time as a handyman. Yikes! It’s awful how awful people can be to someone else’s property. Like the bad renters who took a sledgehammer to the toilets and sinks. Imagine being a landlord who finally gets the bad renters out only to … The rest of the story…
Elias was a carpenter, a building contractor, and a farmer. He moved his family to Kansas City, Missouri way back in the early 1900’s, and gave up the farming part. In Kansas City he bought a paper route and got his sons to help him deliver the papers. And they got to learn to deal with the discomfort and pain that went with that … The rest of the story…
We live in a world gone mad. Mad, I tell you! A world where people will say, with a straight face (inverted pun intended) that there are more than only two genders. And some will go so far as to say there’s really no way to know just how many genders there are. If you say there are only two genders, you’re a hater. … The rest of the story…
As I write this, it’s officially the first day of December. The first day of the last month. And I gotta say, so far so good. I hope it’s off on a high step for you. If you’re not sure yet, I have some words that might help. I saw this quote, by Dr. Seuss, about the first day of December. And being a … The rest of the story…
If you’re a Christian, you know accidents happen. Right? Especially when Jesus, Himself, said they happen. And, by definition, miracles are rare. So, a baby isn’t a miracle. And things DO happen by chance. Again, Jesus, Himself, said they do. If you disagree that accidents happen, this might flip your lid. Here’s a tough one, even for Christians.

Well, tomorrow (as I write this) is THE thankful Thursday of the year here in America. Aka: Thanksgiving. Now, I think that many think that thankful Thursday isn’t theistic thanks. But maybe I’m just thickheaded about it. And maybe it’s just a thoughtless theory. But I don’t think so. (whew, thank goodness I don’t have a writing lithsp…oh no, looks like I do) Anyway… … The rest of the story…
