“Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she laughs at the time to come.” Proverbs 31:25 Today is my mother’s 81st birthday! I have been very fortunate to have worked with her these last ten years or so until her retirement in March.

2020-05-19 Just Like My Teen.
“So that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you.” John 15:16b I’m sure many of you have had a teenager in the house. You may have even been one yourself at one time.

2020-05-18 Rest Assured, My Friends!
“Therefore, brothers, be all the more diligent to confirm your calling and election,” 2 Peter 1:10a Last week, I told you how terrified I was as a child when hearing the priest talk about following God’s calling.

It was as if it was trying to prove Jesus wasn’t who he said he was or wasn’t a big deal. The … Continue reading 2020-05-13 JESUS!
2020-05-12 If You Can…
“If you will, you can make me clean.” Luke 5:12 My home church is at the tail end of our chronological bible plan and just beginning the gospels in which Jesus does a lot of his miracles. It’s almost a shame to read through this material as fast as we do because it’s hard to … Continue reading 2020-05-12 If You Can…
