It’s Sunday and Monday morning is coming. The alarm will go off, and you will hit the floor running. After the chaos of everyone getting dressed & off to school and work, you stop at the drive-thru to get your daily caffeine push with a “Blondie” brew. You come through the doors at work like …

Hands That…
Little boys find things to do. I was around 5 years old when we lived on the farm. Our house was about 50 to 75 yards from the shop. In between the house and the shop was a pasture where I played dodge the patties. On this morning dad and the men had been repairing …
How Much Can You Carry?
Early spring always brought trailers loaded with seed and fertilizer. Hopefully, the trucks arrived in the cool of the morning We didn’t have forklifts to unload the truck; we had Robert and the other men at the farm. I liked the seed delivery better because of the smaller 30-pound bags. Fertilizer came in 65- & …
“Az mir daf schlogen a hunt, canst funnen a schtekl.”
It is incredible how God works! Over 25 years ago, while on a late-night flight I had an incredible conversation with an elderly Jewish man. He was full of “people wisdom.” He gave me a piece of wisdom that has been carried with me until this day. He summed up his thoughts on dealing with …

Are You Close Enough?
God is fascinating. One thing I have learned through Bible study is God leaves His fingerprints wherever He goes… but you can’t see His fingerprints flying through life.

And now with AI, it is next to impossible to determine if what we see or read is true and real or something that has been manufactured. Not knowing creates uncertainty & anxiety. Uncertain & anxious is exactly how I …
Stuck!
This is a familiar situation on a rice farm at harvest. The field is soft from standing in water most of the summer. Many fields have soft spots. As a young lad growing up on my dad’s rice farm, I stuck a few tractors. But never like this. Never! Dad didn’t find anything funny about …
Needs Or Wants
Saturday, we celebrated our family Thanksgiving with incredible food, laughter, family pictures, and conversations about Christmas. I was sitting beside our 8-year-old granddaughter as she searched Amazon on Meme’s phone for her Christmas wish list. Not much has changed in 70 years except when I was her age, we used the Sears catalog. We would …
Ready?
I’ve never told this deer hunting story before, but this is what I looked like 60 years ago. It was early one morning, and I had walked about ½ mile into the woods. It found the perfect deer stand, a big tree on a mound. After standing in the cold and seeing nothing I decided …
The Power In The Name
Very soon the world will be singing Christmas Carols. Many of them will have Old Testament names for Jesus such as the ones found in Isaiah, “Wonderful, Counselor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, and The Prince of Peace.” But there is so much more behind this. Did you know that “the phrase "in the …
