God is so cool! At the ripe old age of 77 I am still discovering that the truth of “His Ways” are different than my natural ways (Isaah 55:8). I have a natural tendency to speak out…step out and do before asking or thinking. This week one of my dear buddies in Bible Study Fellowship …
Practice For The Purpose
Football practice always started with “warm up drills”, then moved into contact drills (knocking each other down). After that there were the skill sessions of learning plays & moves…learning what to do, when & how. Then it was gut-check time. We would run wind sprints up and down the field. With my tongue hanging out …
“What’s The Answer?”
There I sat…It was the semester test in 9th grade algebra with 10 minutes before the bell and my test paper was almost empty. I didn’t then, nor do I now understand why I need letters to solve a math problem. But here I was. I needed answers. By the time my buddy handed me …
“WHOA Up There!”
I could not find the picture of me on my horse, the Old Mare. Yep, that was her name. I was around 7 when I saddled her up. In the afternoons I would come home from school and ride in the pastures & such. Being young I didn’t know all the horse tricks… like how …

Happy?
The first half of my life I was addicted to being happy. I followed the trail that always led me to “Happy.” While people draw their “happy” from different things, I drew mine from people. I got my “happy” fix cutting up at school …having fun, not the schoolwork. On dad’s farm, when he was …
Accused….
It was the summer after my freshman year in college when my buddy and I worked in Shreveport, Louisiana (158 miles from our home in Hamburg, AR). I was working for Coca Cola as a “helper” on the routes. My job was moving the different drinks from the truck to the store and moving the …
“I’ve Got A Secret!”
The sooner a person learns, “Don’t ask why, just do as you’re told,” in basic training the better. I was the only one in our group told to report to this specific room. When the sergeant shut the door, it was all business. He told us to fill out the forms of everywhere we had …
Nematodes?
It was November 17, 2023, at 3:30 am when I suddenly woke up with a word on my mind. That word was NEMATODES. (God was planting the seed for this message a year later.) Chances are you have no idea what the word means. It’s been over 60 years since I heard the word, nematodes. …
How Do You Respond To Warnings?
Yesterday, I got a green light at the intersection. But the driver in the pickup ignored his red light and flew in front of me. It’s dangerous to ignore signs. Question, do you ignore warning signs? Before you say no…did you know the toothpaste tube has a warning, “Keep out of reach of children under …
