It’s the question that stirs anxiety. It’s the “in between time” of the doctor saying, “it could be…” and the doctor saying days later, “the test reveals….” It’s the time delay between taking the test and when the scores are posted. It’s the not-knowing. Our todays are full of unknowns. But are they? Think about …
Today’s God School Christmas Key Word Is, “Ponder”
Google tells us, “To ponder means to think about something very carefully and deeply, often for a significant amount of time, weighing it in your mind as if it had weight, like considering options for a decision or reflecting on life's big questions. It's a more intense form of thinking than just "thinking about it," …

“Peace On Earth, Good Will To Men…”
Peace…what is it? Do you have it? Where can I get it? Peace on earth is part of the Christmas tradition. Google defines “Peace” as, “freedom from disturbance; tranquility,” “a state or period in which there is no war or a war has ended.” But if you examine history, there has not been much peace. …
Christmas Memories…
To some these are “just” Tupperware containers but to me, they hold precious memories of past Christmas seasons. Before Thanksgiving mother would begin her annual candy & cookie production. In the large round container, she would have layers of fudge separated by sheets of wax paper. Each piece was about 1 ½ “ thick and …

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.

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. We must “Search for it like hidden treasure. If you do this, you will understand what it means to respect the Lord, and you will come to …
Looking For Truth?
Truth…it’s getting harder to find. Never in mankind’s history have we had so much information. 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 …
