Separation of Church and State
I am of the age where I can remember prayer in public schools. I also remember the outrage over the Supreme Court decision in 1962 that out-lawed prayer in public school. I also remember how Madalyn Murray O’Hair, the woman who led the fight to remove prayer, was vilified. I learned a lesson a longContinue reading “Separation of Church and State”
Battling Lethargy
It’s strange to feel the way that I do today. It’s been over 17 months since the beginning of the Covid 19 pandemic. We have made great strides in dealing with this virus. More and more people are being vaccinated and life seems to be returning to normal. And yet in some ways it isn’t.Continue reading “Battling Lethargy”
A Few Question to Ask Yourself; I know Jesus Will
How much is God’s heart becoming my heart? Or said another way; “how much have I become like Jesus.” It’s a good question. Another way to ask that question is to ask; “where I spend my time and my money?” A third way is; “what am I passionate about?” What gets me excited in lifeContinue reading “A Few Question to Ask Yourself; I know Jesus Will”
“The Joy of Knowing Little”
Jesus once said, actually He said it over and over again but that is for another blog, “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.” What He means for us to understand is that we know so very little and we should rejoice in knowing that we know little. ThereContinue reading ““The Joy of Knowing Little””
Forgetting What is Behind and Pressing On
I haven’t been on this page for a while. I actually took a two week vacation and it was great, but it’s good to be back with all of you who follow this blog. We spend a lot of time making memories. Our phones, facebook, and our instagram accounts are filled with pictures. We spendContinue reading “Forgetting What is Behind and Pressing On”
Separation of Church and State
Without giving away my age, I remember when prayer was taken out of public schools. Oh, the anger that was in the churches. It was going to be the demise of our country. One of the things that people didn’t consider in those days was what would a future of prayer in public schools mightContinue reading “Separation of Church and State”
A Little Follow Up
In my last post where I wrote about what we see depends on where we look. How we hear Jesus’ words depends on where we start; on your perspective. I have learned to start at the cross, looking up. From that perspective I see a God who so loves us that He came to thisContinue reading “A Little Follow Up”
It Depends on Where You Look
If I look to the west when the sun is rising I miss the beauty of a new day. If I look to the east at sunset I will miss the grandeur that is often there as the sun is setting. So often how I see life depends on where I am looking. We haveContinue reading “It Depends on Where You Look”
Knowing the End Results
Am sitting here watching a tennis match at the French Open, but it was played hours earlier and I already know the results. It’s a mixed bag of emotions. I know that Madison Keys (the American) loses the match so I am disappointed. On the other hand there is no stress as I watch. IContinue reading “Knowing the End Results”
Remembering
Remembering is an acquired skill, or I should say remembering the right things is an acquired skill. All too often we fail in the trap of remembering the wrong things. Tomorrow our nation will remember those who gave the last full measure of their devotion to their country. These are men and women who gaveContinue reading “Remembering”
