On 1 January 2026, I learned that a former elder and one of the best people God ever put on this earth (Mr. Sam Cooper) had passed away. Shortly after, I learned that a fellow military veteran and very good friend lost both parents in a car accident. This doesn't seem like a great start [...]

We Gotta Work for It
Ain’t nothing in life free. No matter what it is, it costs something. Even if it is only a decision, effort, or energy needed to achieve or obtain it. The same goes for life, better life through better health, quality of life, and eternal life through salvation. It ain’t free. We have to do something. [...]
Only the Father Knows
Continually, we hear people say the world is coming to an end or the end is near based on incidents that occur like fires, floods, hurricanes, shootings, tornados, even wars. Yes, every day is a day closer, but so misunderstood is Matthew 24: 4-8 which says, “Jesus told them, “Don’t let anyone mislead you, for [...]
Wake Up, Get Up, and Show Up
One Sunday morning, I lay in bed asking God to put it on the hearts of man to arise and come worship the Lord. I would love to see more and more people recognize and acknowledge God and what He has done for us. There is so much to be thankful for and no better [...]
I Belong Here
Many of us have feelings of guilt, inadequacy, being unwanted, lost, alone, helplessness, or hopelessness. These are all lies from the devil. But that’s where he wants us and if we stay in that mindset, we are easy pickings. Our light will become very dim, and we’ll be drawn into darkness. We don’t belong here [...]
Here We Go!!!!!!!!!
I have a sister who loves the Dallas Cowboys, actually a whole family. But she gets tickled when, during the play, the quarterback yells, “Here we go!!!!!!!“ Unfortunately for the Cowboys, their trips to the playoffs have been cut considerably short in recent years. I do not know if they are driving electric cars or [...]
Oh God!
Father in Heaven, how great is Your name? How wonderful is the love You have for us? Lord, I offer this prayer, that will hopefully touch the souls of all who can hear my voice or see these words. Oh God, I offer this prayer to You, on their behalf. Father, I lift up those [...]
Grace Was Born on Christmas
Early one morning, I lay in bed recounting some of my past sins, too numerous to remember them all, and asking for forgiveness. I’m sure I just scrapped the surface and it made me realize just how sinful life can be. It hurt to realize how much I hurt God and others. Asking for and [...]
Ask, Seek, Knock
The best way to get close to someone is to spend time with them. It is no different when trying to get closer to our God and Father. He made it easy and even showed us the way, but we make it difficult to accomplish. Why? We all want joy in our lives and we [...]
VOTE!
I usually don’t post or comment on politics, but this time is too important, even critical, for me not to do so. As election day approaches, let us be prayerful in our choices to lead our government. Liking someone isn’t a reason, nor is not liking someone. We should vote for the candidate that is [...]
