Juneteenth isn’t just for African-Americans
This past Friday, Juneteenth was celebrated in this country. A few states consider it a holiday, most do not. June 19, 1865 is the day when the Civil War ended, and slaves were freed. This isn’t a day that should be celebrated just by African-Americans, all Americans should celebrate. This is the date that ended an ugly part of America’s history and declared that all people were truly free and equal. I believe this should …
A Perfect Storm
First there was the pandemic, now the protests. It seems like everything worked perfectly for a bunch of homegrown-terrorists to take over a city in America. And takeover Seattle they did, complete with automatic weapons. Business owners are being extorted for protection, lives are being threatened, and the leaders of the city could care less. When did this become patriotic or even sane? I have no problem with protests. In fact, Jacksonville showed the country …
Too Much Hate
Too Much Hate There is too much hate today. We’ve become a world of finger pointers and hate mongers. The following quote from Martin Luther King, Jr. says it better than anything I could put into words. Please feel free to share it.
Yes and No
YES, what happened to George Floyd was murder. The officer should be punished; YES, the Chief of Police in Minneapolis should be removed for allowing an officer with eighteen complaints to continue to work in the field instead of sitting on a desk job; YES, there is nothing wrong with protesting. It is a good way to get your point across; YES, marching is protesting; speech is protesting; even blocking traffic can be considered protesting; …
In Flanders Fields
Memorial Day is a day of remembering those who died in the line of duty, protecting this country. The poem In Flanders Fields, written by John McCrae, was published on May 3, 1915. I hope it helps you to remember those we have lost. In Flanders Fields By John McCrae In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, …
Biblical Women Who had God’s Hand
There are few books in the Bible that are named for a woman. However, that doesn’t mean God doesn’t love his daughters. In fact, He loves us very much. And while there may not be a lot of books of the Bible named for women, there were women in the Bible who definitely had God guiding them. This week let’s look at three women who knew God’s love and strength. MARY MAGDELINE: After He rose …

I Can’t Wait!
We all wish for something, i.e. getting out of debt, a new car, etc. I have dreams and wishes galore. Basically, if wishes were fishes, I’d have a boat load. My biggest want right now is I’d love to retire so I can write full-time. Unfortunately, that’s not going to occur any time soon. A lot of people have goals that don’t always pan out. We just have to remember that God will work His …
