Yesterday, an email from Jerry pinged into my inbox. (See, I can talk modern too.) Jerry is a high school classmate, Harlem, Class of ’63. Back in ’05 I attended my first class reunion, or was it ’06. No matter. Surprisingly, several classmates showed up, we met in clusters, here and there, discovered we wanted more time together. Back in that other world, we had been a tight class, maybe because there were so few of us. At any rate, we determined to meet annually. And we di...

And the angel said to Gideon, 'The Lord is with you, mighty warrior!' And Gideon replied, 'If the Lord is with us, why has all this trouble come upon us? Where are all the wonderful deeds our ancestors told us as they spoke of God bringing us out of Egypt?'" Out our way, rodeo is a big sport. While...
Encouragement is much like a stone skipped across the placid waters of a pond, broadcasting ripples from each point of impact. Even after the stone has gently settled into deeper waters the ripples continue to broaden across the glassy veneer, stirring more and more water than what actually came into contact with the stone. That is a picture of how one small act of encouragement can ripple far beyond the original point of contact. Unfortunately, discouragement can have the...

In a moment, that vehicle was behind another car, could have passed, but again, waited until a truck was buzzing toward them in the...
Minutes slip by and so days, but Grief remains so long. A noise is heard; Oh! Are 'they' back? We couldn't be more wrong. Some time ago, a cowboy 'left'; his horse stood by corral gate.

We've seen a few, birds and rabbits, they act like they've been 'fleeced' A kitchen noise - we think of Mom! Can almost smell fresh bread! She was a cook -...
