The president officially pardoned the turkey again this year, but really, a is that all about? Isn’t it weird to project a sense of humanity onto the animal we traditionally eat this holiday? Still, year after year, presidents have been issuing official pardons to turkeys that haven’t done a dang thing wrong. Shouldn’t it be called a stay of execution?

Out our way, the end of the roundup when we shipped Big Mike's herd east to the feedlots was always a special day. The roundup itself was a long and sometimes difficult process, but when the last cow was run up the chute into the cattle truck and the door was shut, it felt good. Mission accomplished! From calving season in below zero temperatures, through those long hard days of loading, hauling. And unloading feed to the snow and permafrost-covered pastures where grazing was...
You know, Lord, when it seems that there's no hope, things aren't going according to our plans, or maybe just going askew, it's then that we must remember that You are faithful, You hear our prayers and intervene in Your way, Your time and at the right time. We've known "children," young or old, who've strayed far away from having a personal relationship with You.
