The latter is our “will to awareness.” Then she went on explain that we involuntarily might listen, but we all know that we hear only by intention; she then gave a couple examples in her life, t...
It’s been an interesting year so far! Best understatement you’ve heard lately, huh! Some events occurring in our country right now remind me of certain eras in the history of Israel.

Out our way, the fall roundup is a major event and, as anyone who has worked one will tell you, rounding up the cattle scattered all across the “big open” is a lot of hard work. Now, as it happens, Charlie and I rode for Big Mike. One roundup Charlie was on “Jet” and I was on “Doc” — good cow ponies — but Mike and his boys came out with four wheelers. They covered a lot more territory and moved a great deal faster than we did. In sheer numbers of cattle herded that day, they were far more successful than we were. I recall...
