Billy Graham What a great question. What are you doing to prepare for your last day on earth? What kind of legacy will you leave behind? I don’t know about you, but this sure makes me think! “All people are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field; the grassContinue reading “TICK, TICK, TICK”

New Year’s Resolutions
New Year’s Resolutions Many of us make New Year’s resolutions every year. We resolve to lose weight, eat healthier, exercise more, keep our house and office clean, and be kinder to family and friends. People make all different types of resolutions, intending to keep them.

Praise the Lord!
What has he done for you? This verse is asking us to share the great things he has done. I’ll start, with a shortened version of my miracle girl. When my daughter Kristan was only 8 1/2 months old, she had a routine ear, eye, nose, and throat infection. A normal infection for a child,Continue reading “Praise the Lord!”

God came to earth humbly, as the child of a carpenter. Not the son of a king, born in a palace, but the son of God, born inContinue reading “Thank God!”
