Who’s afraid of a little extra heat? I’ve shared, a few times, how God promises that as long as the earth is around we’ll have our regular kinds of weather. And now I wanna share a video with you about some animals that got stuck in the ice and froze right where they were because it was so cold. The man in the video … The rest of the story…
The road to perdition is paved with nothing. And as silly as that sounds, most people on our little blue planet believe it’s the right road. And they’ll even say it out loud. With conviction. And sometimes indignation. I found this definition, in an online dictionary, for perdition: (in Christian theology) a state of eternal punishment and damnation into which a sinful and unrepentant … The rest of the story…
Imagine directing a film version of The Ten Commandments. And including a scene, from the Bible, where God parted the Red Sea. OK. Now imagine directing that movie in 1923. When there was no such thing as a green screen, motion capture suits, or digital editing. What an incredible undertaking that would be. And it seems like a director might look for easier projects … The rest of the story…
“the poor will never cease from the land.” Wow, that’s a pretty negative quote. Sounds like somebody who just doesn’t have foresight. Definitely not a visionary. Not like one entrepreneur I’m connected with in a business network. I just saw a post of his where he said his purpose is to “end poverty.” So, he obviously doesn’t believe the poor will never cease from … The rest of the story…
My love for letters and words began long before my first day of school. Many of my earliest memories are of my Grandmother and my Mom reading stories and the Sunday “funnies” to me. And I think the word pictures from those stories and comic strips led, in part, to my lifelong habits of observation. Here’s how I see it (pun slightly intended) observation … The rest of the story…
I don’t know this, personally. But “inside sources” say Bruce Willis, Emma Stone, David Beckham, Drew Barrymore, and Harrison Ford all have this in common. Not just the fact that they’re all “celebrities.” But they all have green eyes. Someone else, with much higher celebrity status, has green eyes. Elgielene. (pronounced el juh lean) For the neglected percentage of the population who don’t know, … The rest of the story…
When you get right down to it, it’s pretty easy to brew up a good batch of anger issues. Right? Yeah, pretty much anyone can do it. With one arm tied behind ’em. And since that’s true, think about honeybees. “Huh? Honeybees and anger issues?” Honeybees build waxy honeycombs. And that’s where they store their larvae and the nectar they gather from flowers. Honeycomb cells are … The rest of the story…
OK, so I’m gonna preach a little bit. So, if you’d rather not subject yourself to that, fair warning. Close your eyes, ears, email, or computer and move on. If you’re still here, here I go. You’ve seen ’em. On TV. And on the internet. Those guys who lay their healing hands on people and miraculously heal them. You’ve seen ’em. Right? And you … The rest of the story…
Have you ever paid attention to the focus factor of a mother bird on her nest? It’s a wonderment. Because birds tend to move around. A lot. And super fast. But when the mother bird is on her nest, she can be so still you almost can’t see her. I know, because there’s a small mother cardinal in a very small nest up inside … The rest of the story…
Recently, I heard somebody say “It’s hard to tell the good guys from the bad guys.” And I thought to myself, “Then, you only have bad guys.” Because “good guys” don’t happen by accident. Matter of fact, there really aren’t ANY good guys. Allow me to explain… Do you know the difference between good guys and bad guys? Is it the hat they wear? … The rest of the story…
