I might be right. Hey, I’ve been right before. Any time you and I disagree on something, there’s the possibility (even if it’s only a tiny one) I might be right. At least from our limited human perspectives that’s true. You might think I’m wrong about something. And I might think your opposite opinion is wrong. But then…there’s the truth. The truth won’t be … The rest of the story…
Backwards and forwards – it’s all so confusing If you’re like most humans…and you are…then you like things to make sense. You don’t like it when life gets all backwards and forwards and discombobulated. (I love that two dollar word) And it makes total sense that you want things to make sense. But why is that? Since we’re all supposed to be here by … The rest of the story…
Don’t trust your heart Let me be clear. I’m not talking about that dark red muscle, in your chest, pumping blood all day and night. When I say don’t trust your heart, I’m talking about your very core. The inner YOU that only God knows.

So, of course, I decided to wallow in my misery and make a list of all the things people better watch out for around me today. Not! No, I started … The rest of the story…
One Day Soon I remember, when I was about five years old, snapping green beans on the porch with my Grandmother in Oklahoma. She would almost always find a way to talk to me about God, Jesus, and time. On this particular day she was making sure I understood how short this life is. She told me, “Don’t take your parents and grandparents for … The rest of the story…
I’ve Got Things To Do I wouldn’t mind stopping all of the wars. I’d be a diplomat, If I could know for sure in my heart That it was simple as that. But peace will have to wait. I can’t just change my life around. I’m in the middle of something That has me helplessly bound. I’ve got things to do. And I’ve got … The rest of the story…
Thinking about thinking Now, there’s a thought for you. Thinking about thinking. That’s what I’ve been doing for the past few minutes because of what I read in a book called “In The Beginning” by Dr. Walt Brown. It’s THE best science book you’ve probably never read. And most so-called “scientists” would never dare to read. Why? Because it presents science with a bias … The rest of the story…
How to identify the more important things in life When you were a kid, did your dad work hard and still come home and play with you? Or spend some other sort of great quality time with you? Mine did.
