"For He guards the course of the just…" 

“For He guards the course of the just and protects the way of his faithful ones.” Proverbs 2:8 (NIV)

 It was the late 60s and our family of four, having taken a short vacation, was returning to our home near Tacoma, Washington via Interstate 5 from the south. I vividly remember that it was later in the day and raining ... not uncommon for that part of the country. We had been traveling since early morning and now, just about thirty minutes from home, we were anxious to reach our destination.

 Suddenly…

Amber Alert … for the Christ Child 

The following words were penned by a family friend, Greg Asimakoupoulos. How true! Let us find the Christ Child this year.

____________________________________

 

In this season of red and green,

an Amber Alert has been issued.

A child is missing!

 

He's been removed from his rightful place

and kidnapped by a culture that considers him

politically incorrect.

 

Sadly, not many are searching for him

amid the madness at the mall.

His absence is not on the radar of most.

Shoppers are in search of gifts.

Courage In the Face of the Storm -- One Man's Incredible Journey 

I am very cautious what and who I reference in my posts on this site. But there are those occasions when I am touched and encouraged beyond the norm, and desire to share my "discovery" with you, my friends.

 

Some weeks back I was drawn to the Facebook posts of a man who has a story almost beyond comprehension.


Robert B. Haase is a seminar presenter and promoter, author, speaker and a business marketing consultant in Olympia, Washington. Obviously, his voice and speaking ability are critical to his…

The New Pope Elected, March 13, 2013 

Wednesday, March 13, 2013

  White ‪smoke poured from the chimney fixed to the roof of the Sistine Chapel in Rome. The throngs in the courtyard celebrated jubilantly as bells pealed to announce the news. On this Wednesday of March 13, 2013, Fox News and other media outlets flashed the alert across the screens for millions of their viewers to see: “Habemus papam: We have a new pope.”

 I listened as media pundits expressed their own excitement at this event, one equating it to the “birth of a new child.”…

Diversity in Music Styles -- Gotta Love It! Maybe. 

I had almost forgotten that I actually have a "blog" on this site!  Life has been busy and time for 'blogging' has been limited. So, to reintroduce some content here, I am posting a link to light-hearted YouTube video.

 

With all of the current debate about the musical transition of hymns in today's culture, this presented an interesting and comedic view on the controversy. Ya'll that are familiar with the church hymn "Leaning On the Everlasting Arms" will enjoy this!  I think … :)

PS: You will want to…

Tribute to the American Flag 

Tribute to the American Flag

(Condensed from an internet post by: Kenneth L. Lowmiller of Lawton, OK)

 

The American flag is the greatest national emblem to ever fly over land or sea or in outer space. It is the symbol of visions, of dreams, of the hopes of all who have come to America seeking liberty. To Americans, it is a living symbol, the very soul of our nation which announces who we are, what we believe in, and what we stand for, namely Freedom, Duty, Responsibility, Justice. It represents our…

Bail Out America! 

(Quoting a FaceBook friend, M. Klingenberg:)

 

"Imagining what would happen to our economy if the Federal Government had taken the $1T of bail out dollars that is lost in the wash, and divided it among the 105,480,101 US Households, (2000 Census Numbers) for a $10K share per household.....hmmmmmm????"

 

Whoa.  What I couldn't do with $10K about now ...
