In which I hang on and keep going

January 10, 2014

source Really really hard to do anything at all right now. It’s tough, but I’m not the only one it’s tough for. If it’s not tough for you, relish it! If it is, and has been, I get it… I do. So little in life brings me joy in this season. I’ll be frank, virtually […]

In which is thinking and thanking

January 29, 2013

I’ve been patently unsuccessful at writing posts since those 7 days with no sleep. But many of you have still visited and remained good bloggy friends – though I have failed. I think I’m turning a corner. But I’ve thought that way before. Still, it’s “I think I can, I think I can.” But as […]

In which I know some really nice people

In which there is vocabulary

January 3, 2013

In which is no proof

December 28, 2012

  source The skeptic criticized me for saying… “I believe. I have faith. We have no proof of the existence of God. We believe. We don’t know. We can’t prove.” He thought this meant that my faith was weak. My faith isn’t weak. It’s the strongest thing I possess. This is part of my series […]

In which there is reason to do good

December 10, 2012

source So why do we do good instead of not good? During my discussions with the skeptic, which began here, he mentioned that the reason for doing good is reward in heaven. I don’t like the idea of doing good things for reward. I mean, there is reward in heaven, but it doesn’t seem like […]

In which I am at the top of the heap

December 2, 2012

source Once, when I was an arrogant man at the beginning of this whole Christian thing, I read these words of Paul and I didn’t get them. This saying is trustworthy and deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners. Of these I am the foremost. (1Tim 1:15) I had heard […]
