It seems like a couple of my governance comments have hit a nerve with some. Hopefully, though, we can all agree that no form of governance is going to work unless those who govern and those who are governed have the right attitude, are working with God’s Holy Spirit, are…
“God is a covenant God” is a saying I’ve heard from time to time. “God keeps His promises” is another. There is a song by Shannon Wexelberg that I like titled, “All Your Promises Are True”. I liked it so much I purchased the CD, in fact. The question I…
Some of you realize that I think about rainbows a lot. In fact, we will revisit one famous rainbow story in the near future. For now, I want to focus on a different one. Last Friday, there were a lot of storms. Feeling a bit down, I prayed to see…

Well, the end of another day approaches. There were no sales today (that I knew of, anyhow) that marked the occasion. If there were any parades, they were kept sort of quiet. As far as I know, the local school district was in session today. Yet, the mail didn’t run…
