Do you know that Christians actually get tired of being Christians? I don’t mean the simplicity of being a child of God, I mean all of the stuff we do that makes us feel like Christians. We get up early to have “quiet times”, faithfully reading the same Bible passages we have read many times […]

Family
I really do enjoy what I do. I love to put together sets of music that will lead people’s hearts and minds to the love of their Father. I love to create things with words, with graphics, and then to translate to a page on the internet viewable by you. I love all of that. […]
Loss
“I came naked from my mother’s womb, and I will be stripped of everything when I die. The LORD gave me everything I had, and the LORD has taken it away. Praise the name of the LORD!” Those were the first words – words of worship – immediately following Job’s hearing the news that his […]
Lenses
All of life is interpreted through lenses… and we are not all wearing the same ones.

A Quick Recounting…
The reason for the large gap in blogging for me has been our amazing schedule the past week. We are always busy, but I guess this past week has been a different busy. Like, not at a computer busy. (I don’t prefer that kind of busy…) ๐ Here’s a quick recap: Starting last Thursday (well, […]
Politics
I don’t usually talk about politics here, because, you know, I don’t really care. ๐ Mostly it’s just a bunch of crazy people who like to be in the spotlight and have a sense of power… lots of lies, or at least twisting and spinning the truth and deception to get there, and even to […]
