Snowpocolypse Postlude
“I wish it would snow.” How many times have you said that? Clearly, we had no idea what we were asking. We were Israelites and we got boatloads of quail. “How are the roads?” It’s the most often asked question since “Who shot J.R.?” And the...
Baby Escapes on Moving Sidewalk
Mom’s hands are full. She’s speed-walking to her airport gate with a ten-year-old, a two-year-old, a stroller, and a backpack. Big girl jumps on the moving sidewalk as the toddler squeals “Me too!” Now big sis is several yards ahead as Mom picks up the baby, and...
The Easy Sin?
“Did you hear what she said?” “He is so self-absorbed.” “I can’t believe what she’s wearing.” We’re very skilled at criticism. It’s our nature. A good way to measure our self-esteem would be to record ourselves and see how frequently we talk about those with whom...
Take This Job and Love It!
There was a guy at GM Shreveport in the 80’s who thought it was funny to come up behind me and yell “WHUT’RE YOO DOIN’?” I hated that guy. I know that’s wrong. I now simply recall him with some disdain, knowing God loves him and I should too. Conveniently, I...

Seize the Day
Give me a song over a fight. Enough darkness, give me Light. Is there a way to make things right? I’m sure trying with all my might. But left to myself I’m oh such a mess. Inconsistent, maybe? I guess? Too much of me, I must confess. More love for you, for...
Look! There’s God Again!
You may feel alone, unworthy, devastated, or frustrated. Maybe you’re in mourning. You may find yourself in indescribable pain. We all have struggles, but perhaps you feel like you get more than your fair share. Isn’t it comforting to know? Even if you’re not sure...
My Christmas Wife
I love her all the time, but OH. MY. GOSH. Come November, it’s on. By Thanksgiving weekend we have more lights, poinsettias, mangers, Santas, snowmen, wreaths, tinsel, holly, and ornaments than anywhere south of the Arctic circle. Most people slow down, lay back,...
