A Conversation with God 7/28/16 Me: God, I’m so tired. God: Come to me and rest. Me: It’s just this world is getting me down. I’m so tired of hateful, mean-spirited judgement. So tired of the poor being downtrodden so the rich and arrogant can gain. I’m tired of people being mistreated because of the color of…
A Conversation with God 7/27/16
[Me:] God, why can’t puppies be born with bigger bladders? [God:] Puppies have been born for some 65 million years, give or take a million or two, why the need for bigger bladders now?

A Conversation with God 7/26/16
(Many seem to find God elusive, but I talk to Him everyday) [Me:] Lord, will there be front porches in heaven? [God:] Why would you need a front porch? [Me:] Well, it was on a front porch where I first learned to shell butter beans. I remember sitting with mama, shelling beans from a big old metal…
Almost Old
Almost Old A face in the mirror…a companion I see? Almost old…no…it’s just me. A voice screams inside my mind, “Almost old and you can’t stop time!” Almost old…what can I say?

Make America Truly Love Again
Anxiety in the heart of man causes depression, But a good word makes it glad. (Proverbs 12:25 NKJV) When I have my morning coffee, I often read and today I read Proverbs 12:25. Once it was read, I had to stop, because it dawned on me that I didn’t agree with it. True enough, anxiety…

Walking Through Psalms: Focus
When my glasses become smudged, I’m forced to read words through a haze. Many times I’ve taken them off my nose and used my shirt to wipe away the haze; however, it only creates a greater murkiness in which to navigate the letters upon the page. This is frustrating. Why doesn’t the shirt work? Shirts are…
Circus or Church
I enjoy etymology. Etymology is basically the account of the birth and development of a word. I like to say, “All words have a story to tell.” Today’s one-word-prompt is circus, and so I wondered just where this word originated.
