We reunited with our friend Dawn at the Witness of God’s Creation gathering on our recent trip to Montana. (See also Gene’s articles on “Our Father’s Loving Design”.) She wrote to us a bit of the blessings she received there, and she gave me permission to share them with you. Read and enjoy!

God Hears Us

The Father hears us

Ever talk to a spouse, friend, student, or coworker, and they haven’t heard a word you said. I’ve learned it pays to get people’s attention before I launch into what I want them to hear. God always pays attention to what we say.

Our Grand Midwest Tour: Prosperity

Fertile Fields of Green and Gold

Driving our rented car from Chicago’s Midway airport where Gene and I were joined by sister Cindy, we watched the scenery around us change from the concrete drab of the city to the waving greens and golds of the farmland. At the first stop in our visit to the homeland of my mother’s mother, we joined up with Christine, a second cousin.

Thanksgiving

THANKSGIVING DAY. Today, we are thankful. We all have plenty to be thankful for. We could each most likely go on for hours about all we have to be thankful for. But can we be thankful in ANY circumstance?

I Thessalonians 5:16-18:
Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In every thing give thanks

God source of all 2

I remember as a young child wanting to give my Dad and Mom something for their birthdays or at the holidays. I wanted to express my love  in thankfulness for them being such good parents. Often, since I had no money of my own, they would give me what I needed to buy them a present. They appreciated my heart to give back for all they had done for me.

Trusting in God, Not Man (Part 1)

trust 1

Sometimes it’s pretty easy to trust in people. It is how we were taught since birth. We put our confidence in our Dad and Mom that they will feed, clothe, house, and love us. We trust in our school teachers to give us what we need to know. We even trust our employers to pay us what we’ve agreed upon.

Coaching my son’s soccer team had a great many learning moments for me. One thing that I remember clearly was that each player had their own strengths:
