Note: I had the School Board vote date wrong yesterday–it has been postponed until the 12th. Keep praying.

One of the great joys of my life now is watching our little granddaughter explore the world.  As an adorable 20 month old, she is showing me anew what today’s Daily Vitamin means, that of being a new creature, dependent, yet displaying her free will as she becomes part of the world around her.  From It’s a God Thing! page 145:  “Once…..

This morning’s worship time was enhanced because of the encouragement of several of our church members who conversed with me. Two told me they had written reviews for It’s a God Thing! on the Amazon site. They are amazing, and so welcome. Another told me he wants me to publish the promised Jobs Loss book because he’s going through the experience of recent forced retirement.  He also told me he’s enjoyed reading my blog. That was an encouragement. Then, the…..
