I don’t know if there is a more challenging test to one’s physical endurance or mental strength than an Ironman race, also known as the triathlon.  This is a 3-event race that takes the better part of an entire day to complete.  The three events include a 2.4 mile swim, a 112 mile bicycle ride, and is capped [...]

If the skies above you are gray, you are feeling so blue,
If your cares and burdens seem great, all the whole day through,
There’s a silver lining that shines in the heavenly land,
Look by faith and see it my friend, trust in His promises grand.
 
(Chorus)

Trust in [...]

As I am sure everyone knows by now, me and my family will be moving to Longview soon as I begin a new career as a therapist in a psychiatric facility in just less than 3 weeks.
 
This weekend while on the road, my wife and I were talking about what kind of things we will and [...]

Well, the eventful weekend was great.  I am going to spend the day recuperating.  I’m exhausted.  After spending Wednesday and Thursday in Longview, taking care of business and preparing for our move (renting storage, getting a post office box, opening bank account, etc), on Friday we went to Dallas to meet the family.  We stayed [...]

I stand amazed in the presence of Jesus the Nazarene,
And wonder how He could love me, a sinner condemned unclean.
(Chorus)
How marvelous! How wonderful! And my song shall ever be:
How marvelous! How wonderful is my Savior’s love for me!
 
For me it was in the garden, He prayed, “Not My will, but Thine.”
He had no tears for [...]

We are reminded in Scripture as to how much damage we can do with our tongues (James 3:5-8).  I know I have done my share of using my tongue as a weapon to hurt people, intentionally as well as unintentionally.  Here is what I find interesting though.  For the most part, with regard to using [...]
