Sunday With Longfellow
Goodness not quite a month ago was Thanksgiving Day. Though it does feel like a long month ago. On that very night on Great American Family the true story of Longfellow’s poem was debuted. Simply called “I Heard The Bells.” This moving film was broadcast with no commercials. This was also the day my parents…

Forgiveness
What does this word mean? The Merriam-Webster Dictionary says, “the act of forgiving.” In the Bible I know there is scripture talking about 70 times 7. It is in Matthew 18:21-22. Those words came to mind once again after this afternoon. All throughout time God has dealt with His people who cannot forgive and forget…

My Church Community
Growing up I saw this community in action. My grandparents, on both sides of my family, were at the forefront of those activities. Seeing their example was the best thing for me and my siblings and cousins to watch through the years. The past couple of weeks have been a bit stressful. Too many things…

DEI Is Dead; The Political Woman
The woman who was vying for the top office in the United States was absolutely a DEI hire. She spewed hateful rhetoric about Donald Trump being Hitler. She and her left arm, the Liberal press were able to fearmonger people into believing there would be no future for America once he won the election. Then…

Sunday Thoughts…
Pastor’s Appreciation Month. Last Sunday we celebrated our Pastor with a pitch in dinner and his favorite hymn songs. That morning I officially broke out my clarinet for a song.

Emotions in Voting

Nature & Creative Juices
A little while ago while I was cooking some cabbage and corn beef I had to take a break. Working on the stove with all of that heat and 2 to 3 people coming and going while Mom was helping me cook was hot. So I asked her if she would watch the cast iron…

Campaigns
Goodness it will be nice to finally have this campaign behind us soon. God-willing the right person gets into office! The ads are tiresome. I know it’s only the advertising of the opposing side that is really frustrating to watch over and over again though not exactly my candidates ads. Hearing the records of his…

Sunday Morning
My last post was Thursday and the pain was a lot for a good round of 36 hours. Plus I had a girl with a headache during the second night. So there were two nights of little to no sleep back to back. On Sunday morning then I had not fully gotten back to my…

The Voices of Americans
Tonight is the debate for the nominees for possible Vice President of both parties. It will be another interesting night on primetime. Too bad we’re stuck with Liberal mediators from a Democrat run platform like all of the others were. Not one of these debates have been friendly for the Republican candidates at all. CNN,…
