Wow! What A Sunday!
The Lord truly… works… in mysterious ways. Today was a culmination of literally about 9 months of signs from God to wake me up. The amount of intricate working the Lord does in one’s heart and mind for His glory is incredible. Honestly… I am still digesting the events of my day. Yesterday was a…

August Letters
Funny how I get started on something and then something even bigger comes out of it. When I originally started this topic of American Letters, different ideas came to mind. I didn’t realize how many ways I could loosely use the term letter. It can mean a text, letter or card. On a bit of…

Please don’t let friends pick up belts that aren’t belts is one of the greater lessons learned from this experience. Once I had settled down… well I wasn’t settled down completely. Mom actually stayed in my room while I took a short bath to clean up for a while anyway. If I hadn’t had my…

Lahaina, HI: Government Versus Americans
