The verse that keeps popping in my mind is: And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, IF we faint not.Galatians 6:9 The ministry is not … More The Ecstasy of His Doings
That’s quite a statement! What would make someone say that? I can’t share my particular difficulties right now, but I do know that there’s not much else that Satan could throw my way that would be more difficult! As I walked down our dirt road, my mind was in a whirl and my heart was … More The Darkest Days of My Life
I’ve been teaching piano lessons now for over forty years, and I’ve had a lot of different students! Some have gone on to college, majoring in music, while others didn’t make it past the first year!

They may not dance, but they sure are beautiful!! … More Dancing in the Sun
The end is near! There’s a meteor ready to crash into the earth and kill us all! The economy is collapsing in October! Last night’s Supermoon/Blood Moon must mean something bad!
