Times Really Does Fly!
Today is my 65th birthday. While many people think of that as retirement age, retirement has never crossed my mind. In fact, I’m more ambitious now than I have ever been.

The Thief
There has been a robbery! But not to worry. What was stolen can be regained. The thief is comparison. Comparison robs us of our identity when we start looking at our current standings versus others.

Grateful…
This morning I woke up with an overwhelming amount of gratitude. I’m grateful every day, but even more so today. Last night I had a car wreck that could have ended my life and the lives of the young men who hit me. All of us are pretty banged up, but we will heal physically. God protected us, no doubt. He’s not finished with us, and I am forever grateful to Him…
