reply to a friend

Friend thank you for your question. Yes I do go on. Would you laugh if I told you I thought that was the nutshell? I will try to give you just the nuts or just the shell, not sure which. I describe a few events that are true and have happened to me that are not readily explainable. I attribute them ...

If I feel I should say

I have been sent this list of questions too, some thought I would be amused by it's witticism. I post after Steve has given an appropriate response, that will if view with an open actively engaged mind, see sensibility in the answers found in scripture. This is an alternative (no scriptural referenc...

I am tired of fighting.

Chist has an interesting way of being both in ones face and out of sight. I have had several incidents in my life, that question all my simple answers. I have always accepted there is a God, and that God knows what goes on. In 1963 I swollowed drain-o about 65 miles from a small town hospital, and w...

troubling water

it is more complicated than this and less so too.

I am going to have to go with Steve on this one. Not that it is a vote, not because it makes me rightous, it doesn't. Bankruptcy is a choice made by people in this world about things that go on in this world. Read Luke 12, it seems clear enough what Christ cares for the things of this world. Now as ...

The fall of man

In the beginning, or shortly thereafter, God admonished the first parents not to eat of the fruit of good and evil for on that day they would surely die. We know the story, Eve is tempted and submits, she tempts Adam and he to eats of the fruit. Some versions have the tree named knowledge, but regar...
