People Power - a Force to be Reckoned with

Lately we've seen Positive People Power in action. In the USA, with immigrants having a say; in Nepal and in the Solomon Islands. Everywhere people are beginning to take back some control and have a say in the way life should be. This is the way of the 21st century.There will never be a better time to shape our present and our future - with a united spirit and positive ideas.

From Contentious To Content

I know from personal experience that these suggestions work!

Go to the Ant

This tiny creature teaches mammoth lessons. Is it possible the ant is wiser than humans?

Now Do It!

Procrastination robs from others as well as ourselves. It robs them of the good we could have done for them, and robs us of self-respect.

Wings or Crutches

The birds complained bitterly when God placed wings on their backs. God told them to wait a week. Then they discovered they could fly. What they thought was an unnecessary burden became their joy!

What Are You Willing to Give Me?

The biggest sell-out in history!

Two Mothers and Two Broken Hearts

In the end, beginning and middle, life comes down to mothers and fathers and children ~ and love and faithfulness and hope.

Check, Recheck and Doublecheck

Faith is the knowing that God is good and just and holy; the feeling of doubt creeps in when the circumstances just don't fit.

Rattle Those Funny Bones!

My personal daily shot in the funny bone is Lynn Johnston's For Better or for Worse. God bless her for her painkiller insight on family life.

Be Kind to the Kin

Loving someone is sometimes the easy part; it is the living with someone that turns our heart into sour mash that becomes bitter and unpalatable.

Joy Is Peace

The only contrariness here is those of us who proclaim Jesus as Lord and then walk around, down in sole and soul.

The Prodigal Brother

The prodigal brother is quite an obnoxious fellow. He's the one most like ourselves!

The Bee Stings of Life

We expect to conquer the mountains in life and we are brought down by bee stings.

Accountability

There is a law of accountability that presupposes obligations to our brothers and sisters, for we are not islands unto ourselves.

For Shame!

When I see and hear what is going on in this world, I marvel that God has waited so long to clean our clocks.
