Do You See The Glory?

If you enjoyed the Cone on the Throne, I think you’ll like this one as well.  Not too long ago, Jaxon and I were in Family Christian Store in Cedar Hill, doing a little shopping.  Jaxon decided he needed to use the restroom.  For their public restroom, it’s a small, single multi-gender restroom, on the [...]

There are quite a few scary verses in the Bible.  Here are a few off the top of my head that I would think would have to be considered:
James 3:1
Let not many of you become teachers, my brethren, knowing that as such we will incur a stricter judgment.
Only scary for teachers I guess.
Matt7:23
“And then I [...]

Ever been intensely focused on watching TV, and dropped an M&M on the floor.  So you reach down to pick it up (within 5 seconds), without losing focus, and put it back into your mouth… only to realize what you put in your mouth was not what you dropped?  Me neither.

If you asked 100 people on the street who Lucifer is, you’d probably get about 99 of them responding with, “the devil”. Lucifer is the devil’s real name, right? Like when he was an angel in heaven, everybody called him Lucifer?
Actually, there are some misconceptions, rumors, and myths that Christians believe about the [...]

Being a parent can be frustrating. You tell your kids not to do something, and they do it. So you discipline them. You tell them not to do it again, and they do it again. You discipline them again. You tell them not to do it again. And they [...]

Politics just frustrate me. It’s just a game of lies and blame. The best liars and manipulators are the most successful politicians. The “good” guys, regardless of political party, never make it very far. And corruption runs rampant in our political system with the deep pockets of the lobbyists and special [...]

I was at CiCi’s pizza buffet recently (no jokes please). I won’t name where, but it was not in Waxahachie. I was standing in line to pay at the counter, and in this location, the line extended alongside several tables behind a short wall. I’m just looking around as I’m waiting, and [...]

Just a note that I updated the earlier post with added info about my co-workers.
Mr. India vs Silk Ty

For those of you asking, I wanted to update the status of a friend of mine that was hit in the head with a softball and suffered a fractured skull, referring to this previous Post. Nick was in ICU for a couple days, and was released from the hospital on Thursday. The Dr. [...]

Ross King is one of my favorite people. I guess most would describe him as a worship leader/song writer. While that is very true, I would consider him equally a teacher/preacher. His songs are really Bible lessons. One of may favorite songs he wrote is titled “Go Away”. It’s written [...]

Is there a job or talent that you’ve long desired to have, but know that it’s just never going to happen. For example, say I always dreamed of being a jockey. No matter how badly I wanted it, that’s just something I have to accept is not going to happen. Actually, I [...]

As I wrote in the previsiou entry, Cowboys Don’t Dance, Jaxon was a Sheriff this year for Halloween.  We went to his school fall festival last Saturday afternoon.  He had a lot of fun playing just about every game there, and doing a couple big bounce houses.  He also got into a boxing ring with [...]

Jaxon was invited to a dance recital/Halloween party this past Wednesday night.  One of Jaxon’s female classmates at school is in dancing, and she could invite one friend to take with her to her dance recital/Halloween party… and she asked Jaxon.  We were very proud parents that she would invite him, of all the kids [...]

Why does it always take something bad to make us adjust our priorities?  Why can’t we just be going along well, content, and joyful, and keep our priorities in line?  As I sit here in the Emergency Room waiting room at Baylor in Dallas, I’m reminded of several recent happenings in which God is teaching [...]

That would be a great movie title woudn’t it?  I’m not sure who the favorite would be.  I guess it would depend on what kind of super powers Silk Ty had.  Actually, this entry is about my co-workers.  I have some pretty impressive co-workers, and probably even more impressive if you just compare them to [...]

Just recently, I’ve learned a few lessons that I probably should pass along.

Keep your tools clean - If you let your tools get dirty and rusty, when you try to tighten up an exterior faucet, and the wrench slips and smashes your hand putting a deep gash in it, you will have to get a [...]

I decided to do some research on my one claim to “fame”.  My 2nd year of playing baseball at Howard Payne University, we began the season playing Texas Tech in Lubbock, which was the biggest series of our season.  I started the first game at 1B, and their best pitcher was opening the season for [...]

If you are reading this blog, you’re probably an amateur blog reader. Professionals probably don’t care much about what I have to say. I’ve recently just gotten interested in reading other people’s blogs myself. Of course, a year ago, I never understood why anybody would want to write a blog, OR read [...]

Here’s another video that you may have seen, or at least heard about.

When you become a parent, you see a lot of things differently. This is one of those things. If I had seen this during the first 11 years of our marriage, I probably would have thought, “nice story”, and moved on. [...]

Many of you have probably already seen this youtube video by now of a group called Sonseed singing a song called Jesus Is A Friend of Mine.  If you haven’t, you need to watch it.  It will change your life… most likely.

This video has been shown all over the place recently since it exploded onto [...]
