Waves of Change
I learned that a large group of friends and former colleagues were due to lose their jobs at the end of this month. The international company they work for, sold some years back and the new investors have chosen to send a youthful, highly competent, capable, well-trained and dynamic team on early retirement.

Passing On the Batton
This is the toughest time to raise a child or a teen. Have we given thought to how tough it is to be that child or teen, before Christ. How much more after they accept Jesus into their hearts or become baptized? I spent much of today watching and listening to various Christian messages and…

Who am I that you, my Lord and King would die for me? Thank you Lord for loving me, completely and with endless, unwavering joy. Thank you Jesus!
