(ROCKWALL, TX — March 27, 2018) I wonder what song Jesus was singing in His heart while everyone else was singing, “Hosanna! Blessed is He who comes in the Name of the Lord!” It’s a song of expectancy. They’d sung it before, but never to Him. They hoped He would be the One who would […]

(ROCKWALL, TX — March 19, 2018) It’s birthday month. Dear friends, one in heaven, were born this month. Amazingly my children will be 44 years old this month. Can’t be!

(ROCKWALL, TX — March 12, 2018) What does Daylight Saving Time actually save? My body has already asked me that question. We went to bed an hour early Saturday night thinking surely that would reset our internal alarms. All it did was cause me to look at the clock every hour on the hour so […]
(ROCKWALL, TX — March 5, 2018) I was reminded this week of how important it is for us to decide how we are going to respond to bad news before it happens. I guess we should ‘practice’ receiving that dreaded midnight phone call or rehearsing our words as we see the look on the doctor’s […]
(ROCKWALL, TX — March 5, 2018) “Whatcha eating, Dad?” I often asked when we went to lunch at his favorite “Luby’s-style” cafeteria. His answer could be anything from veal parmesan to Salisbury steak. “Wanna try?” He’d ask. “Eeww,” and just like that, I stepped in his trap. In my family if you turned your nose […]
(ROCKWALL, TX — March 5, 2018) The phone rang as I sat proof-reading articles in the office of a Christian monthly in San Antonio.

(ROCKWALL, TX — February 22, 2018) So, what happened to, “April showers bring May flowers”? Or, “March comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb” (or is it vice versa, I’m not sure?). As I’m typing this, February 18th, it’s pouring rain and blowing a gale! Doesn’t the weather know it’s February? […]
