We must never forget the beauty that God raises out of pain.  We'd like to, pain is not our friend,  do you like pain?  Likely not, nearly unanimously not, or else you're considered to be mentally unbalanced.  Pain is not liked, learned nor loved, yet God uses pain to bring something we like, teach us and instill deep in our soul love.  Beauty in the form of a lady confined to a wheel chair, but, who's mind explored the cosmos.  She lived, oh how she lived!  She loved,  oh my, how she loved.  She was as fearless as any person I've ever known. She might've been cruelly made to stay in a wheel chair, but her grace, dignity,  joy, majesty and faith, yes, faith; took her places my young soul desired to go, but in my youthful ignorance, could not, would not. She always sought ways to make me think. My young ignorance believing only science, only human knowledge,  she found constant challenges to that, as today, is my stead.  Back th...

 We thank Blue letter online Bible for the study of God's names.  This isn't exhaustive as such, there are many more, but their work allows us a prayer point to pray over each attribute of God.

  “Springhill is growing: … ‘Haphazardly’   “I’m the Governor” ‘John Dutton’ by Kevin Costner   “Yellowstone”    Costner is without any doubt one of America’s primary leading men, awarded, decorated and highly respected, he has become a voice for conservative value- and that’s a tough voice to carry these days.   There are some things about this show that are worth your while, as a viewer, there isn’t much better writing than Taylor Sheridan, his name is on many shows, his skill in portraying how we are, is remarkable.   That being said, the punches don’t get pulled in this presentation, the language and skin time, aren’t held back, but they aren’t in real life either, are they?   Our culture is challenged these days to try and figure out what we’re going to do with what we have, because in America we have a lot.   Dr. John Sullivan many decades back in seminary put it this way, “America’s problem isn’t with want, we have more than what mos...

       There's always someone who knows it better, isn't there?  But sometimes you decide not to argue with them, don't you?  If you're that person, or know someone like that, then this may be your moment to meet a new writer that you can understand, maybe not agree with, but, understand.     That may be a bit freaky to you, maybe you've read some of my stuff before, and it just wasn't catching?  Too technical, too strange, too hard to get?  Most of the people who do read me say things like that, I just never listened- until- last year.  Last year was one of the weirdest for me, ever, not just because it was coming out of Covid- but also because it was watching the world come our of Covid as well.     We've changed, Covid did change us, we can continue to pretend it didn't, but most people sense that very few things, from the coffee shop to the store to shop, are the same.  Our outlook about how things happen, it has ...

When someone tells you to shut up,  they're saying three distinct things: 1.  Your opinion isn't one I want to hear. 2.  Your opinion isn't based on what I accept. 3.  My opinion is better so let me say it. There are more reasons, I'm sure you can add some, but...there's that enormous...but; always bear in mind- after we shut up-  we listen with different ears. In Seminary a lady missed class, all the folks knew she'd need the assignment, but everybody was slightly hesitant to volunteer to take it to  her.  She was the wife of the then chief of Police for the city...guess who finally got volunteered? I'll never, ever forget; going to the door with the papers and being greeted by this sweet lady...with two gigantic Rottweillers'.

Is it possible that we've caught up to ourselves in technology?  Are computers and computer information systems for small rural American communities becoming out of touch because we who contribute to the feeds from those small towns aren't getting savvy about it?  Consider that no matter where in the world a person is getting their feed, they still learn the same way? Because of it's size this may not work...but..we'll try...if you can see the model...it's circular and it begins and ends with a new situation...which...pretty much...you're in now...as you have questions... drd1201@gmail.com Back to Your God is too Small
