Burning Desires...


“If you're bored with life, if you don't get up every morning with a burning desire to do things, you don't have enough goals.”
Lou Holtz

I thought of this quote when seeing this scene the other morning.

Oh!! What a glorious site! And, no-- the barn wasn't on fire!

Every Day is Thanksgiving



with the approach of our national day of Thanksgiving- I realize that every day I'm thankful.

  • For a Loving Father who provided in the past a Savior.
  • For the Savior who was willing to make the sacrifice on my unworthy behalf.
  • For the Holy Spirit who convicted me to take Him at His word and Believe that His work was enough to forgive mine.
  • For a family that Believes and teaches that to others.
  • For friends that Believe.
  • For a Country that was founded on those principles of Belief.
  • For my birthplace and home in that same country- the Land of the Free & the Brave, the land of plenty, and the land where I am free to worship Him.
I have grown to realize that where God put me is exactly where I need to be in spite of my yearnings to see and be other places. I call it being content with His provision... and Oh! What a marvelous place it is. It's not necessarily a geographic location but rather a spiritual one.

Praising God for His Blessings this morning and all month... this year... this life.
