Today

Moon picture_3448

Today is Monday. It is also Memorial Day. And “today” is the most important day in life. It is the bridge between all the past and all the future—the bud to which the branches lead and in which the blossom of the future waits. As I remember an ambitious friend telling me: “Today is the […]

2011 Spring Recital

Their supportive familys made for an excellent turn out!

Yes, there were sweaty palms and shaking knees but the focus of this recital was to recognize not only the great talent, but also the great character Christ is developing in each student as they learn to play their instrument. It takes patience to play together, it takes thoroughness to get quality tone, and it […]

Stressful times are times to refocus. As in any other situation, our peace, personally, in the end times, will rest on the […]

Blessed with a loving Mother

Skyping with Kendalyn and Aleita in Canada, James in Korea, and Robert and Daniel in Chicago on Mother's Day

As we sang “Count your many blessings” yesterday in church, I could not help but thank the Lord for my mom! Her selfless love to lay a solid biblical foundation by homeschooling is a blessing that we as her children cannot thank her for enough. And now her constant support has encouraged us like nothing […]

National Day of Prayer

Across the nation, each county, city, church, family and individual makes a choice . . .

Yesterday, May 5, was the National Day of Prayer. Two verses the Lord gave were particularly encouraging to me . . . “When it goeth well with the righteous, the city rejoiceth . . .” and “By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted . . .” (Proverbs 11:10-11). Whether it is through […]
