My Treasure Lies

My treasure lies on angel’s wings,Where His presence rests and cherubs sing.Not where moth and rust destroy, Or in the arms of a girl or boy. My treasure lies upon a lamb slain,In an eternal place where the Son of Man reigns.Not in a bank stored up where thieves steal,Or in a lie that appearsContinueContinue reading “My Treasure Lies”

Is That All You Have?

Let me be the first to say that I detest grocery shopping. From the lines, insufficient registers, and crowds, I could do without all of it. Let’s just say I try to avoid it at all means.

Stronger Than Before

Our oldest son has always been a big guy. When he was born, he was so large that his collarbone was broken during delivery. We couldn’t pick him up under his arms for at least the first 6 months of his life because the bone had to set right in order to heal. So, weContinueContinue reading “Stronger Than Before”

As a teacher, I would always tell students to consider that the further away from home they go to school, the less trips home they’d get to make. Why? Because of the expenses of airfare and other means of travel associated with a longer distance. Being closer to home, would provide them the luxury toContinueContinue reading “Come Back Home”
