Wisdom School

We had a party at our house for three grandkids who graduated from High School today. I gave a short devotional to them during the party, and to all family members and friends who were there. Here …

Sufferings

My wife Patty has been having a lot of pain in her hip. She walks with a walker, limping around, grimacing the whole time. I pray for her all day long, especially when I see her in so much obvious pain. Many other people are praying for her as well. God has chosen not to heal Patty up to this point, and He may never heal her....

Someone Pushed my Button

Things happen, and people's words make me feel anger and resentment. I can’t stop that emotional response, but I can learn to keep the emotion from lasting very long or from controlling my thinking and behavior. When we let the emotion of anger or resentment stay with us, we allow our thinking to go round and round, replaying the event or words that caused it, and we become less and less in control of our own lives....

Slowing Down

Several things have gradually changed in me as I have gotten older. Some good and others not so good. The change that irritates me the most is my indecisiveness. I used to think through situations quickly, make a decision, and go to work to carry it out. Even though I made decisions quickly, I rarely made a bad one. I wasn’t paralyzed by a fear of making a wrong choice or of failing....

My Pickup Camper

I am building a camper for my Ford F-150. I have been looking at campers for the last year to buy, but they were too expensive and too heavy. So I bought some plans from the same company that I buy boat plans from. They build everything using lightweight plywood and fiberglass. I worked on it all day today and got most of the roof fiberglassed....

I Am Right

As I grew up on the farm, I used to argue with my Dad a lot. My Dad was a very wise man, and I have no clue why I felt the need to be right about some of the most unimportant things. I carried that argumentative spirit through much of my life, and it embarrasses me to remember some of the verbal sparring matches I got into with people....

Stop Monkeying Around

Stop Monkeying Around

I was reading some writings by Marcus Aurelius, a Roman Emperor from 161 to 180 AD, and he wrote,” We need to stop monkeying around.” My Dad used to say that to us boys as we grew up on the farm. I…

Giants

When I was 22, I borrowed $40,000 and started my own small dairy. My goal was to grow it and to become a very successful dairy farmer. My cows picked up a disease when they were being trucked to my dairy, and in less than one year, half of them died, and I had to sell the remaining ones. I was left with a huge debt, which seemed impossible to pay off....

My Choices

What do people want more than anything else? They want personal freedom, happiness, and the respect of their peers. Most people who responded to the survey said these were desires, but their responses made these hopes seem more like wishful thinking than very probable. They believe that what controls their personal freedom, happiness, and their peers' respect is beyond their control....

To Live is to Fight

To Live is to Fight

All over the world, there is fighting. There are wars, boxing, martial arts, wrestling, and life. To live is to fight. God made it that way. I fight to accomplish my goals. I fight against my flesh…
