Where is God?

March 24, 2018 · by · in Christianity, Grief, On Faith

When things are going well, it’s easy to attribute that to God. But, when tribulations arise? Not so much! It is curious that He is called, “The God Who likes to hide Himself.” Is this where the game of ‘Hide and Seek’ originated? God wants us to seek hard after Him, to cling to Him […]

Rosh Hashanah and the Mourning of Muharram

October 6, 2016 · by · in Christian Political Thought, Christianity, Modern Society, On Faith

The Brotherhood of Man I have written in the past, concerning my understanding of the shared ancestry of Jews, Christians and Muslims (Arab) through Abraham, as described in the Bible. On Monday, I posted about the significance of Rosh Hashanah for Christians.  This morning, I noticed that one of my calendars showed Rosh Hashanah and a Muslim […]

It’s an OCC-OCC-OCD World! (December 2015)

December 15, 2015 · by · in About, Christianity, Grief, On Faith, Overcoming Grief

Tuesday, December 15, 2015.  I haven’t posted an update in a couple of months, perhaps because three deaths in the family occurred recently. And, while the passing of these three individuals, my youngest sister, one of my brothers-in-law, and the mother of a different brother-in-law, I would like to share the beautiful way that God is […]

Tuesday, October 6, 2015.  It’s 2 am, and I’m wide awake. After three nights of sleeping 5-6 consecutive hours like normal folks, Insomnia strikes AGAIN! Ugh!   It’s very frustrating. After forcing myself to go to bed before midnight for the last three nights, I made the mistake of taking a nap around 9 this morning, […]

I’m So Glad I Grew Up with Animals

“Happy birthday to you.  Happy birthday to you. You look like a blah-blah… And you smell like one, too!” I remember hearing and singing this ditty as a young child with my friends, then, laughing and chasing each other around in fun. The ironic thing is, I probably did often smell like some kind of […]

The Sheep of His Pasture

July 16, 2015 · by · in Animals, Christianity, Faith and Family, On Faith

“My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow Me: And I give unto them eternal life.” (John‬ ‭10‬:‭27-29‬ KJV) The Christian walk can be a difficult one.  We, naturally (that is to say, the “natural” man in us) want to do our own thing.  But, the new Spirit man in us […]
