  •     Another oldie but goodie. There were a lot of them back in the day.    Father, you knew the times, you know the times, and all that they entail. And, still, the most important thing remains: Jesus: the Savior of the world. Thank you is never enough. In the Name of Jesus, Amen. 

  •                   Imagination is a wonderful thing. It spawns creativity.

  •        For He has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son He loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.   Colossians 1:13-14 (NIV) 

  •                         Five questions for you: What are five of your favorite colors in order of preference?  Have you ever shot a gun? Have you ever been fishing from a boat? What are five of your favorite songs?  Do you ever wear boots, sandals, high…
