Okay. Reluctantly I return to your regular programming and will desist from celebrating the Seahawks Super Bowl win. "Normally", writing produces two things: either a desire to be alone or a desire to break out and socialize after being alone. There are media-savvy writers, marketing-mogul-type authors, and there are recluses who want nothing in…

    Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession- to the praise of his glory.   Ephesians 1:13-14 (NIV)

     What I learned over the course of the final weeks of playoff football and winning the Super Bowl: Haters gonna hate. The repurcussions of Richard Sherman's immediate postgame (the NFC Championship) comments to reporter Erin Andrews, after attempting to shake WR Michael Crabtree's hand and getting a push in the facemask for his efforts, drew out…

Reflections about the gala event outside of the game must include evaluations…

       Thank you, Lord. To you be all the glory. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.

    I can do everything through him who gives me strength.   Philippians 4:13 (NIV) 

                                                                                                  Thank you, Lord, for those you called to play football, for those who give you all the glory, for those who will come to know you because of them. Thank you for the respite. Please bless your sons as they compete. Keep them safe…
