Welcome to my Blog site

I have watched anonymous bloggers devastate and destroy people without the slightest trace of proof. I readily admit the mistakes of my life and have apologized profusely. I can't undo the past. I must now move ahead with my life. I say this to get it out of the way for those who would love to heap more devastation upon me, my family and my church. I want deperately to move on and be positive and welcome all my old friends and new friends to share with me on this site. Please do not let it degenerate into something ugly and profane. There are so many good things to talk about rather than dwelling on the past. In the next few days there will be great news about our church and what's in the future. So, I am anxious to hear from you. Ask questions if you like, but make sure they are positive and not intended to accuse or intimidate or embarrass. That's not what this site is about. It's about making things better for all of us . . .

Love is the Answer

These are trying times for everyone. The downturn in the economy has effected all of us. War looms in many areas of the world. Our young people are being killed on foreign fields of battle. And lives, young and old, are being taken in our own homeland by the reckless use of weapons. The misuse of illegal and legal drugs is taking its toll in our land. What is the answer?

At the risk of sounding simplistic, there is an answer: LOVE. The best definition of God to me is this ... GOD IS LOVE. If we have love for one another ... those of other races, other religions, other cultures, other nationalities ... then the fighting and the killing will cease.

I'm not talking about the mushy love of a romance novel but better described as our accepting, and even tolerating if necessary, those we have great differences with ... racially, culturally, idealogically, theologically, economically, and educationally.

You see, every person on the face of the globe is a creation of God and as such, our brothers and sisters. We have got to come to that understanding or else civilization as we know it will self-destruct.

The planet is in peril. We have got to come to a mindset of including everyone as a member of God's Great Family and learning to live with our brothers and sisters on this small planet or else we will come to total oblivion at our own hands.

Let us all love one another . . .
