Just me trying to be honest with God.

"What man is a man who does not make the world better?" Kingdom of Heaven.

One reason God entrusted me with life is simply to work goodness in the world. Everything I am, everything I own belongs to this cause. Today, let me work some small grace in the lives of those around me. If we get creative, we can spread goodness around the world. Sometimes you have to put a postage stamp on it.

“Think about such things…” the Good Book

What is worthy of my thoughts? What will add lasting value to my life? Reflection is my daily habit. I can say without any doubt whatsoever, that God’s word has been the nourishment of my soul, the daily bread upon which I live.

"Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things." Conversations Within” ts Nov 5, 2026

 When you are convinced of the goodness of something, bring it to action. Delay has been the demise of many good intentions.

"Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe." Abraham Lincoln

 The adage, “Work smarter not harder” is worth perfecting. Knowing where to invest our initial energy can spell success or failure. I can learn to assemble my tools before using them, or I will spend a lot of wasted time looking for them. This bit of wisdom also has application when communicating with people, not just work projects.

“If the ax is dull and its edge unsharpened, more strength is needed, but skill will bring success.” Ecc.10 Conversations Within” ts Oct 30, 2026



“The eternal God is a dwelling place, and underneath are the everlasting arms.” Deut.33:27

 My soul finds a peaceful rest knowing that in an ever changing universe, the Word of God is steady and unchanging. His Word is the stay of my soul and my eternal security. When I am tempted to worry about my future, I am reminded that He “holds my lot.”
