An All-We-Can-Eat Mindset

Luby’s Cafeteria remains a top pick for me. I get to choose what I want to eat. A couple of weeks ago, I indulged in a Thanksgiving meal in July — turkey, dressing, gravy, cranberry sauce, sweet potatoes, and green beans. I enjoyed half and saved the rest for later. It felt like a holiday…

Thankful to be Peaceful

Andrae Crouch was one of my all-time favorite Gospel singers and composers. These words are from his song, “Through it All”: “I’ve had many tears and sorrows / I’ve had questions for tomorrow / There’s been times I didn’t know right from wrong / But in every situation / God gave me blessed consolation /…

I said, yesterday, that my blogs about graduation had come to an end since Brennan’s graduation commencement was last night. Today I am talking about the aftermath of graduation! The…

Which Holiday is God’s Favorite?

Surely, it’s when He sent His Son to earth because His long-term plan for our destiny depended on it. So, it must be Christmas. Or is it Easter/Resurrection Sunday when His Son rose from the grave? I’m giving it some second thoughts. Especially, as we sat around our Thanksgiving table declaring our gratitude for all…
