The Old Man Made New

Such a precious man. In this interview the reporter asks, “Have you experienced a peace that passes all understanding?” Toby: “Oh, yeah, yeah… I finally got to a point in the spring… I was diagnosed in October of ’21, and I was going through all the chemo and radiation surgery, and I just got toContinue reading “The Old Man Made New”

HELL

I heard it said, “The worst part about hell is the total absence of God.” I agree but… That is actually what hell is. Here on earth God gets beat up all the time over the evil in the world. Beat up?

Marion Milner, “A Life of One’s Own” (Feb 1, 1900 – May 29, 1998) It’s interesting to me that this lady wrote this book around 1934… and that what she depicts is herself moved from being detached from her inner life by all the “shoulds” she even left her intuitive (female) traits to adopt theContinue reading “Shouldn’t I?”

He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. He will glorify me becauseContinue reading “Jail Time”

Dignity

Just now, 6:30 am, while waiting at a light, I saw a man in tattered clothes cross the road in front of me. His pants were baggy, they looked like they were maybe once his size, held up with a piece of rope or twine for a belt. His coat was flapping open, in theContinue reading “Dignity”

What’s In It For Me?

This is a photograph of a pencil drawing I did in high school. The assignment: Results… What I remember from doing this is of course the final picture. Its the best drawing I’ve ever done. When I stood back from the process, I was just as amazed as anyone else, feeling it was/is something thatContinue reading “What’s In It For Me?”
