So Thankful, God Is In My Story!

https://youtu.be/riv6AD49_lM?si=TVsfWWW0uh0F9SZM Ok, I'm going to continue this week with another "extra" post. As I wrote yesterday this is a week full of milestones for me personally and with it I want to praise HIS name! I hope you do not get tired of seeing "my verse" Philippians 1:20 but here it is again: Yesterday's Post … Continue reading So Thankful, God Is In My Story!

Praise Him!

https://youtu.be/dQdfs5S6jyA?si=XI8rhUkojTVg048B Today's post will be a little personal. What a journey the past year has been. Just a little over a year ago I was in Chicago, IL having my third brain surgery. (third scheduled surgery, there were others in there unscheduled) Any who, I ended up in Chicago for my third surgery. I was … Continue reading Praise Him!

A Lion…

Let's start today with some worship together... https://youtu.be/58-twWe3yvU?si=jZRT1-shrBAI00Zx Today's encouragement will be a little different than previous ones. I had a thought, a word, an encouragement myself this past week that I wanted to pass along... So I talked about a little over a year ago a men's conference I attended back in September 2024 … Continue reading A Lion…

God Is In The Story!

As I wrote last week I'm re-reading "Don't Give The Enemy A Seat At Your Table" By Louie Giglio right now. I just finished it and while it is fresh on my mind I wanted to write another post on it. Last Week's Post My highlights once again in Chapter 10 were a lot. I … Continue reading God Is In The Story!

The Valley

So, as I talked about last week - He (God) heard his children then and he hears His children now. He's the Same God, He's the ROCK. The other day I got in my truck to go somewhere and a few songs came on the radio that really hit me. I really didn't think about … Continue reading The Valley

The Rock

I think back to my times in the hospital. The times I've been there either before or after surgeries it wasn't a fear of death that got me down but a fear of a changed life. But as I would get down someone would come to encourage me. I usually didn't recognize the encouragement as … Continue reading The Rock

A Look Back At My Surgery

Therapy dog at the hospital Ok this is as I remember it (so possibly not exact). I mentioned in yesterday's Thanksgiving post how I was cleared to return to Monticello on November the 1st after my surgery on October the 16th. On the 17th after my surgery I remember waking up in ICU and seeing … Continue reading A Look Back At My Surgery

It’s Been A While…I’m Thankful!

I've been out of this habit for a while. As I wrote back in October I went to Chicago, IL for surgery on October 16th (flew up there the afternoon of the 14th). My previous posts were written well before we left for Chicago and scheduled to post for a while. In the next few … Continue reading It’s Been A While…I’m Thankful!

Let It Rain!

Today is my day of surgery. I'm going to schedule a little longer post for this morning. Please spend some time in worship today. Below is a post I wrote the other day before my surgery plans changed. It is still as real as ever... I've been in a season of struggles lately. (I guess … Continue reading Let It Rain!

Plans change…

Thank you all for the prayers lately! I posted a while back my prayer request for the surgery I was scheduled to have this week. That surgery plan has changed to next week... My surgery was originally scheduled for October 9. Some friends and family mentioned a gentleman from our hometown who had went through … Continue reading Plans change…
