I’m sure you are like me when it comes near to month end (pay day). I needed to purchase something this afternoon and found my wallet was totally empty. I meant to go to an auto bank today, but chose to do some gardening. My dad always told us children when we asked for something […]
Have you even been confronted with what you would personally label as a dilemma? In fact, the dilemma is of such a nature that you are not sure whether to pursue something because it might be either immoral, unethical or both. You have this challenge and you are confused … what do you do? You […]
We have a small Sunday Evening Gathering at our home where we are studying the Old Testament Book of Malachi. Tonight we opened up chapter 3:13-18. After the study we have a Q & A time where people may pass comments or ask questions. Tonight a good friend raised a good conversation point around the […]

Because of this, many of the designs with their wording could be misconstrued as to the message they were intending to convey. Once again I […]
