Have your fill
“Blessed are those who hunger for righteousness, for you will be filled” There have been numerous times in my life when I have had to go back to someone and make things right. Doing the right thing, especially if it costs you, is not necessarily something most people strive for in this day and age. […]
What is Truth
Over the years my wife and I have tried to guide people to the truth of the gospel message. Some have said “Yes Lord” even on their death bed. Men and Woman have sought the truth and meaning of life since time began. Even Pilot sought the truth, “What have you done?” he asks when […]

For many of us the quest for Jesus has led us through the many mansions […]
Mercy
Well life moved on, we started having children, and like all couples there were some bumps in the road. Lets face it every one of us from time to time needs a touch of Mercy and Grace. We mess things up with our relationships, we make mistakes and do things and say things we regret. […]
The same Yesterday, Today and Tomorow
Every year for two days I take my grandchildren to Niagara Falls . Before them I took my children. We do more or less the same things each year and as the Grandchildren are getting older I thought maybe they will soon not want to go anymore. Not so, as a matter of fact all […]
Do you want to see him?
I wish I could tell you that I have led a flawless life and developed a spotless character, that ‘there’s no problem here Jack’, alas it wouldn’t be true. Jesus would say; “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God” Do you want to see him? This blessing belongs not to those […]
