Now is the Time

"We are but a small speck in a much bigger picture"  

Folks, we're coming up on some sort of "reckoning" (a settlement of accounts) in 2023.

I don't know what it is but I'm telling you, whatever "it is", it is going to happen.        

How many times have you walked outside your house or apartment, jumped in your car, turned the key, without even bothering to look around you - at the sun and the sky, listen to the birds chirping happily in the trees, or watch puffy white giant clouds gliding silently across the sky?  

What about watching the sun set, at close of day - how many of you have actually taken the time to watch this free and beautiful light show that doesn't cost a dime?    

You are missing out on simple yet extraordinary and miraculous events that take place in our lives every single day. 

What is gratitude?  - it's all about Thankfulness.

Thanking God for being in the right place at the right time, acknowledging His wondrous gifts such as   waking up every morning to a loving family or partner, good health or a job you love?

How many of you know you need forgiveness but haven't bothered to ask for it - it's free.    

If you haven't bothered to do these things, you need to start now.  

Because the time is fast approaching where we will be prevented from doing so.   

When we're all finally face to face with the rabid beast lurking among us, we'll remember those special moments, the beauty and peace and how complete and whole we felt but more importantly, that we took the time to show our gratitude.

Be Grateful, 

Be Thankful,

Deliver Us From Evil


It's time to reassess and take stock of how many things we've been taking for granted in our lives.

Some of them being our health, our safety, our food supply, farmers and ranchers, truck drivers, grocery stores, health care workers, EMS, families, friends and communities.  

It's time to stop and bow our heads, grateful for being delivered from evil.

Even though we're experiencing a momentary disruption in our lives, things will gradually return to normal albeit a new normal.   

I think it's safe to say that things are on the mend and many of us will be able to return to some sort of routine.   

The time we've spent with our families I hope was a good experience for you and not necessarily a bad one.

Maybe you were able to work some things out, reassure a loved one or inspire those among you to be brave in spite of all the chaos, fear and confusion that was being generated.  

I know I'm a wiser and better person as a result of being quarantined as I was sometimes pushed to my limits both physically and mentally.

Overall it was a positive experience and I hope you'll be able to say the same.
