On this day, let us remember the forever promise that God makes to us; as Jesus lived and taught and died with us, that God will always come, that light will prevail — sometimes not in way we seek or hope, but it will overcome the darkness, and hatred cannot last; love wins. LOVE WINS.

Grateful For The Cross
How so? How can that be? He hung from a tree, he hung from a tree! Too true, too true, they nailed him to a cross, and left him there to die… I think my gratitude rests primarily in what his story and sacrifice represent, what primary lesson do we learn, We all have crosses …

In my view a simple, civic duty to pay a portion of earnings if you’re able to help the country operate. A few quick thoughts: The government deciding how …
The Master, McIlroy
Happened on The Masters Sunday afternoon, round four, final; Rory McIlory in the hunt, a few other aces right around him. Plenty to do, not optimal to sit and watch so I mulled about in chores, pausing as the last hour of shots were made, McIlory had a shot to win, a final put on …
