Timothy, Mark, Psalm 71, a stream of good, yes my son. So much there, bits of wisdom, joy. Be persistent, consistent , through patience, teaching, guiding, instructing.

Hot Seat
A couple warm days, over 90 F, here where we live. In my garage office, the fan gives just enough breeze to mediate the heat, but still it’s a little rough. The warm days will cool end of week though, and it will be a little more bearable. But in America right now, there’s a …
Consensus
How to find it, create it, maintain it, consensus. In a family, on a team, in a community, in a company, in a country, how, how, how?

Haiku Form: Memorial Day
Memorial Day, Never forget, thankful, Blood spilled, for you.
Haiku Start: He Loves You
Amen amen, He loves you, Because you have loved me, Love begets more, amen. This choppy phrasing, a glimpse into reflection on A passage from the Book of John, 16 by chapter: “...For the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me...” In the most fundamental way I think this says, if you love …
Haiku Form: Connect
Connect, Disconnect, Both we do each day, needed, When? Why? Must improve.
