arrow right Jack's Lily

A barking dog in the distance brought Jack out of his sleep and back into consciousness. He lay in the prison cell and curses the emptiness, the loneliness, the blackness around him. Morning was about to dawn, ushering in the anniversary of Lily's first visit. Lily had been  all that mattered to him in the world. From the day when she was born, she was fragile and sweet like the morning breeze blowing through the filed of lilies. No other name would have done her justice. But Lily never had a chance. When she was two, her mother walked out, announcing that she did not want to be tied down to a crippled child. 

Jack wiped the cold sweat from his brow. Hatred and self pity overcame him out of the depth of his conscience. He never knew where his wife went, but his life hit a downward path--- too much drinking and gambling, too many fights. He recalled with an oath that the last fight over a game of cards when tempers and blood ran hot together. He was doing time now on a manslaughter conviction. 

Lily had lived out her days in a crippled children's home. She never walked in her five short years of life. The only kind spot in Jack's heart was for the nice elderly couple who had cared for Lily in the home. Jack stared at the ceiling remembering every detail of Lily's last visit. Her yellow straw bonnet stuck up just right on top of her yellow curls, making a frame for her doll-like face. Eyes, blue like sapphires, flashed at him behind the wire screen that separated them in the visiting room. Both dimples showed when she smiled. A dress of yellow ruffles and ribbons hid the thinness of her body and made her look every inch of living Lily that she was. 

Jack sat up, cringing at the memory of the spotted lily his own Lily had brought him. She had hugged the clay pot before she let go of it. Then she said,

arrow right HMO Nurse

Three nurses all arrived at the gates of Heaven at the same time and were met by Saint Peter. St Peter asked one nurse, "How have you spent your life?" She replied, "I was an emergency room nurse. I was stressed out a lot and we couldn't save everyone, but we did help  many and did a lot of good.

arrow right Grace

After twenty years of shaving himself every morning, a man in a small Southern town decided he had enough. He told his wife that he intended to let the local barber shave him each day. He put on his hat and coat and went to the barber shop, which was owned by the pastor of  the town's Baptist church.   

The barber's wife, Grace, was working that day, so she performed the task. Grace shaved him and sprayed him with lilac water and said,

arrow right Good For The Soul

Last week i took my children to a restaurant. My six year old son asked if he could say grace, as we bowed our heads he said, "God is good, God is great. Thank you for the food, and I would even thank you more if mom gets us ice cream for dessert. And liberty and justice  for all! Amen!

arrow right Holy Fire

There had been rumors in the city about strange calls that made the receiver vanish, go blind, get deaf and even die. One Monday morning while a minister was studying his cell phone rang and he picked it up and saw an unknown number, not sure who it was he did not  answer, the phone rang again and it was the same number, still not convinced he refused to answer the phone. 

The phone kept on ringing, and remembering the rumors in town, the minister picked up the phone and screamed FIRE and the voice at the other end trembling answered timidly, its me James your son in the Lord.

arrow right Creating Opportunity

An enterprising person is one who comes across a pile of scrap metal and sees the making of a wonderful sculpture. An enterprising person is one who drives through an old decrepit part of town and sees a new housing development. An enterprising person is one who sees  opportunity in all areas of life. 

To be enterprising is to keep your eyes open and your mind active. It's to be skilled enough, confident enough, creative enough and disciplined enough to seize opportunities that present themselves... regardless of the economy. 

A person with an enterprising attitude says,

arrow right God Has Great Morning Breath

One morning I went into my daughters room to wake her up to get ready for school. I laid my head on her chest and gave her a hug. She sighed, and her breath rolled down my face. "Whew! You've got some serious morning breath!" I said. She laughed and we proceeded with  the morning routine. 

As we headed out the door to leave, a gust of wind came up and almost blew us off the porch. In the innocence of a second grade voice, my daughter said,

arrow right How Do You Expect to Get Into Heaven?

An exasperated mother, whose son was always getting into mischief, finally asked him, "How do you expect to get into heaven?" The boy thought it over and said, "Well, I'll just run in and out and in and out and keep slamming the door until St. Peter says, 'For heaven's  sake, Jimmy, come in or stay out.'

arrow right Love Returned

He can not own me I was not made to be bought or sold He can not control me I'm not a puppet on his strings He can not direct me my path is not the one he chose He can no longer hurt me my strength surpasses his You can love me and I will love you in return You  can gently guide me
and I will follow
You can comfort me when I am needy
and I will be gracious
I have the flame of hope in my heart
and I offer you my gifts
if I may ask of you
a hand to hold on to
a shoulder to cry on
loving arms around me
an ear that will listen
and I will give you
all that I have and
all that I am
and a love so deep
you will never want
for anything again

arrow right Jessie's Glove

I do a lot of management training each year for the Circle K Corporation, a national chain of convenience stores. Among the topics we address in our seminars is the retention of quality employees - a real challenge to managers when you consider the pay scale in the service  industry. During these discussions, I ask the participants,

arrow right The True Hero of the Titanic

John Harper was born to a pair of solid Christian parents on May 29th, 1872. It was on the last Sunday of March 1886, when he was thirteen years old that he received Jesus as the Lord of his life. He never knew what it was to "sow his wild oats." He began to preach about  four years later at the ripe old age of 17 years old by going down to the streets of his village and pouring out his soul in earnest entreaty for men to be reconciled to God.

As John Harper's life unfolded, one thing was apparent...he was consumed by the word of God. When asked by various ministers what his doctrine consisted of, he was known to reply

arrow right God

Once there was a man, As lonely as could be, He sat alone, He slept alone, Then thought came to he, He needed land, And water too, Solid green, and liquid blue, He needed a ball, With inner light, It needed a name, Sun sounded right, He needed  plants, 
To give off shade, 
he snapped his fingers, 
and trees were made, 
He needed creatures, 
To amuse his day, 
So animals were born, 
on every cay, 
But something wasn't right, 
The notion wouldn't leave, 
Then he thought of humans, 
Known now as Adam and Eve.

arrow right God said...I said

GOD SAID: Nice touch. I SAID: Thanks. But...what are we talking about? That WWJD bracelet you're wearing. Oh, Yeah. I've got five. I know. You can match 'em with just about anything in your closet can't you? Yeah. Cool, huh?  



You've got a pretty good collection. 



Yep. 



Too bad it's not more. 



Well I'll get a few more-eventually.  After all they do cost. 



No, I'm not talking about adding more bracelets to your collection.  But you're right-there is a cost involved. 



Uh oh.  I've got a feeling we're not on the same page, are we, God? 



Nope. 



Look, I'm kind of in a hurry, Lord.  So if You have something to say, could you just say it? 



I already have. 



Guess I didn't catch it. 



Let's go through it again okay?  Check out 1 John 2:4-5. 



Uh.  All right.  Gimmie a sec. 



It's under your bed. 



What? 



Your Bible.

I'm God, remember?  I know everything.

arrow right Elimelech and the Blessing

A Bracha, (a blessing), what is a blessing? We Jewish people have been making blessings for thousands of years. But what is a blessing. Are we giving a blessing to G-d for what he has given us? When we give a blessing to a friend, it's like wishing that good things

arrow right Black and Gold Boxes

I have in my hands two boxes Which God gave me to hold He said, "Put all your sorrows in the black, And all your joys in the gold." I heeded his words, and in the two boxes Both my joys and sorrows I store But though the gold became heavier each day The black was  as light as before. 

With curiosity, I opened the black
I wanted to find out why
And I saw, in the base of the box, a hole
Which my sorrows had fallen out by. 

I showed the hole to God, and mused aloud,
