September 17, 2025 This morning at 2:45 the Holy Spirit woke me for a visit. We are of the habit of starting most days around 4 a.m. with me listening to something the Holy Spirit impresses upon my spirit, we just got an earlier run at it today. I had asked the Spirit to guide…

September 15, 2025 Miss Deb and I enjoy getting together with friends and playing a card game we call “The Game.” I haven’t time to explain it here, but if you want to come over some evening, we will teach you how to play it. But in The Game, as with most other games, people…

September 14, 2025 Through a strange order of events, I was pretty much raised by my Uncle Clayton and his family for the first years of my life. Uncle Clayton was a very easy-going man. He spoke slowly, softly and moved with intention. In all of my years knowing this man, he very seldom showed…

September 8, 2025 As I mentioned yesterday, it is archery elk season, one of my favorite times of the year! Every since I was just a boy, I have been mesmerized by the bugle of a bull elk. You can tell a lot about a bull just by listening to his call. A high-pitched call…

September 7, 2025 Miss Deb and I both have elk tags for this fall. Hopefully we will get to go together when it comes time to attempt to harvest one of these magnificent critters, which I tend to call “bugle cows.” There are few things more invigorating than to stand on a mountain side and…

September 6, 2025 As we begin another day, the Holy Spirit just reminded me that it is really easy to get stuck in the normal. I got up again. I read from the Scriptures, again. I’m sitting at my computer to write, again. Today, I have my plans of how things should go, again. Then…
