Welcome to my blog, or should I say to the ramblings of an old man. I doubt that my ramblings are of much value, but at least I have an opportunity to share them.  So, please be kind and humor me. If nothing else of value stands out in these thoughts, I hope that you at least sense the value I place on a daily walk with the Lord.  That walk is what has provided me with motivation and a sense of purpose throughout my lifetime.  My prayer is that you, too, are experiencing this direction and joy in daily living which is available to everyone who puts his trust in Christ.  So, thanks again for joining me.  Please don't go without leaving some comments here so I can get to know you better as our paths intersect today in this blog.

A Holiday Wish



To All My Liberal Friends:
          

Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, my best wishes for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low-stress, non-addictive, gender-neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday, practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion of your choice, or secular practices of your choice, with respect for the religious/secular persuasion and/or traditions of others, or their choice not to practice religious or secular traditions at all. I also wish you a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling and medically uncomplicated recognition of the onset of the generally accepted calendar year 2019, but not without due respect for the calendars of choice of other cultures whose contributions to society have helped make America great. Not to imply that America is necessarily greater than any other country nor the only America in the Western Hemisphere. Also, this wish is made without regard to the race, creed, color, age, physical ability, religious faith or sexual preference of the wishee.

 To All My Conservative Friends who do not care for political correctness:

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Mary, did you know
That your baby boy
Would someday walk on water?
Mary did you know
That your baby boy 
Will save our sons and daughters?
Did you know
That your baby boy 
Has come to make you new?
This child that you've delivered
Will soon deliver you.

Mary did you know
That your baby boy 
Will give sight to a blind man?
Mary did you know
That your baby boy 
Will calm the storm with his hand?
Did you know that your baby boy 
Has walked where angels trod?
When you kiss your little baby
You've kissed the face of God.
The blind will see
The deaf will hear
The dead will live again
The lame will leap
The dumb will speak
The praises of the Lamb

Mary did you know
That your baby boy 
Is Lord of all creation?
Mary did you know
That your baby boy 
Will one day rule the nations?
Did you know
That your baby boy 
Is heaven's perfect Lamb?
This sleeping child you're holding
Is the Great I Am
