Driver’s Education

1701) This will really date some of us: Can you remember when you were learning to drive? Maybe it was at a very young age if you drove tractors, snowmobiles, dirt bikes, 4-wheelers? In some form, all of us were instructed how to drive safely and successfully. What would have happened if all we did

Worthless

1700) Through the years, I have developed a limited understanding of economics. I say limited because I only can grasp these concepts on an elementary level. Having said that, I do know: The value we place on things is proportional to what it cost us to get it. If we have to fight for something

We’re All Teachers

1699) I am one of the fortunate people who knew from a young age what I wanted to be when I grew up. I knew I wanted to be a teacher. Thinking back, I remember the very first faculty meeting I ever attended and feeling the rush of joy because, finally, my dream had come

What’s In Your Toolbox?

1698) When I taught high school Bible in North Carolina, I had several male students who were around 6’ 7” tall. I remember one day when 4 of these young men surrounded me and I laughed as I look so far up into their faces. When you are as tall as these young men, you

Denial Can Be Fatal

1697) Whenever I hear or read of the word denial when associated with the Bible, I always think of Peter. Peter was the disciple who stated he’d never be disloyal to his Master and yet, as most of us know, he did. This is not the denial I think of today. When I read Revelation

Identification

1695) Proper identification is vital these days because so many criminals are successfully stealing from people who don’t bother to verify these imposters when they show up. It would be imprudent to not take the extra steps to research the identities of those we deal with. But some verification is difficult, especially with those who

Handholding

1694) Parents have a tremendous responsibility for their children. It is their job to nurture, provide, and protect them. One outward sign of parents taking this responsibility seriously is when they hold the hand of their child when crossing a busy street. This handholding is to protect them when danger surrounds them. Isaiah 41:13 tells

Contributor or Contaminator?

1693) Whenever we come in contact with another person, whether someone we know or a stranger, we always leave a mark on them. The question we should often ask ourselves is, Am I contributing something good to this person or am I contaminating them with something bad? 1 Thessalonians 5:11 tells us to encourage others

How’s Your Vision?

1692) Because I have a full-time job teaching and a part-time one writing, sometimes both jobs demand multiple hours of attention and contribution. Though I love doing both, I can feel over-whelmed. Sometimes to ease the pressure, I’ll go somewhere, away from my computer screens. When I’m away, I have sat with a cup of
