It’s a practice When you think of the word practice, can’t you hear Allen Iverson’s rant, “Practice, we are talking about practice.” The word gets a bad rap. I think of all the times my mother would tell me, “Go practice your piano.” I would rather go to the dentist. Practice - to carry out … Continue reading How DO WE remember

40 days
Happy belated Valentine’s Day 2024. February 14th, 2024 fell on a Wednesday. They call Valentine’s Day a holiday for lovers. It is good business for Hallmark and candy companies.

CHRIST’S CANDLE
It was the last candle lit for Christmas 2023. Its flame rose higher and higher. The flickering became brighter and brighter. I thought of all the prayers I had prayed throughout the Christmas season. I would end each prayer asking, “In Jesus name I pray.” Jesus, Yeshua, Jesus Christ, Christ the anointed One, Immanuel - … Continue reading CHRIST’S CANDLE
