  As a Christian, I can say that the last week or so has seen many things that cause me to think, about God as my healer and everything else for that matter.

  The first… not a biggie… the garden variety of creeping crud is making it’s way around and making folks feel like garbage.

• Have you thought about remembering your history?,

  Just pondering today, how many of you have thought about remembering your history…
  This isn’t really talking about a group of static dates that will have no perceived relevance in life later on. What I am talking about is your history, your family, who were they and where did they come from.
  I got bitten by a [...]
