To have been isolated and alone while they tore him apart; to find no cure through modern medicine; and then to finally be at peace; what else could that man do but tell everyone what had been done for him. Continue reading

It’s Christmas Eve and I have the day off so I laid around a bit more this morning.

The Lord put Adam to sleep and from his side created woman.
And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed. Gen 2:25

Now while Ezra was praying, and while he was confessing, weeping, and bowing down before the house of God, a very large assembly of men, women, and children gathered to him from Israel; for the people wept very bitterly. Ezra 10:1
Sometimes while writing Morning Thoughts, I do it for the sake of writing, out of an obligation that I have for you.

Sometimes I write about nothing, at least it seems that way to me. Continue reading
