Time has no favorites

2025/11/20

A soldier wrote his dad from a combat zone in a war-torn country. In the upper left hand corner under his name he wrote, “Not Here for Very Long.” True of the soldier - true of each of us. Life at its longest is very short in light of eternity. Wisely Moses advised us to go to God and ask him to: “Teach us to number our days aright, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.” Time has no favorites. We are each given 24 hours a day, seven days a week and 52 weeks a year. It does... Article Link

2025/11/20

The Bible says that envy and jealousy are sins and they are to be avoided.

I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.” That means that we must avoid envy and jealousy along with all the sins of ...

2025/11/20

Anyone who knows me knows I’ve never been big on politics. My husband enjoys it; he’s involved in it and follows every twist and turn. I’ve always tried to steer away from it. But lately, the noise has been impossible to ignore: Anger, accusations, division and a whole lot of shouting from every direction. Let me be clear: I am a conservative. Since becoming a registered voter, I’ve voted Republican most of the time but I’ve also crossed over and voted Democrat when the person running was sim...

GROVE HILL — Every hunter has a story about the one deer that sticks with them, the one that feels a little more memorable than the rest. For me, that deer came late last season on Feb. 6, on my own 8 ½ acres just north of Grove Hill. I was in my ladder stand that evening, bundled against the cold and hoping for one more deer to put in the freezer before the season ended. Out of the corner of my eye, he slipped into the patch. At first, I couldn’t tell if he was a buck, but then... Article Link
