On Being Good for Nothing
I remember reading the late Paul Harvey’s, “The Rest of the Story” when I was younger and how impressed I was with the stories of great people. One such story was about a young boy named ‘Guiseppe’. Guiseppe’s father was an Italian fisherman who came to America with his family, bought a fishing boat and…
On The Importance of Multiplying
The “Lord God, created all things…spiritually before they were naturally upon the face of the earth…and I created all the children of men; and not yet a man to till the ground; for in heaven created I them.” (Moses 3:5) All things were created spiritually before they were created naturally.

“It is for the benefit of God’s sons and daughters that, while on earth, we become acquainted with evil as well as good…. The contrasts, that we experience in this world, a world of mingled sorrow and joy are educational in nature, and they will be the means of raising all humanity to a full…

Too! It represents every period of…
On Big and Little Things
A man of God had a particular mission to perform. The Lord told him just what he must do, and just what he must refrain from doing. He could not go wrong if he followed instructions. The tragedy is that he strictly carried out the most difficult part, and failed in the easiest part of…
On “Moments That Are Lost, Like Tears In The Rain”
I remember seeing a movie many years ago called Blade Runner starring Harrison Ford. The show was based on a futuristic San Francisco where a few human-like replicants remained. Ford’s job was to destroy the remaining replicants, those who appeared human but were mechanical robots. Roy Batty (Rutger Hauer) a replicant, played in one of the…
On One Moment In Time
The song, “One Moment in time” was sung by Whitney Houston, as written by Albert Hammond and John Bettis: “Give me one moment in time,When I’m more than I thought I could be, When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away, And the answers are all up to me,Give me one moment in time,When…
