And Where Were You?

  And Where Were You?      My best friend’s mother took her own life.   We were in high school at the time.   It came as a surprise, kind of.   Her previous attempt was unsuccessful, so she tried again.      Suicide can do weird things to a family.   Question marks float in the air sometimes never being resolved.   Guilt can come and rest on shoulders.   Plausible answers temporarily cover the shame.   “Oh, there must have been something wrong.”   Mummers about the town as you feel the starting eyes.   One question:   Where is God in all this?      Pain can convince us that He has left.   Somehow His presence is sucked away and clouds are left about our heads.   Truth is, His temple is not based on our feelings.   If our feelings gave Him substance, then He would not be much of a god.      He lives out of our reality not to be mani...

There Will Be A God

  There Will Be A God      The next great event the Church will see is the Rapture.   Yes, I'm one of those types of guys.   But what to do with this scripture?

What God Says About Beer

  What God Says About Beer      Not a lot.        I mean, Budweiser is not in my Bible.   What did He say about Bacardi mixers?   Was God ignorant of present man’s inventions of alcohol?   Maybe all could be summed up with this command.   “Keep your brain.”      Crack and meth are seen as bad boys.   Their ability to alter the mind are immediate and severe.   Hence, the government steps in to regulate by forbidding.   Alcohol, on the other hand, is permitted as a balancing act.      Prohibition was not a success.   It just showed people are willing to fight, and pay for, the right to cruise about society in gatherings.   Face it, people have a lot of fun and lay down many burdens at the doors of pubs and bars.   So, does God have a beef with the barley?      He has given us our minds as command centers.   Choices w...
