On this very day, a quarter of a century ago, my life changed forever. Rather than spending today comatose in a nursing home, because of God's Grace, I am spending it with my beloved, Matt Schommer, & our 3 beautiful daughters, Aleksa Schommer, Arynna Schommer & Alyvia Schommer. Thank you, Jesus, for your grace, & for filling my life with blessings far beyond what I could have ever imagined!

This is AWESOME ... something we should all remember. Herberg
A 92-year-old, petite, well-poised and proud man, who is fully dressed each morning by eight o'clock, with his hair fashionably combed and shaved perfectly, even though he is legally blind, moved to a nursing home today.
His wife of 70 years recently passed away, making the move necessary. After many hours of waiting patiently in the lobby of the nursing home, he smiled sweetly when told his room was ready.
As he maneuver... Continue reading...

"In this is love, not that we loved God but that he loved us & sent his Son to be the atoning sacrifice for our sins.
Beloved, since God loved us so much, we also ought to love one another." 1 John 4:10-11

It is something I do.
"And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love." 1 Corinthians 13:13 Continue reading...

"This one thing I do:
Forgetting what lies behind & straining forward to what lies ahead.
I press on toward the goal for the prize of the heavenly call of God in Christ Jesus."
Philippians 3:13B-14
If well thou hast begun, go on;
it is the end that crowns us,
not the fight.

“I'm not saying that I have this all together,
that I have it made.
But I am well on my way,
reaching out for Christ,
who has so wondrously reached out for me.
Friends, don't get me wrong:
By no means do ... Continue reading...
