Oh boy, are we going to have some fun in this post! It is about bartering, or trading goods or services without money changing hands. Say you've got some potatoes from your garden that I'd like to have, and I in turn, have a shovel that would work great in your garden. We agree on … Continue reading Barter

Attempted rescue
I tried my very best to rescue this moth. It was stuck inside my office building and kept going up to a big bank of windows just outside my door. It could see the outside, it just couldn't reach it. I gently tried scooping it into my cupped hands. It kept fighting my attempts. I … Continue reading Attempted rescue
Viper
The Dodge Viper was initially conceived in late 1988 at Chrysler's Advanced Design Studios. The following February, Chrysler's president suggested to produce it, first as a clay model, then in sheet metal. The car appeared at an auto show in 1989. Public reaction was so enthusiastic that the chief engineer was directed to develop it … Continue reading Viper
Work in progress
First things first. ladysheepdog, do not read this post as it is a quote from Charles Stanley. There now that business is taken care of, this really stuck out to me today. "How I choose to react reveals what my character is—and has the potential to impact onlookers, for better or worse. This is especially … Continue reading Work in progress

Walking my talk?
Lately I've been wondering, and I walking my talk? Oh sure, I've got the lingo down and talk a good game, but am I backing it up with my life? Is my behavior consistent with the Biblical truth I absorb from reading the Word? Am I living what I profess to believe? What am I … Continue reading Walking my talk?
Cut you down to size
This post will be short and sweet. (No, David and Alan, this still does not mean mini Snickers!) It came to me while reading this verse that there are a lot of folks out there that think it is their mission to cut people down to size. They somehow think this makes them bigger, smarter, … Continue reading Cut you down to size
Update
I just want to apologize. I normally do a post once a week. But with the bridge closure, I'm trying to navigate my "new normal." When I do drive to and from work, that adds two hours on my day. I've worked out a schedule for my week now on when I'll spend the night … Continue reading Update
WWJD Moment
I had a WWJD (What Would Jesus Do) moment this week as a result of the bridge failure where I live. (See my previous post https://godstillspeakstoday.com/2024/04/20/i-did-not-see-that-coming/) The state and county worked really hard to open a detour on a dirt county road to allow us access, twice a day. After five days in town I … Continue reading WWJD Moment
I did not see that coming
You just never know what may happen next. The very next moment something can happen that catches you unaware. It has happened in my life, in my past, and I don't like the feeling of being unprepared. Not being prideful here, but I've always associated myself with the 5 prepared virgins in Matthew 25. “At … Continue reading I did not see that coming
