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
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
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

Every day we are reading John 17, and digging deeper to find new insights into the prayer of Jesus right before he was arrested. Verse 20 really stuck out to me. “I am praying not only for these disciples but … Continue reading Exponential
I love babies. My favorite thing when my son was a baby was the smell of his head. I guess that's why I love the line in the song Away in a Manger that says “the little Lord Jesus lay down His sweet head.” So when I read this the other day about His precious … Continue reading A fall to my knees moment
A few months back I had a game changing experience. My head, heart and soul literally burst into kittens, rainbows and unicorns! (Well, not really, but it sure felt like it.) Defined, a game changer is a newly introduced element or factor that changes an existing situation or activity in a significant way. “Faith comes … Continue reading Game changer
I've been thinking through some stuff the last couple of years. Some difficult stuff. My dad passed away over a decade ago, and this fall my mom passed. My word of the year for 2024 is Restoration. I actually began unpacking it after my mom passed. Slowly, as the Holy Spirit brought things to remembrance, … Continue reading Repeat after me
Last winter I did a post about my white knuckle grip of death drive home in a white-out blizzard. My hands were holding the steering wheel so tightly, my knuckles were white. I had no other choice but to continue the drive, as the visibility was zero, and there was no safe place to turn … Continue reading White knuckle grip of death
