My daughter got rushed into emergency surgery on Christmas Day. The doctor was not optimistic but he and everyone else was amazed at God’s healing power. I thank God for my Christmas miracle yesterday. She is alive and well!

For more than 30 years, I have lived by this. I do not go to conferences and rarely preach out to other churches. My mentor taught me to stay focused on my assignment at our local church. Spend more time making Jesus famous instead of yourself and you will remain in God's will.

I don't agree that Tomlin lost the locker room. In fact, he justified what a great person/leader he is by being a good human being. He is a leader of men. He didn't want anyone to be viewed as scapegoat. His players will respond well and finish season well.

I am saddened at the lack of awareness that leadership of SBC cannot see how disrespectful they sound. The harsh wording, and arrogant tone of a number of leaders is ungodly. Just cherry picking scriptures is a bad look. Should spend more time getting rid of unqualified pastors.

Tonight I was able to have a Daddy/Daughter Date going to Bruce Springsteen concert because I was clean/sober. 31 years of sobriety has many benefits, this was one of them. Living my best life.
