Living in Fort Worth

 I do not always remember much about living in Fort Worth.  But I do remember our house.  The church went too.  The railroad tracks behind the house.  How the jets flew over.  I remember living at the house.  It had two glass pane doors inside.  In the living room.  In the den, my Dad would practice his drafting.  While my Mom taught at school.  

My brother and me would play in the backyard.  We would go and watch the jets as they flew over.  F-16s and B-52s taking off from the base.  Once in a while a train would go across the tracks.  I remember going to Chuck-E-Cheese, our neighbor Nicole.  

One morning I woke up.  The tree had collapsed in the front yard.   Thats the only way to describe it.  I walked into the bedroom and I had a start.  I saw the tree leaning against the window.  I can still remember the earthen smell and the bark smell.  It was both scary and sad.  The tree coming up made it so we had to get some help with our plumming.  Our water was out for two weeks as a plumber worked on our piping.  We have home videos of us celebrating Easter as well.  I remember swimming lessons too.  How each week we would go while we lived in Fort Worth.  This was in 1988 and 1989.  Right before my family moved to Everett, Washington.

The Messiah Comes

 My friends, brothers, and sisters.  Shalom.  JESUS is truthful.  JESUS saves.  JESUS is our Lord, Savior, and Friend.  He fulfilled the law.  So, that we will not be judged, you see by the law, but we will be judged by the Blood of JESUS.  The blood saves us, and makes us clean, before the Father.  We need to believe in JESUS to be saved.  Each of us will give an account to GOD.  BUT when we call on JESUS we will be saved.   I feel like I am in a prison, of hostility from a certain person.  I consider this, my thorn in the side.  For some reason, they will not even let me apologize.  I must honor this, because I said, "Thy will be done".  Never tell a woman, this.  Because there is a false teaching going about, that women do not need a savior- do not need JESUS.  Let me tell you, that JESUS went to women- if women did not need JESUS, He would not have gone to the woman at the well.  JESU...

Wear Masks and Social Distance

 Hi.  I am worn out like everyone else.  But we need to keep going.  We need to continue to wear masks and social distance.  These are the safety measures provided us to make it through the COVID pandemic.  The CDC is the authority yes, but that authority has already taught us what we need to do in order to make it through the pandemic. I woke up this morning and felt compelled to write "continue to wear masks and social distance". Over Memorial Day weekend.  My brother and two sisters went to San Marcos for the weekend.  I think they had a  nice adventure.  The first picture they showed on there Facebook, it looked like nothing was there.  But as they went along they showed pictures of the river, and more than one coffee place.  William, Elizabeth, and Meagan have several portrait photos of themselves.  They were smiling and happy.
