... and how 'bout them Giants!

I doubt that I'll redecorate my work cubicle or garage with Giant memorobilia --- probably won't even buy a cap, but I gotta say I'm quite pleased that the New York Giants won the Super Bowl.  They've consistently played 60 minutes --- I'm impressed!

I'm no longer a huge football fan (kinda laid that to rest in the late 80's after one too many wasted Sundays watching the Vikings lose .....), but I also gotta say that all the playoff games (including The Bowl) were exciting to watch ... I may even reconsider watching some games next fall. :-)

Old Dog, New Tricks ....


(Titus 3:14 NIV)
Our people must learn to devote themselves to doing what is good ....

Doing good is a learned behavior; requires thought and practice.  Lately, I've been living my life a bit more self-centered than usual and the Lord "spoke" to me about that yesterday.  My first thought was, "OK, how do I do good at home?"  God then spoke again --- "God is not a God of disorder but of peace." (1 Cor. 14:33)  How true it is that when there's disorder in my life, there's unrest, so it seems that Sara and I should work at a little more structure with some things at home.  God also showed me that I need to be disciplined (Titus 1:8), and help carry my wife's burdens (Galatians 6:2), and to not become weary in doing good (Galatians 6:9).  "That seems like a lot to do, Lord --- it feels kind of overwhelming already!"  God replied, "Cast your cares on the Lord and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous fall." (Psalm 55:22)

It's good to listen to the Lord ....
