There is a growing population of our so-called school fundraisers; by another name they are called casinos. Right now in the county next to where I live there are 13. I’ve heard some of the smaller ones state they bring in over a million dollars a week. Where is that money coming from? There are …

One afternoon, a young boy decided to go swimming in a shallow lake near his home in Florida. Just after he jumped in and started to swim, his father noticed an alligator and began calling to his son. The alligator began to come toward the boy and the boy saw him. He began to swim toward the bank, …

Everyone has them now and then, some of us struggle with them, and certain daily occurrences can cause us to have one. Yes, those attitudes we can get can say a lot about who we are. But let us look at the attitudes of God. Some of ours may not be very pleasant for people to be around. Yet with …
