This should be day 39 or 40 but I can't remember and I am so far behind that I won't be posting 16 days to catch up but I will give some highlights. One day of beauty was students and former students sharing their love of a professor that passed away from complications of cancer. The beauty was what they shared it wasn't his money or devoation to a sports team it was his devotion to his savior

I am skipping a couple days not because I can't find beauty but because this is a difficult thing to do and I don't want my days to become superficial just to say I found beauty.Christmas Eve service at NMC is one of the highlights of the Christmas season for me it really helps me get a laser like focus for the next day and helps the season come full circle. This years service was no exception

I posted this before but it's very appropriate for the time of year.It's just a small white envelope stuck among the branches of our Christmas tree. No name, no identification, no inscription.It has peeked through the branches of our tree for the past 10 years or so.It all began because my husband Mike hated Christmas --oh, not the true meaning of Christmas, but the commercial aspects of

I woke up early this morning so when Gods beauty jumped out at me the day wasn't very old but I saw it n0ne the less.There is no doubt in my mind that God hand placed every star and planet in our universe. Every age of people that have walked the earth learned to predict the movement of the stars and even though they may not have understood the intracacies of the movement of the earth in relation

Days 14, 15, 16 are a compilation of days because I am not sure if it's a sign of maturity on our part or desperation but it's people coming together to get a big job done.Allow me to explain. Over the past several years the company I work for has downsized and is now at a level of employees that all of us are called upon to do some pretty intense things when the end of the month rolls around and

I am running a bit behind on this but i am determined to complete this trek.Day 13 found me outside taking the garbage cans out and listening to the wonderful sound of the snow crunching under my feet and it brought back memories of my childhood and snow days when we would hope and pray for the day off school because the weather was so bad then spend the entire day outside getting frozen toes and

Well not really the Weather Channel but the technology that goes into the prediction of weather. I can remember as a kid when Dick Addis would draw the fronts on the big yellow boards then spin them to the next days weather now all we have to do is log onto our PC or tune in on our cable TV and we can see when it's going to rain/snow or blow. Meteorology is a very interesting science and today

Since most of the year I work 6 days a week I usually reserve Sunday for a nap but today after doing some work outside in the garage I was able to crash not out of exhaustion but more out of boredom it was a great nap I highly recommend it. I did miss the IU vs Kentucy game and bummed me out but im OK with it.

Took Z and K over to Bethel to watch a BBall game and it turned out to be Ugly Christmas sweeter night at the game for the students and they sang Silent Night almost half of the first half it was awesome. I really appreciated the respect and kindness they showed each other and the opposing team the students seemed to be enjoying themselves no drunken swearing or yelling obscenities at the refs

There is something totally awesome about good news from you Dr I am just totally amazed at how the human body works and the things they can do to repair it. My day 9 is the beautiful news that the pain in my repaired hip was tendinitis and not the metal parts coming loose. X-rays are so cool.

I am posting this a little late because I didn't post it yesterday which makes it late the next day...My day 8 of this journey of 60 Beauty is Pizza yep it's pizza. Many of you know that I meet my wife in a pizza place (Jimtown Pizza) and she has worked there now for over 20yrs part time and we both share a love of good pizza and have been known to walk blocks for it in Chicago.So on Wednesday

December 7, 1941—a date which will live in infamy. It is a day for many that will forever haunt them but it reminds me of the beauty in remembering those that gave their lives in defense of not only their freedom but in defense of generations to come. I have an older friend that lost an older brother at Pearl Harbor and he is proud of his brother for his sacrifice for us.I will admit I struggle

I will admit this was a fairly easy one for me as I was watching the big fluffy flakes of snow fall today it dawned on me that they are yet another thing created by God that man cannot recreate now don't get me wrong there isn't a ski area worth it's weight in fresh powder that doesn't "make snow" but it isn't the perfect individual flakes that fall naturally it is a granny frozen impersonator.

I thought I was going to lose my job at the end of November but now I think were on pretty solid ground for awhile.

The beginning of 2008 was a time that I felt God had been quiet in our lives and I wasn't sure why. We seemed "comfortable" but maybe on autopilot would be more appropriate description. Tracy and I had decided to separate ourselves from our current Sunday school not because we didn't care about the people but because we didn't feel like we were being feed. Tracy and I were invited to join a group

I can't help but be overwhelmed with all the doom and gloom that we are bombarded with everyday.

Friends wife diagnosed with cancer and watching from afar as she not only seeks to touch the robe of Christ she has grabbed ahold and priased him at every chance she gets. Another friend getting married I am very happy for him he really deserves to be happy. I have seen people angry with God not realizing he is reaching out to them just begging them to reach across the gap and take ahold of Him.

I have now started this post 3 times and I can't put into words how I feel, but a very dear friend was diagnosed with cancer a month ago and went through 6+hrs of surgery today. I so want to rejoice for her and Tim but I am sad. My prayer for them is that God will wrap his healing hands around their family and hold them so close that every breath they take can be felt in Gods palm.Amen.

In the 110 minutes of the attack on Pearl Harbor, our forces suffered 2,403 killed in action, 1,178 wounded in action, 640 that were never accounted for; plus, 188 planes lost, 158 damaged, and every battleship of the Pacific Fleet, eight, crippled or sunk plus other ships. There are not many memorials in this country that I would have trouble visiting but there are a couple of exceptions, one of

Have you ever felt that your walking right with God and you think you feel his closeness then all of a sudden....BAM! Well in the past week I have learned that a very dear friend was diagnosed with cancer and that a loved one my still be hurting themself.The friend with cancer has embrassed the Lord with all her might and it's in inspirational festival of tears to read her triumphs and defeats.

I doesn't matter if you agree with him but his story is accurate and true wether you believe it or not thats totally up to you. RUSH: Time now, ladies and gentlemen, for The Real Story of Thanksgiving, as written by I -- by me -- in my second book, See, I Told You So. It's page 70 in the hardcover version.

Well the President has gone and done it again he has pardoned another thanksgiving turkey. Just once I would luv to have the president say "well boys looks like its turkey stuffing and giblet gravy all around this year" then proceed to grab the bird by the feet and carry it into the Whitehouse.Happy Thanksgiving, what are you thankful for.I'm thankful for a wife that luvs me even though im a goof

There are just some things that frustrate me to no end.1. cashiers that have no idea what the meaning of customer service is.2. People that have no idea what the speed limit is. (slow drivers)3. People that think they can't go anywhere without talking on their cellphone.4. Kids that text in church.5. When the garbage man doesn't take ALL the trash.6. rainchecks (wife luvs em I hate em)7.

Have you ever had "one of those days"? No I mean "ONE OF THOSE DAYS"? I was working for Nelsons over at ND and things were goin good I wasn't to cold I could still feel my toes it wasn't super busy and it was almost time for the fly by before kickoff. My phone rang and I was busy pulling stuff off the cooker and I looked at the caller ID and it was a very good friend that almost never calls the

When you were little did anybody ever ask you "what you wanted to be when you grow up"? I remember couple of years ago I cracked my kids up when I told them I wanted to be a garbage man. We lived in Mishawaka up until I was 8yrs old so every Thursday was garbage day and I always thought those guys had such a cool job because they got to ride on the back of the truck and throw stuff in the back of

Did you ever want to learn to ballroom dance,square dance or something along those lines? Well ever since I was a little kid I wanted to learn how to scuba dive. Tracy and I booked ourselves on a Caribbean cruise with a bunch of poeple from church so I decieded this was a good time to learn how to do this. Tracy was going to get certified with me but she had problems clearing her ears and talked

Well I went in for the 5 month exam and the Dr said "see ya in a year" and he thinks this hip should last me over 20yrs maybe even 25 which is good news since they can only do so many revisions before there isn't enough bone to graft to.I have to admit I like Dr Kim's style at South Bend Orthopedics he doesn't pull any punches and takes great effort to make sure you understand whats going on

Yep I did, I told a nurse in the recovery room to shutup...The rest of the story is this I was waking up from the surgery and my head said "hey get comfy roll over and go back to sleep" but they didn't want me to and I wasn't awake enough to know what was going on and I told the nurse to shutup when he told me I couldn't roll over. The surgery only took about in hour and fifteen minutes and they

So I have my surgery scheduled and I have to go to the hospital for whats called a "joint class" now my older brother was willing to teach me all he knows about joints but that would get me busted for posession so I opted to go of to St Joe med center for the correct class. While sitting in this class I realized im surrounded by people that could have grown up with my 84yr old gramma, surely they

Ok, enough with the bionic man quotes but the last two years were pretty goofy for me since I was diagnosed with arthritis. I got used to being in some pain all the time and alot of pain most of the time. I was willing to deal with it as long as I could, but when we went through the marriage dymamics class at church I made a commitment to Tracy that I would at least go get it checked out again to

Tracy and Kaylyn spent almost two weeks in Kenya and this is the video Tracy took when they went to a house of a women and there were over 70 people there to welcome them. The video isn't the best but it does lighten up enough to see whats going on. I admit I do like the music even though I think it's just a repeating chorus.

To me this is has to be one of the top 10 movie themes...to be honest it was playing in my head when I was scuba diving in the Caribbean in February.The new Bond movie is coming out in Novmember and I will admit it I love James Bond movies. I guess im just a Bond nerd I have them all memorized and have seen all the old ones at least a hundred times. I can't explain my love of these movies I don't

Well the votes have been cast and it's time to start the counting. Does this mean that if the vote doesn't go my way that the rapture will happen, will we all be caught up in the air to meet Jesus? If only it were that easy. Nope tomorrow November 5 2008 we begin the next election cycle and all the talking heads on both sides of the aisle will start telling us who we should be looking out for in

This is a very powerful speech by Ronald Reagon and if you replace the statements about the "Cold War" and you replace it with the "terroism" it is true today as it was in 1964!At the 1980 Republican convention Ronald Reagan in his speech to the delegates he said "Govt is never more dangerous then when our desire to have it help us blinds us to it's great power to harm us" think about that

I read Derry Prenkerts blog to try and figure out whats up with my kids at NMC since he along with the staff really challange the kids and help them to get out of their comfort zone in a safeway. Derry posted earlier this week about the elections and it got me to thinking. Am I voting for something or am I simply voting against that same thing?I will admit my vote was not a vote for John McCain (

Yeah I admit it I went down to the courthouse to vote early. I have to admit I do feel better knowing my vote is already been cast. Now you might say that I could be the victim of voter fraud or somthing like it but in all honesty I wasn't totally sure if I was going to be free on Nov 4 anyway so I just took care of the problem.I also will not sit and watch the returns because it will most likely

I hate to say it but I love politics and I will talk politics with anybody who is willing to carry on a sensible discussion about the issues at hand. What will not do is get into a shouting match with an uninformed moroon that only whats to spout the talking points they got from watching the national news.The facts are1.

It never fails to amaze me that every four years our country is imbroiled in yet another round of class envy wars. The truth needs to be told about taxes. Our country was founded not only on Biblicle principles but also as a result of the rebellion the colonists had against England because of over taxation. It is now time again for another tax revolution but you may ask who really pays the most

I have really felt the Lord close to me the past couple of weeks as I seek how to pray for Tracy and Kaylyn as they prepare for their trip to the AGC baby center. My prayer for Kaylyn is that she realizes that she can change the world even if it is just on person at a time.

Have you ever felt like your body was falling apart? I really feel old I turned 40 this past February and now I can claim ownership of a fake eye and a metal hip.I have found solace in these things with the realization that our bodies are actually flawed and yes disposable. So all the aches and pains of life will pass away.1 Corinthians 15:42-4442 So will it be with the resurrection of the dead.
