Time to Take Her Keys
Belinda whose heart had such pluck,
Helped an old gal whose car was quite stuck.

Why Don’t I Write?
I am at that point where I’m overwhelmed by how behind I am on blogging. So, until I can catch you up with all the interesting things of the past several weeks here’s a run-down:Aron is sick. Poor little guy. Fever mainly, but that’s enough. All…

Beautiful Kingdom
My brother e-mailed last week with some song lyrics he wanted some help with. His pastor is preaching a series on the Kingdom of God and their worship leader is apparently very open to suggestions. Joel wanted to give him some focused material on the s…
