posttoastiesMy Grandfather Pierpont grew up near Chatham, Ohio in the days when cars were a novelty of the rich. For staples and supplies that the family couldn’t grow on the farm they would take a buggy to the village store. He often told the story about what happened on one of those trips to town. It was winter. The river was frozen and the ground was covered with snow. The trip to Chatham would be an adventure that winter day. They would use the sleigh. The whole family clamored to go.

Backswing

Filed Under: Current Thoughts

When I pass a golf course and I see a guy getting ready to hit the ball, I’m the kind of guy who loves to sound his horn. People don’t usually think that is funny but I think it’s playful and it keeps me young and golfers take themselves too seriously anyway. The road home passes two golf courses. One of them passes between the front and back nines. On a nice clear day there is almost always someone on the tee waggling the driver and feeling like Tiger Woods. If I can I time my beep for that special moment just as they draw the club away. [Read more…] about Backswing

When People Try to Hurt You

Filed Under: Current Thoughts

Sometimes people will try to hurt you. When that happens, see to it you are completely right with God. If God is for us, does it really matter who is against us? (Romans 8:31) He can defend you. Humble yourself under the mighty hand of God. He will exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.” (1 Peter 5:7) For many years now I have been comforted by these words:

the-imitation-of-christThomas a Kempis wrote;

“Regard not much who is for thee, or against thee, but mind what thou art about, and take care that God may be with thee in every thing thou doest. Have a good conscience, and God will defend thee. For whom God will help, no man’s perverseness shall be able to hurt.

If thou canst be silent and suffer, without doubt thou shalt see that the Lord will help thee. He knoweth that time and manner how to deliver thee, and therefore thou oughtest to resign thyself unto Him. It belongs to God to help, and to deliver from all confusion. If is often very profitable, to keep us more humble, that others know and rebuke our faults.”
