Over the Years

I’m nothing special. Just an old, fat, balding, grey haired sinner who has made a few good choices in life but learned most lessons the hard way. If you sense any kind of goading from me to do this or that, rest assured it is most likely because I want you to avoid the hard lessons I had to learn.

Sometimes I wish I could again see all the friends and family that populate my memory just one more time to see how they are doing and eto ask forgiveness if I have wronged them in any way. The ones that hurt the most are the ones I KNOW I wronged. There are some I dearly loved but now realize I hurt them in my ignorance and stupidity and immaturity. I live by the mercy of God, realizing that if it wasn’t for Him, I would have no hope. I pray that you all may come to know the mercy of God in the Person of Jesus Christ. He is my salvation.

The Goodness of God

This is my new theme song for my life. God saved my shipwrecked life back in 1973. He then guided me to a point where I became a forgiven, born-again Christian and took that tattered life and showered me with heavenly blessings. And now I know I will make heaven my home.

My Wife Deni

My history with women has been pretty much a crash and burn…… until I met this lady.  Deni and I will have been married 24 years last August and have known each other for 28 years. She has made life for this old man worth living.  So I made a video in her honor called “Music of My Heart.”
