It has been a popular and known theme among my writings that I am “rough around the edges.” I really am. I am a karate fighter, an outdoors-man, and a little brutish in my conversational style. I drive an old truck. I wear a leather hat, always. I like hard-working people and pride […]

A deeper dimension with God
January 11, 2013Eagles vs. Turkeys
October 23, 2012Many of my life concepts and understandings appear to me, in word pictures. The idea in this BEAM is certainly one example. Early in my professional career I learned that the surface problem is not always, the real problem. Often, the real problem is not the facts as they are being presented. […]
The Event that changed the world and changes me Today!
April 8, 2012People that know me well, understand that I have had more than the normal share of pain & suffering. Few can imagine how they would have survived what I have went through.

I was thinking recently about a story in the Bible about a servant of Abraham in Genesis chapter 24. Before you change the channel; see if the […]
A Father, Daughter & a Dog
October 17, 2011A Father, Daughter & a Dog – story by Catherine Moore “Watch out! You nearly broad sided that car!” My father yelled at me.. “Can’t you do anything right?” Those words hurt worse than blows. I turned my head toward the elderly man in the seat beside me, daring me to challenge him. A […]
SIS Acrostic
September 29, 2011I think about my deceased sister Detra nearly, every day. I lost her to cancer in 2005. She was my best friend we shared, laughed, dreamed, cried and worshipped together. Anyway this has very little to do with her really, except that I was thinking @ the word SIS and I do a lot in her […]
G.U.T.S. #1- Go Until Time Stops. Don’t quit till the race is over.
September 23, 2011YES, THIS WAS THE FIRST GUTS! The Guts series and the Guts adventure started with this BEAM. ————————————————— Still want to know why I named the blog site “Guts Is The Key?” Here is another reason. A few months ago, while doing what I always do; trying to encourage somebody online. The phrase came to […]
