Romans 8:35: "Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?"God sent His Son, Jesus, that we may live in Him. He is the perfect example for the world. He paid the debt that we owed for all our sins to be forgiven so that all who believe in Jesus shall be saved. Jesus also suffered. He is teaching us that we should imitate Him to follow in His footsteps, who had no sin, and neither was guile found in His mouth. When we go through triumph or temptation, hate, envy, or persecution that Jesus suffered before us, and there is nothing new under the sun. Jealousy came and killed Abel, and envy and hate crucified Jesus, and God destroyed the people in Noah's time for lust of the flesh, hated and drowned in the flood. Jesus said, "Think not." It's so strange, the fiery trials as though something has happened to you. As Christians and believers, we should have faith, trust, and courage to look up and see where our help comes from.Romans 8:36: "For we know we are killed all day long. We are sheep for slaughter."Romans 8:31: "If God be for us, who can be against us?"
This book is designed to be read to your child one story at a time as the lesson is needed. Most parents will want to start with Listen to Your Parent and play the listening game. The listening game is too intense to play all the time, so set aside some time on a regular basis to teach your child how to listen.Select other stories to read one at a time as the need arises.In 2020, I decided to cancel my in-person Santa appointments to avoid dying or killing others with the COVID virus. I worked for VideoWithSantaClaus.com to protect the children and myself. That first year almost 90 percent of parents wanted their child to be reminded to listen to their parents. Between the first and second year, I wrote Listen to Your Parent to help those parents. Listen to Your Parent was well-received and used by many parents.During the following seasons, I began to write stories to address other parenting concerns.You do not want to sit down and read this book to your child from cover to cover but select each parable when needed to teach a lifelong lesson.
He met his bride on a three-day cruise he bought as a gift for his teenage daughter to make up for forcing her to adapt to the demands of his flying job. Being an Air Force pilot forced him away from her with multiple deployments and other duties more than either of them wanted and made raising a teenage daughter even more difficult. He hoped a short cruise would allow them some quality time together before the next crisis developed, taking him to the far reaches of the earth, wherever that might be.However adventurous and demanding his job was, without knowing or expecting it, the adventure of his lifetime began the moment he saw her in the dining room line on the cruise ship and then was head over heels hooked when he heard his future bride speak. The adventure developed almost at once when he and his daughter were seated, quite unknowingly and more than a little surprised, with her and her mother and sister at dinner.The Letter highlights the real-life difficulties and adventures of an Air Force aviator but is centered around the chance meeting between two people and the near impossible odds of them ever being together. It is a long-distance romance that should never have happened, but by either sheer luck or fate or destiny or a string of pure coincidence, it happened. While a work of fiction, The Letter is based upon actual events.
I have many dreams of being a writer, and I love what I do. Let me ignite your mind, imagination, and dreams with the power of my fictional storytelling.
Due to the ever-changing landscape we face, this book was meant to be the most complete guide to the waterfalls in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Following this guide will allow everyone, no matter your hiking knowledge or ability, to enjoy some of the beauty that abounds in the area. It is noted that a very high percentage of the falls as shown are rarely, if ever, visited by the general public, so with an adventuresome spirit and a willingness to do the work--you too can experience these landscapes and the nature that surrounds them, or make you own adventure and find even more! Keep in mind, the locations change significantly in appearance based on season, rainfall, and topography due to storms, rock slides, falling trees, etc.Where they could be found, the author also tried to point out some of the history associated with the names, especially with the Indian or Finnish names as given to the specific falls, rivers, or surrounding area.Use this guide to plan your next hiking adventure--and I look forward to seeing you on the trail.
This book is an engaging tale about one man's journey of self-discovery and the adventures of living his life's dream. It was written for three types of readers. Throughout the book, the author shares life skills that brought him a fulfilled and meaningful life. It's written for the blue-water sailor with insights from seventy years of sailing experience, and it's written for the armchair sailor who wishes to experience what it's like to sail one's own boat across oceans to foreign lands.Life skills learned and shared by the author enabled the manifestation of a life of challenge, fulfillment, and adventure. These skills can be learned and applied successfully by anyone choosing to create for himself or herself the lives they wish. These same skills saved the author's life on multiple occasions and could be the greatest gift from reading this book.Experienced sailors will come away with detailed knowledge of how to avoid some common emergencies at sea, some not so well-known boat maintenance tidbits and ideas and a strategy of how to survive a heart attack far away from help at sea for several days.The armchair sailor will have many of his questions answered about what it's like to be on long-distance open water passages and visiting unique and fantasy islands like Bora Bora, Tahiti, and the Tuamotus archipelago of French Polynesia. The voyage transports readers to vicariously experiencing islands like Fiji, Tonga, Samoa, to name just a few.A synopsis of the blog of the author's vessel Always Saturday provides a contemporaneous account of the highlights of the passage starting from the transit of the Panama Canal and continuing all the way to Asia.

Little did Mirda know that God wouldn't let her slip away so easily.Read Mirda's story as she rediscovered not only her faith in God, but also her faith in herself, with the help of her best friend, her father, and the love of her life.
The reason for writing this book is to coach, instruct, and teach people how to perform various exercises correctly and effectively. I also wanted to provide people with information on eating plans/diets, supplemental information, workout programs, kickboxing drills, motivation quotes (we all need some type of motivation daily), and testimonials from some of my clients on how fitness has helped them in their lives. Get that work! A portion of the proceeds from this book will aid in helping the homeless and providing free expert fitness training for young athletes in high school and college

"Why are these grown men getting paid millions of dollars to play a child's game?"Inevitably, if you've been around the game of basketball long enough, you've heard some cynical adult ask this question. It seems fair; getting paid millions to play basketball every night in front of adoring fans does sound like one of the easiest gigs in the world. But there's a lot more to it than that.No one has an easy journey to reap the rewards waiting for them at the highest level of basketball. Only 3 percent of high school athletes earn scholarships to play in college, and only 0.03 percent turn pro. Of those 0.03 percent, there are only so many who have successful careers, make the millions players dream of, and don't go broke almost immediately after retiring. There's plenty of elite hoopers, but to make it to the highest level of basketball, you have to be the best in the world.One thing all the elite players have in common are insane work ethics (and sometimes some luck in genetics). Inside this book, you'll find stories of the relentless work and hours that these stars have put in when all the lights are shut off, no one's watching, and it's just them and the basketball. Because, when basketball is someone's only ticket out of a rough life, gang wars, drugs, and violence, you won't believe how good at the game they'll become.
An organization is more than a producer of goods or services; it is part of the fabric of the communities in which it serves. Over my nearly four decades in leadership roles in the financial, nonprofit, and public sectors, I have learned a lot about inspiring and motivating every organization's greatest asset, its people. People, in this case, includes everyone involved with the organization: its staff, of course, as well as its customers and the other stakeholders with whom it interacts in various ways.People have always been the key to the success of any organization. That is even more true today, as technology streamlines our work while also challenging our ability to keep people engaged. Furthermore, with the current labor shortage, it is increasingly vital for organizations to attract and retain top talent.I prefer a servant leadership style, which has suited me well in the many sectors in which I have worked. My strategic approach to growing revenue, reducing costs, and building relationships is to enable and support my team. I view my role as serving, supporting, and working for them so they have what they need for us all to succeed. We also have a lot of fun together along the way! It's about building synergy so that our entire organization's accomplishments are far greater than the sum of the individual efforts.Through my experiences, I have identified seven timeless truths that have shaped me professionally and personally. I call these the 7 Rs of leadership and life.

We are presented with several million options during our life that we have to make a choice between. The choices we make create the way we see the world and establish how we live in it. This environment, which we have created for ourselves, is called our world. Everyone has a world that is unique and personal to them.Of course, our worlds are based on assumptions that for one reason or another, we choose to believe and call facts.We are sure that what we believe takes precedence over everyone else's beliefs, and that can make our world a bit of a challenge to live in at times. I have decided to share my world with the rest of the world. Not to convince anyone that my world is better than theirs but to share some of the things that I found helpful for the world at large.In my eighty-eight years as a well-educated wonderer, many of my assumed facts have been proven wrong. I see that as progress a good thing. The challenge is to be able to accept that one of your lifelong facts just isn't true. I have only a few things that I learned that have stayed true so far and have been stabilizers in my world. I think they can be of use to almost everyone and need sharing.I am not writing this book to encourage you to think like me but rather to just think. There are things changing all around you. So many new things to learn. So many new places to visit. So many edges out there you haven't walked on yet. No matter how intelligent you are, your areas of vast ignorance are greater than your areas of knowledge.There is so much to learn that when you throw your arms up and say, "I know nothing," it will be true, but it is okay. Every other human on earth is in the same situation, they just don't know it.We have robots with Artificial Intelligence (AI) far beyond any human right now that are working for us. What will happen when they decide we are too dumb and of no use to them? I believe this could be a far greater threat to human survival than global warming. What do you think, and why?
