I rarely look at Facebook, but I keep getting messages through email that indicate I have numerous friend requests on it. So, I opened it up over the weekend and was astonished. I had hundreds if not thousands of requests to be friends. Unfortunately, I reached the 5000-friend limit and cannot accommodate them unless someone unfriends me, but I noticed that a number are “following” me, (whatever that entails) . . . https://www.wordsfortheday.com/2023/02/worldwide-search-for-god/

Yesterday I was driving home from the keys. It was my second day of driving, and I was exhausted. As I was driving along, I decided to call an old friend who lived in the area. He was grouchy as a hibernating bear that had been awakened telling me he was old and hurt all over and blah blah blah. Ugh . . . I got off the phone in a couple of minutes, deciding I would rather stare ahead than listen to his old age woes . . . https://www.wordsfortheday.com/2023/02/half-or-full/

A friend of mine owns a big exotic game ranch in Texas. He has African game roaming all over it that includes some of the rarest species in the world and hunters pay mega bucks to come hunt them. I asked him which species are the most popular with his guests and surprisingly to him (and to me); the whitetail deer topped the list. In Texas they grow world class whitetails, and it turns out that hunters pay huge amounts of money to hunt bucks with huge antlers . . . https://www.wordsfortheday.com/2023/02/its-in-the-dna/

Yesterday I went Wahoo fishing in the Bahamas. It took three hours by boat each way, and we left at 4:00 a.m. and returned at 7:00 p.m. So, this morning I was wondering if maybe I thought I was still 30 years old or something. My entire body is sore all over from the boat banging through big waves, and upon our arrival muscling in big wahoo and other fish in the hot sun. My friends and I had a blast despite the arduous nature of the trip and I’m very thankful for the opportunity to go . . . https://www.wordsfortheday.com/2023/02/live-life-to-its-fullest/

The Bible makes it clear that God hates sin. If you doubt this, look at Jesus on the cross. That’s what God truly thinks of our sin. The author persuades that God will never judge people for their sins because He is limited by His love. Neither will He enact eternal judgment upon those who reject Him or send anyone to torment in hell . . . https://www.wordsfortheday.com/2023/02/shack-burns-2/

Recently a buddy, (Jack Parker), sent me a photo of himself and his new baby, (his dog). He is now 93 years old. His wife passed away several years ago from Alzheimer’s and he has been a bachelor ever since. So, the other day he went down to the DMV to take care of some business and as usual, it was packed. He took a seat at a table and across from him was a lady whom he described as a very young and pretty lady . . . https://www.wordsfortheday.com/2023/02/young-woman/

I am deeply concerned that the truth is becoming obsolete in this country. Without truth, there are no boundaries. Nowhere is it more evident to the average person than in the media? They call it “spin”, but it is nothing but distortion of the truth or in plain words a lie . . . https://www.wordsfortheday.com/2023/02/if-you-stand-for-nothing-you-will-fall-for-anything-2/

The Bible is clear that we should be humble. A famous song has lyrics that indicate “that it is hard to be humble when you are perfect in every way”. If someone is “beautiful” I imagine it would be impossible not to know it. I’m sure that every last one of them has been told that they are beautiful most of their lives beginning with when they were old enough to talk. The same holds true for being smart . . . https://www.wordsfortheday.com/2023/02/hey-look-at-me-uh-maybe-not/

I met a man the other day who is quite the adventurer. He’s narrowly escaped death numerous times, (as have I), and we compared notes and couldn’t decide which of us has had the most near-death experiences. He assumed that all of mine occurred in my misspent youth overdosing on drugs, experiencing car and motorcycle crashes, and lethal fights, but my close encounters continued even after I found Christ . . . https://www.wordsfortheday.com/2023/02/not-a-day-longer/

A friend of mine from the Florida Keys called me not long ago and told me had watched my testimony on the internet. He then began pouring his heart about his only daughter. She was doing well with her life, and he sent me a video of her promoting her fitness business. She was a beautiful girl and obviously had worked out and was incredibly fit. Unfortunately, she got into the wrong crowd and soon became a heroin addict . . . https://www.wordsfortheday.com/2023/02/too-late/
