Still in the beginning stages.
I have no strategy or structure mapped out for this story.
My Grandpa is calling it “free verse” right now, but I promise, there will be a plot, and a conflict, and a climax, and all that important WR 121 jazz…
I hope.

Once a week, or whenever I feel like it, I will be updating this new page to add to the story.
A quick medley of worshipful tunes I felt like doing.
Can’t wait to give Dylan his first Bible.
He is my boss’s very smart and very compassionate 7 year-old son.
Last Friday while I was at work signing off on completed tasks in the lounge, he approached me to ask, “Do you ever read any books about God, where He is talking to people about Himself…”
And when I answered “Yes, I do read one called the Bible,” he asked me if I would bring him one to read.
“Why?” I asked inquisitively, a bit patronizingly, yet delighted of course, “What makes you decide that you want to read the Bible?”
I was completely floored when he answered, “Because there is a boy at school who is trying to get everyone in my class to believe in the devil and they all want to kill people that believe in God. So I just want to know what I should say or do in case he tries to talk to me about it.”
My friends, be praying for this very brave young man. He is a first-grader.
Can you believe this is happening in our schools?
This is madness.
God help us.

And before I could raise my hand to correct him on that, as I often do in this class,
another man hollered WRONG and immediately continued to declare that Jesus was God and that God is the author of the Bible, by His Spirit through His people, and if there was one man on Earth that must’ve known the real truth about the shape of the Earth, it was Jesus - God. And he pressed through the teachers’ attempts to cut him off, explaining the fact that the shape of the Earth is clearly described several times in the Old Testament, not only in Isaiah, but also in Job - one of the oldest books in the Bible and pieces of literature in history, and included that true believers of scripture even before Jesus’ time would not have accepted a theory of the Earth being flat as truth.
Our “teacher” then got a word in, saying “but that can be interpreted in several ways…”
And the Christian man replied, “Yes, in a couple ways - the Hebrew word for circle is chuwg (he even spelled it out) and it can be interpreted as sphere, or better yet: round.”
The teacher turned his head to make eye contact with me across the other side of the room and I just said, “That’s absolutely right.”
So then he just kind of threw up his hands with a sigh and walked back to his podium and we moved onto the next topic.
While praying with the few Christians in my class outside when the period had ended, I was able to lift that guy up to the Lord with thanks and we all agreed that Jesus calls us to challenge scoffers and false-teachers as we walk with the Lord in these last days that we’re living in.

The Show at Hawthorne Theater Music Hall,
Was billed as the last chance. The crowd,
Both charged and charging, foul to
Graze a falling star, groped magic in the air.
His fare, fair too brief for she with charm,
To catch the falling star.
His fingers nav’re touched those guitar
Strings that could light the Heaven’s blaze.
And red haired fascination, misunderstood
Lines writ and wrought for her to snare,
Were lost in rhythmic beat of snare,
She Missed Her Falling Star.

There’s no reason why I wouldn’t marry the one woman I’m in love with and meant to be with.
