Old Lyric- Empower Me Jesus

Written a few years ago when faced with a simple task for which I felt ill suited to carry out. It served and continues to serve it's purpose.



'Empower Me Jesus'



(intro)

Be kind, be merciful

Feed bodies and souls

Don't fear the madness

That sometimes takes hold

The greatest power you'll know

Grows from within

When you open your heart

And let Him come in.



Empower me Jesus

Embolden me Jesus

Lift me up… Continue

Things that go bump in the night - part 1

My next paranormal story happened just a few months ago. While we were living in Branson, MO we decided to go on the local "ghost tour of haunted Branson". I wasn't expecting much. I've been on haunted tours before, they've all been basically the same thing. Someone walks you around telling you ghost stories of this house, that old park, etc. There are always people who have been on the tour who have seen things. On a tour in Wilmington, NC we were even greeted at the door of a house. The owner… Continue

My eyes are sleepy
And the rest of me is, too.
Oh. There was no rest.

I wait. You don't come.
I go. You go somewhere else.
Is that a friendship?

The truth is out there.

My last blog post was about one of the most memorable paranormal experiences I've had. The experience I'm sharing now happened in the same house, but it's totally different. The house has been known to have strange things happen. You could hear the front door open and close, and sometimes hear footsteps but no one was there. Or you could hear the trashcan lid open and close in the kitchen when the room was seemingly unoccupied. This story goes into a different realm, the realm of… Continue

My American Journey installment 16

I thought I might stop at the La Posada Hotel in Winslow, Arizona to eat. It's a fully restored Fred Harvey hotel, harking back to the thirties in every way. But alas, I didn't feel like stopping there either. On to Flagstaff, and over the mountains to Seligman, a tiny town where they advertise the birth of Route 66. My youngest son Sam and I broke down there once, years ago, on the way back to California from Bluewater Lake. Ended up spending several days while the Aerostar was being fixed. It… Continue

My American Journey installment 15

The tags for the van finally came to the house. My wife sent them to me. So for the last leg of my journey, I was officially legal.



I stopped in Bluewater Lake on the way home. It's right off Interstate 40, before you hit Gallup going west from Albuquerque. We own a small trailer there, on a pinon and juniper covered lot overlooking the reservoir. The trailer used to belong to the neighbors, and when they upgraded, we bought it from them and moved it over. Had a little work done to… Continue

What's Really Wrong With America



What’s Really Wrong With America





There’s alot wrong with America these days, but almost all our beloved country’s ills lie in one place. The house. The American house is simply too big. Hear me out.



I’ve been in alot of houses in my day. Houses were my thing for years during my “I wanna be an architect” phase. I dragged my poor father to every open house… Continue
