Have you ever come across people with an overdeveloped sense of entitlement? They assume they can walk all over you, treat you as their inferior, use you, control you. I’ve run across them. I’ve even experienced them practicing their entitlement on me. I can always tell when it’s happening and put a stop to it. I hope you know when your being used. I hope you aren’t a user.

This is a photograph of the tree which inspired my most recent drawing I posted this morning. Someone on Facebook requested it, so I complied. Hope you like it Jennifer! It lives just a mile up my road. Frankly, it is even more dramatic in the winter minus its leaves. I love trees. I have a special connection with them. It is a mysterious one. I admire them. They remind me of the provisions and promises. They inspire me to... Read more

Welcome to another FREEBIE FRIDAY giveaway. I’m giving this ORIGINAL watercolor and ink painting away. It’s a miniature measuring 2.5″x3.5″ and is painted on Strathmore watercolor paper.

Today is an exceedingly sad day for happy reasons. Lisa and I are driving our youngest child, our daughter Casile, to university.

What practical steps can be taken to bring reconciliation where there is brokenness? Here are some very practical steps that can be taken. They... Read more
There are all kinds of obstacles to your success. If they are not in your own mind, then they are in the minds of others. There are some people who encourage success. But there are also a lot of nay-sayers out there. As Hugh MacLeod of gapingvoid would say: “Ignore everybody!” (Get the book! It’s a good read.). I don’t know how many times in my life I have run into the attitude, “Who do you think you are?” Most... Read more
