@Yarnlady 🧶 found an idea for you

It is with an exhausted mind and body that I bid you Good Morning, Good Afternoon, and Good Night. Normally when I wake at 3am its because my brain turns on and I can’t fall back asleep. I also usually get to take a late morning nap to get me through the day. Not this time… The 3am wake was a phone call from my frantic mother in law, “PopPop had fallen and all he can communicate is moans.” So into action my wife and I leapt. 20 hours later of shuffling family to and from the hospital, and a 4 game basketball tournament admist… We are finally home and ready for rest. The prognosis is unclear but based on initial tests, PopPop suffered a double stroke. His mind is working but he can’t verbalize other than grunts and “mmmmm”-es and his right upper body is currently paralyzed. Obviously still early in all of this and your prayers are appreciated. We are working to transfer him to a better hospital ASAP as we’ve already encountered issues at the current one. P.S. Son had 17 points, 3 assists, and 1 rebound in the second game. He hit a clutch deep 3 to send the game into double OT! God bless #GM #GA #GN #PV

Good Morning Notriches! (I think 😏) Well, there isn’t any other way to say this than with an image. After all, a picture is worth a thousand words they say… They also say, “happy wife, happy life”. Or as my wife specifically said, “It’s time for the mid-life crisis to be over…the beard has got to go.” So…for my proof of work this morning, I present to you “old Jason”. I had my beard short for 30 years and I was really hoping to have it long (with a cool mustache of course!) for the next 30 years. Turns out I’m only allotted 3 years 😬 So here’s to the next few decades of a happy wife. Cheers and God bless you this morning! P.S. I’m probably going to keep my profile picture with the longer beard. If for no other reason than to remind myself how cool I once was 🤣 #GM #PV #pow #coffeechain #teachain

Good Morning Nostriches. Yesterday was a harder day. But God was gracious and met me where I was. “And God is able to make every grace overflow to you, so that in every way, always having everything you need, you may excel in every good work.” ‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭9‬:‭8‬ ‭HCSB‬‬ #GM #PV #Biblestr #Bible #Christian #Jesus

And God is able to make every grace overflow to you, so that in every way, always having everything you need, you may excel in every good work.

Been a long few days. Heading to sleep now. Peace (and rest) to you. Good night #GN

Good Morning Nostriches! I love the Word of God. Each time I read it, something new jumps out at me. How many people have read Revelations? (Not many…) Pastors tend to stay away from it in corporate gatherings and individuals (if they read their Bible) usually stick to the more well known passages. If one does read Revelations, they prefer the flashy, prophetic, end of the world verses. But you know what? In just the first few sentences we are told “The one who reads this is blessed, and those who hear the words of this prophecy and keep what is written in it are blessed, because the time is near!” ‭‭Revelation‬ ‭1‬:‭3‬ ‭HCSB‬‬ How cool is that? Now I believe that the Angel of the Lord (speaking to John in this verse) is communicating to not only read the book of Revelations but the other scrolls and manuscripts that are now a part of the canonical Bible. But even if He intended it only to be the words within Revelations, if one desires or is is otherwise in need of blessing, they simply have to read scripture. God is good and He makes loving Him so easy! Amen. Have a blessed day Nostriches! #GM #PV #Bible #Biblestr #God #Jesus #Wisdom

I’ve been thinking about “trust” lately, especially when it comes to leadership and relationships. It seems to me you either trust someone or you don’t. And while I’m not a fan of all or nothing thinking. There isn’t halfway trust or trust in one thing but not another. Because trust is a lag indicator of the lead indicator, integrity. So someone either has integrity and thus is trustworthy or they don’t and they aren’t. This begs further reflection and questions regarding when someone messes up. We all do, right? No human is perfect. So then is there a trust meter? If so at what point does a relationship cross over between trustworthy vs untrustworthy and how is this so called trust meter different than the above wherein I believe you either trust someone or you don’t. Let’s use an example of spouses. If my spouse says they don’t trust me in ABC. Does that mean they don’t trust me in other areas? In other words is it possible to trust someone in one area but not another? Is trust then compartmentalized? And If I lack trust in someone in one area, how is it I can trust them in another without believing they are non-integral and trustworthy? If we compartmentalize trust, where then does forgiveness lay? —- I try to use the Bible as my worldview and source of truth as much as I can remember too (a las, even I am not perfect 🤪). If I consult God’s Word I see time and time again Jesus forgave the whole person…not a part of them… #Bible #Biblestr #Leadership #Wisdom #Philosophy #Jesus
