Dear Mr. Putin, In the name of humanity, stop your war now! The world is outraged at what you've done. It is madness for Russians to wage war on their neighbors: Russians are against your war. It is madness jail children and journalists: you cannot hide the truth. It is madness to wage war on nuclear powerplants: your war has no winner. You will not win the hearts and minds of the world: we are united against your war. You are destroying the peace and prosperity of Russia and the world. Mr. Putin, you are wrong and you know it. The world knows it, too.

I’ve always thought that the most powerful weapon in the world was the bomb and that’s why I gave it to my people, but I’ve come to the conclusion that the most powerful weapon in the world is not the bomb but it’s the truth. — Andrei Sakharov #noNukes #stopPutinNOW

This is the week that changed the world. As we pray for the people of Ukraine and Russia. The world is shocked at the behavior of a power-drunk dictator. Let's take a moment and meditate on the blessings of being meek. The beatitude: Blessed are the meek for they will inherit the earth. What will it benefit a person if they gain the whole world and lose their soul? Meekness is our attitude towards God and others. Those that want to be the greatest- should be least and learn to serve. Meekness is not weakness- it is power. Meekness is never grasping for what you can get. Jesus said, "Take my yoke upon you, for I am gentle and humble in heart and you will find rest for your souls". They are happy and blessed because there is more to life than trampling your way to the top. The meek are happy because every good gift they have comes from heaven above. The meek are happy because they are heirs to the whole earth. They don't have to take it. God gives it to them. Blessed are the meek for they will inherit the whole earth. Ultimately, we know Mr. Putin will not have Ukraine. The whole earth is the Lords and fullness thereof.

More than half a century ago, while I was still a child, I recall hearing a number of older people offer the following explanation for the great disasters that had befallen Russia: “Men have forgotten God; that’s why all this has happened.” Since then I have spent well-nigh 50 years working on the history of our Revolution; in the process I have read hundreds of books, collected hundreds of personal testimonies, and have already contributed eight volumes of my own toward the effort of clearing away the rubble left by that upheaval. But if I were asked today to formulate as concisely as possible the main cause of the ruinous Revolution that swallowed up some 60 million of our people, I could not put it more accurately than to repeat: “Men have forgotten God; that’s why all this has happened.” Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

It's a new year, a new season, and a BRAND NEW DAY! His mercies are new every morning. After an extended break, I'm back, my voice is fresh and the visuals have a new look. Encouragement and hope are springing up fresh from The Word! We may get delayed, denied, and knocked down, but we keep moving by faith. This one is for everyone starting this year with a broken heart. Because your life, your heart matters to God. I am starting off this year in the Presence of The One who restores my soul. Take comfort in this: He is near. #HeIsNear #ByFaith #newyear2022 #newyear #newseason #newspiritualyear #BrandNewDay #brokenhearted #delayed #Denied #knockeddown #keepmoving #yourlifematters #HeRestoresMySoul

Breaking. Being broken. Sometimes means breaking new ground. For seeds and rain to fall into its depths and sprout and bring new life. And the broken ground was part of it.

It's hot and humid here in Arkansas. In every season of life- God is our source and strength. What season of life are you in? I am in a season of change, anticipation, and risk.

A clump of Daffodils along a fence row show signs of things to come. After winter, spring. Looking for signs of life on a cold rainy in the Ozarks. By now, in mid-June, just a few months later, these trees must be loaded with green leaves and in all their glory. We remember God's promises, we look for them in action,

We are a moment. He is forever.

The foundation of an old fire lookout station in the Ozarks on a foggy cold spring morning. Working on a video about finding happiness. Behind me, the Ozarks spread out in full beauty. God's goodness and mercy endure forever, He has made beauty where we see none. Hold on in difficult times. God is still good. Up above all this gloom, the sun is... shinning. We just can't see it. But we will.
