Walk Across America for Christ: August 2010
http://walkacrossamericaforchrist.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Walk Across America for Christ. Tuesday, August 24, 2010. Speed is matter of perception. A hundred miles an hours is a fast clip for a car but is very slow for a commercial aircraft. Ten miles an hour is a pace that just might win a marathon but will finish dead last in a sprint. Like Dorothy, I want to get back to Kansas; to our friends and our church and familiar surroundings. Even though it's summer, I find myself humming, "I'll be home for Christmas. You can count on me.". Slow and easy wins the race,.

Walk Across America for Christ: April 2010
http://walkacrossamericaforchrist.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Walk Across America for Christ. Saturday, April 24, 2010. I can't explain it, I'm just grateful for it. What is "it".IT is the love of people. I don't know what motivates folks to love you enough to give you a piece of their life; to give you their time. The greatest gift anyone can give you is their time.You can always make more money. You can always take a physical gift back but time, once given, once spent.is gone forever! We spent all day Sunday with them and it was absolutely wonderful.it was as...

Walk Across America for Christ: Friendship Addiction
http://walkacrossamericaforchrist.blogspot.com/2010/10/friendship-addiction.html
Walk Across America for Christ. Tuesday, October 5, 2010. Drugs and alcohol. We hear about them so much, the damage they do to human lives doesn't even seem to register on our "I care meter." Today I met a gentleman who is addicted. He was trembling as I held his hand and prayed. When I asked him if he had ever tried to quit, he said he had, but then he "slipped back.". I started to talk with James about giving his "friends" the boot! Did what I say make a difference? Whether it did or didn't, it needed ...

Walk Across America for Christ. Wednesday, March 31, 2010. I gave Lucy the same gift for her birthday that I gave her for Christmas, our anniversary and Valentine's Day.a day of unlimited hot running water! We checked into a motel and as she washed and re-washed her hair all I could hear was "AAAH! Raise our children and eliminate our debt . Problems are highlighted and opinions are freely offered. Yet out of all the answers to our societal woes, no one mentions God. Please forgive me, I didn't mean to r...

Walk Across America for Christ: The Story Stops the Glory
http://walkacrossamericaforchrist.blogspot.com/2010/09/story-stops-glory.html
Walk Across America for Christ. Tuesday, September 21, 2010. The Story Stops the Glory. We were getting out of the RV when we saw her approaching from the back of the vehicle. For a moment, I thought about going around the front to avoid talking with her. "Why? I thought. We're out here to talk to. People not walk away from them! So we turned toward her and said, "Hello" and wonders of wonders.she said "Hello" back! No," I replied. I was feeling foolish. God gives us a chance to be a blessing and then we...

Walk Across America for Christ: Be Not So Subtle
http://walkacrossamericaforchrist.blogspot.com/2010/12/be-not-so-subtle.html
Walk Across America for Christ. Sunday, December 5, 2010. Be Not So Subtle. Sometimes blessings are so subtle, we miss them. You and I are surrounded by blessings everyday. They're called people! Our nation is composed of over 300 million people and yet we seldom take the time to have a discussion with someone we don't know. I've found out it really isn't that difficult to start a conversation with someone. You just pretend your're a five year old and you ask a question: "Whatcha doin? I have been an out...

Walk Across America for Christ: October 2010

Walk Across America for Christ. Saturday, October 30, 2010. 24 Dogs and a Dead Alligator. They call this low country but I'm not sure why. Maybe it's because it's the southern side of South Carolina. Dogs run free here in packs of four and five. They're strays and no one cares for them, at least that's what Miss Linda from the local newspaper said. She stopped to do a brief interview of a guy the townspeople were describing as Moses. That wasn't my only encounter with multiple mutts. Over the next th...

Walk Across America for Christ: March 2011
http://walkacrossamericaforchrist.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Walk Across America for Christ. Saturday, March 19, 2011. It's been months and for whatever reason I could not access Blogger nor could I get anyone to respond to me in a manner I could understand. Now I don't know if it's all my fault or partly theirs but it has been frustrating. That being said.I'm back to the wonderful world of blogging! CNN didn't send a reporter. Oprah didn't invite us for an interview and we didn't get an offer to do a reality show! BUT behold underlying truth. The Hebrew word shama.
