The Worry Tree

A story about troubles… A carpenter I hired to help me restore an old farm house had just finished a rough day on the job. A flat tire made him lose an hour of work, his electric saw quit, and now his ancient truck refused to start. While I drove him home, he sat in stony silence. On arriving, he invited me in to meet his family. As we walked toward the front door, he paused briefly at a small tree, touching the tips of the branches with both hands. When opening the door, he underwent an amazing transformation. His tanned face was wreathed in smiles and he hugged his two small children and...

How to love children

Encouragement for parents The way we talk to our kids becomes their inner voice. One of the best ways to boost children’s self-worth is to listen like they matter. Because they do. When your children decide to talk to you and share their problems, stop everything and listen to them. There is nothing more important than that. If your child asks for a cuddle during your household chores, don’t say “later”. Your chores can wait. A cuddle only takes a few short minutes, but a child’s memory will keep forever. Children need hugs more than they need things. When you are hugging a child, always be...

Coming back to life

Who is this calling to us? “Coming Back to Life” is a song from Pink Floyd’s 1994 album The Division Bell, credited to David Gilmour. The lyrics and the haunting melody and rhythms that infuse them with mystery and power have long been a subject of awe and speculation among Pink Floyd devotees. There is a presence and aura to the work that seems to reach across from the prophetic realm of the great beyond. Could this be a message for our times, waiting for its fulfillment in our midst? Who is this who was “burned and broken” and yet yearned over us with such...

Temple in Jerusalem

UN Acknowledges Temple Mount History United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres gave an interview with Israel Radio on Friday, January 27, in which he said, among other things, that it is “completely clear that the Temple that the Romans destroyed in Jerusalem was a Jewish temple.” The Secretary-General’s comments stand in stark contrast to an action taken in the United Nations about 4 months ago in which the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) adopted a resolution pushed by Palestinians that Jewish people have zero ties to the...
