Admit it.  It chaps you.  You don’t like it any more than I do.  When wicked people “get away†with it – it burns you up.  And yet it seems to happen every day.  We have even set the sentiment in stone when we say, “nice guys finish last.† We expect the good guy to get burned.  We sing, “I’ve never seen the righteous forsaken,†and we want to believe it, but sometimes we wonder.  Why do the wicke...

This Sunday, May 12, is Mother’s Day.  That is a day for recognizing and showing appreciation for our moms.  Evangelist Billy Sunday perhaps overstated the matter when he declared, “Give a boy a godly mother and any old stick will do for a dad,†but it is hard to overestimate the worth of a godly mother.  I am forever grateful for the mother the Lord gave to me.  I’m grateful for her unfailing lov...
