Will Rogers on “Pumpkin Heads & Election Day”

Will RogersYou’re not going to believe this, but my birthday is October 31. When I was a kid I remember getting dressed up for trick-or-treat.

I’m Ready to Go. – Psalm 116 NIV 2 Minute Devotional

My grandmother was well into her 90s when we gathered around her. It would be the last time I would see her in this life. She looked up at me, smiling, her blue eyes twinkling, and said: “I’m ready to go.” I’ll never forget that moment. My uncle told me that the short time she …

Praise the Lord- Psalm 145 NASB 2 Minute Devotional

Years ago, when I was a teenager, I had no interest in God. I certainly didn’t want to follow Him or be accountable for the wrongdoing and sin in my life. I was in a downward spiral toward destruction. In this Psalm, it says God will destroy the wicked, but I am so thankful for …

Will RogersThe inheritance tax, as Will Rogers calls it, is today more affectionately known as the “death tax.” If you make the mistake of being too successful over the course of your life, the government feels obliged to take a cut. Wait a minute, you’ve paid all the taxes on that “wealth” – worked hard, …

So much money is flowing out of Washington, it like a dam burst and flooded the entire valley. There’s a $700 billion wall of money roaring down the valley covering the countryside with cash. The original allocation was designed …
