What’s the first impression you want to give people?
This is my goal at least, sometimes it is not easy to do. I do pray for those around me that cut me off in traffic because it’s the best way to respond in traffic. Most people won’t know I’m doing it but I do. In a restaurant I bless my food and other people will see that, but I don’t do it just for that reason.
Who is the most famous or infamous person you have ever met?
I met Jerry Clower once going into a hospital in Jackson Mississippi. He was a big man. I had never seen him up close before but he looked like he was about 6 feet 10 inches tall and at least as wide as some doors. When he played football for Mississippi State, I wouldn’t have wanted him tackling me.
What was your favorite subject in school?
Recess
What does it mean to be a kid at heart?
Look for the fun in your daily life. Seek the Lord and learn to just have fun even when things don’t seem that way. Don’t make fun of a serious problem but don’t let it drag you down either. Give your problems to the Lord and don’t worry about them after that.
When you think of the word “successful,” who’s the first person that comes to mind and why?
I know He is the son of God and His destiny was to be successful in His mission, but look at what He did! He came into the world and when his ministry started he showed the world who God really is. He showed the people that God loves them, whether they were sinners or not. Regardless of who they were or what they had done, God loves them. It’s the same message that is being shared about Jesus Christ and His Father today, if you hear a message from a Bible believing pastor.
Success came many years after His disciples had been killed or died, but it is still happening today! Don’t consider any gospel other than the one in the Bible about Jesus and the love of God. He’s still in the business of caring for and loving you in the places where you hurt. God loves you and that’s the message of success in this world today.
What would you do if you lost all your possessions?
I know it sounds strange, but I would start again with the help of my family, and the church I attend.
How often do you walk or run?
I usually get about four thousand steps in while cutting the grass. Sometimes twice per week.
What does your ideal home look like?
One with a porch all around it, a central fireplace, wood floors, and friends to share it with.
What motivates you?
Every day God gives me to live, I try my best to be thankful for His grace and mercy towards me. Try thanking Him each day when you wake up, you’ll be surprised at the blessings you will find when you do.
What do you enjoy most about writing?
I enjoy sharing the love and the message of God’s salvation with anyone who will read my blog. Since I can’t get out and go on mission trips this is the best way I can do that.
