Eyes of the Father: Making mistakes worse by trying to correct them

We all make mistakes, don't we? Sometimes those mistakes cause messes. Some of those messes are like chocolate syrup on the kitchen floor - it's messy, but relatively easy to clean up. Other messes are like toothpaste in the carpet - it's messy, and no matter how much you try to clean it up, it only gets worse. Last night, I went into Cole's room. I noticed a small spot on his carpet. It was ...

Eyes of the Father: Good intentions can be misread

I remember it as if it were yesterday. I was 10 years old, and I'd gone to the grocery store with my mother. Not wanting to trail along through the store, I sat on a bench just inside the store's entrance and waited for her to complete her shopping.

Eyes of the Father: Don’t hide away your sins from God

I've noticed lately that Chloe has a tendency to take some of her things, put them in a box, wrap them in a blanket, and either hide them under her pillow, or tuck them all around her underneath the bed sheets. I come into her room to kiss her goodnight, and I see all these mysterious lumps under the covers!

Eyes of the Father: God does the unexpected

I am a 41-year-old adult. I have a wife, a family, a career. I'm strong, confident and capable. While I don't hunt, I do engage in other manly activities such as watching sports, fixing things around the house and hogging the remote control.

Eyes of the Father: We can ask God for a ‘do-over’

Chloe was sitting in the living room one day, trying to put together a puzzle. I watched her as she'd pick up a piece, try to place it into the pieces she'd already put together and not be able to make it fit.

Eyes of the Father: God doesn’t need our help, but seeks it anyway

I had to plant some trees in the yard. Before going out to do it, I asked Cole if he'd like to help me. He jumped up, his eyes sparkling with excitement. He was more than happy to "assist."

Eyes of the Father: Don't block anyone's path to Jesus

I'm not much of a TV watcher. So when I take the time to sit down and watch a TV show, I want to be able to see it.

Eyes of the Father: Seek God’s answers before we act

I keep a small bottle of mouthwash in my truck. One night, Cole was riding in the truck with me and decided to check out his surroundings. He looked at the newspaper I had sitting on the seat. He scrutinized a CD case. Then he reached over and picked up the bottle of mouthwash.

Eyes of the Father: Knock, and the door will open

The front door of our church doesn't have a doorknob. Instead, it has a handle with a small thumb latch above it. To open the door, you have to depress the thumb latch until it clicks and pull. That's all. Easy, right?
