Wow! I hope you saw all the other pages first! 

I just needed a place to say I do not make any money from this site. The costs to register the site, develop it, and keep it available to the public is born privately. I figured I should use some of the talents the Lord gifted me with for His kingdom. I hope it is a blessing to you. 

The idea first came to me while our parish was doing a weekly "watch party" for Season 1 of "The Chosen". In the episode on the Wedding at Cana, it starts with Jesus as a twelve year old, when He was found at the temple, saying to Mary "If not now, when?" Then, at the wedding, when Mary discovers they ran out of wine, she goes to Jesus and tells Him. He tells her it is not yet His time. She responds with "If not now, when?"  Obviously there is some artistic license, but it got me to thinking, I've been involved with technology all my life and make my living by it, but I never really did anything for the Lord with it. 

Since the Covid phenomena hit a few years back and work asked us to work from home for a time, I began taking neighborhood walks at lunch or after work, and instead of just walking, I started devotional praying. I realized this neighborhood was a 'garden' the Lord put me in. I didn't know most of the people in the square mile of blocks around me, but I felt led to pray for them. I don't know if I will ever see the effects of the prayers I've prayed these past few years here on earth, but I have faith that as a pebble is thrown into the water and the tiny ripples move outward, so too, by God's grace, the prayers I offer up for others will be blessed by God and bring fruit for His kingdom. 

How about you? Has God given you a talent that you've never thought to put to use for His kingdom? Why don't you pray about it, to see if He is leading you in some way. 

God bless you! And may we meet one day in heaven, praising our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!
