CAMELOT

WE NEED TO CALL ON THE LORD!

IN EVERYTHING, GIVE THANKS!
Americans will soon sit down to a sumptuous dinner and feast on foods served only on special occasions. As we fill our tummies with goodies, let’s try to focus on those who don’t have such bounty. Maybe you are faced … Continue reading

Guilt
I’m met by guilt on every day. It sweeps my peace of mind away. It starts with little things at dawn – why did I go and sleep so long? My socks don’t match – my hair’s a mess. Did … Continue reading
NO MORE SIN – NO MORE GUILT

COMMUNION OF SAINTS

I’M SORRY!
We are all sinners. We have proven that in our daily walk. Even when our intentions are good, our inmost being is being tempted by the father of lies. The devil is eager to eat us up. Sounds pretty hopeless? … Continue reading
TIMING IS EVERYTHING
I am very impatient as I think most of us are – especially living in a world full of instant communication, fast food, and getting answers to our questions immediately. We have become a society of people who want everything NOW! … Continue reading
LIFE REFLECTIONS
The autumn trees display their final brilliance before they die and leave only a skeletal remembrance of what was. Our days are numbered too. What shall we do in those final days to fulfill our final purpose on this planet? God … Continue reading
