I am reminded of a story that some of you reading this may have heard before. It takes me back to before our first grandchild, Kaylee, was born. She will soon be 13, so you can do the math.

As some of you know, I like to work with wood and build furniture and things, so I had decided that I was going to build Kaylee all new nursery furniture. It was quite an undertaking, but I set out to build a baby bed, a dressing table with drawers and a chest of drawers. They would all be made by hand and using oak lumber. (Oak is my favorite.)

Truth Jubilee, a community revival, will be at 7 p.m., on May 1-4, 202 Donna Circle in Prestonville, at Three Rivers Auction House. Local churches and musical talent will join together for a time of uplifting fellowship and praising God through music and his word.

All are invited. Free. For more information call (502) 347-9987.

Undoubtedly, this winter has been the strongest of the past decade; the snowfall has caused local residents quite a lot of grief while driving to work or on the way to drop children off at school.

A simple trip to the store became a hazardous feat because of the icy slick roads. Consequently, nobody can declare that the climate of these past months has left them unaffected. It’ll prove difficult to forget the polar vortex that whipped almost every state in the U.S. But it’s easy to ignore God, who granted us life and a reason to live.
