Nuggets and a Cookie for the Heart

Nuggets and a Cookie for the Heart

As I pulled into the convenience store parking lot, I was drawn to a man with fuzzy gray hair sitting in his wheelchair. I parked the car but kept staring as he skillfully maneuvered his wheelchair, avoiding any potential collision. He tightly clutched a bag of chicken nuggets as he alternated one hand with the other to move closer to the end of the building. I finally stepped from the car to give him water and scripture cards to read. His marble- blue eyes glistened, and he dropped his nuggets when I bumped his arm with my clumsy self. 05/01/2024 09:00 AM

As is usually the case, there sure is a lot going on in Bowie County right now , some good and some not so much.It has been said that it is what we focus on that becomes the most important, so it makes sense to me if we focus on the positive, the world will be more positive. 05/01/2024 09:00 AM

Bus Tickets for Two

Bus Tickets for Two

It was an ordinary morning that transformed into an extraordinary mission by a single phone call. “There’s a couple who need bus tickets,” the voice on the other end of the line explained, filled with uncertainty. “They’re stranded. I’m not sure who they are or how to handle this. But someone mentioned you might help.” In moments like these, decisions can’t dawdle in the gray; they demand the clarity of black or white dancing in my head. Yet, there I was, nestled in security, a good thirty-minute drive from any potential action on my part, and I wrestled with my decision about whether and how to step into this unfolding story. 04/24/2024 09:00 AM
