Devotion from Funeral Service Our grandmother was an amazing person with a heart overflowing with love for her husband and family. She cared for family throughout her life and always kept the latest news about each of us at the top of her mind. You could see this love for her family when she came […]
Read MoreRejoice in the Lord Always
I’m thankful as this year closes for having the opportunity to work with some inspiring people. First on that list is Susan Acuna from Literacy Council. Through her leadership, the Council has become the largest in the US, perhaps even the world. Working with her over the years has been among my greatest blessings. Her […]
Read MoreSWFL Sustainability Summit
After over a year of hard work and sleepless nights, we finally concluded the inaugural SWFL Sustainability Summit yesterday at Harborside in downtown Fort Myers. I have joked with people several times when they asked me why I did it. I tell them that my friend Terry Cerullo asked me to take over his event […]

The one thing that I now remember from the last time my dear wife was pregnant is how difficult it was for her and me. She’s been sick this pregnancy, the normal stuff. Throwing up, nausea, headaches. There’s been nothing out of the ordinary, as if it were ordinary. It reminds me of the passage […]

I’m so blessed and incredibly happy with the professional success that the Lord has allowed me to meet […]
Read MoreIn Jesus I Have Everything
It’s really hard to keep my mind quiet some times. I keep thinking about things I don’t have and push myself harder to provide for my family. Sometimes I want to become like the Old Testament man which God raised up. Except the man I’m thinking of supported his whole family, and God sheared off his ability to provide […]

I have a saying: “the harder you work, the harder you work.” Nobody gets it. No matter how I intone my voice or even explain it, I really don’t think it makes sense. The sane person would drop it and use a cliche. The rest would really be no the worse for wear. I don’t […]
Read MoreRestless Tonight
I’m restless tonight. My mind won’t turn off; I have been spending time consumed with analyzing things in my life that should be simply glossed over. I’m consumed with being successful. I want to make an impact and be good at what I do. I want to be an expert, yet I find myself only […]
Read MoreWriting is Therapy
Writing for me can be cathartic. Sometimes, when I hit these metal road bumps, I can’t shake the feelings of inadequacy, feelings like I don’t fit in, like I’m not good enough. Sometimes, writing for me becomes more than words. It becomes more like picking splinters out of my mind. Sometimes. Other times, I write […]
