"If God is able to place the stars in their sockets and suspend the sky like a curtain, do you think it remotely possible that God is able to guide your life? If your God is mighty enough to ignite the sun, could it be that he is mighty enough to light your path? If he cares enough about the

I found myself wondering, “What would it take for me to visit with the president of the United States?” I’ve seen President Bush surrounded by all sorts of different people. How could I get to spend some time with him—even for just ten minutes?

It’s every airplane passenger’s nightmare -- getting stuck near a crying baby. I was manning the ticket counter at a busy airport when the sound of a sobbing infant filled the air. As the next passenger stepped up to the desk, he glanced at the tot and rolled his eyes. "Don’t worry," I said to him

Wayne Hariston tells this story (Reader’s Digest)
My wife and I get along just great—except she’s a back-seat driver second to none. On my way home from work one day, my cell phone rang as I merged onto a freeway bypass. It was my wife. By chance, she had entered the bypass right behind me.

Israel was No Fluke
I'm a laid-back White Sox fan. All my life, I have had to deal with being out-numbered by Cubs fans. Both Sox and Cub fans have long dreamt of a City series, where the two teams are competing during the World Series. That could happen this year. Statistically speaking, we

What if I were to tell you I’ve taped a $1 bill under a pew somewhere in here this morning? Some of you are already looking for it! I didn’t even tell you you could have it! I didn’t even say I really did it! Still, if there’s even a slight chance that I might have done that, some of you are

I like the story about a professor who sat at his desk one evening working on the next day’s lectures. His housekeeper had laid that days mail and papers at his desk and he began to shuffle through them discarding most to the wastebasket. He then noticed a magazine, which was not even addressed to
