It’s a new year and my prayer is that I can redirect much of the sadness and bitterness that I still feel into something positive. I enjoy reading about such sports greats as Vince Lombardi and George Allen. I covet their attitude. Lombardi said, “It’s not whether you get knocked down, it’s whether you get up.” And George Allen said, “The big thing is not what happens to us in in life, but what we do about what happens to us.” I’m going to make that my focus this year. I have a children’s book coming out in September of this year and half of the proceeds are going to go to Prison Fellowship Ministries. In some small way I hope this helps that ministry to continue on. The book is called The Christmas Adventures of Cowboy True. The illustrators working on the project are gifted artists and I’m proud of the job they’ve done. Can’t wait for everyone to see it.
