Bentwood Texas, ROT Rally, UCOA

Debbie and I went to the UCOA meeting out at the Bentwood Texas event center in Georgetown after church today. We had very good attendance, at a great location, and fortunately the rain held off as well and we have pleasant temperatures. The main focus of the meeting was about the upcoming ROT Rally, and we were strongly encouraged to keeper eyes open while riding, to watch out for all those RVs with bikes on trailers trying to get to the rally. As someone once said, it’s going to be hot, it’s going to be crazy out there on the roads, so keep your head on a swivel and drink lots of water. Definitely a good recommendation.

A Search for Justice in Texas : The Truth

A Search for Justice in Texas : The Truth, Michael Griffith

If you are familiar my Facebook postings and the the Tragedy in Waco that happened in May 2015, as you read this you might think this is about Waco. It isn’t.

So, what is it about Tom? Get to the point!

Ok. This story is about someone in a Texas Prison. Woody Weimer allowed me to put an article (about my books) in his newsletter that gets mailed to many prison facilities to prisoners on his mailing list. Since receiving Woody’s newsletter, I have received a bunch of requests for my books. This fellow Michael Griffith sent me a request, and included a page that is essentially an advertisement for a book he has written. Now, to be clear, I have only just begun to read it, but I wanted to publish the information about his book since I thought it might be of interest to some of you that follow my blog and Facebook page. All the details are listed below, including a link that will download it to your web browser. It is a free download.

Here is a link to his book; Michael Griffith – A Search For Justice In Texas : The Truth

bike night, Bull McCabe's

We had the UCOA Officers meeting this evening at Bull McCabe’s, which coincidentally is also where the bike night was this evening. So, naturally I had to take a few pictures. We had a good officers meeting, and some good fellowship. Enjoy the pics;

Relationship – Chaplains Moment for UCOA May 21st

15 Monday May 2017

How does my relationship with God work? Well, it works something like this;

I get up and I get ready for work. I plan to spend time some quiet time reading and praying at around 11am. I get to work, and I start on one of my tasks, and then take a break for a meeting after about an hour, then back to my task, and low and behold it is lunch time and I missed my 11am appointment with God. I tell myself that I will do better, and sometimes I do make time for God at work, but sometimes I don’t. I tell myself it isn’t about legalism, and that God will understand if my scheduled time with Him gets overridden with yet another urgent activity at work. God is VERY understanding, believe me I KNOW!

Is this the way it is supposed to work? No, but the good news is that God is very VERY forgiving, and I can tell you that His patience exceeds even the most patient of us. Some of you might say that I am playing with God, and that if I was serious I would keep my plan and not let it slip from day to day. I can only tell you that my relationship with God is just about keeping an appointment. Not that having a dedicated time to spend with God is a bad thing, in fact it is something I really want to do, but He talks to me as he is working in and around me throughout the day. I am convinced He loves me more than I even love myself.

If you think about it, that last sentence would have to be true, because I am unable to keep from failing over and over again. I am simply unable make myself do what I know I want to do. The Apostle Paul explained this in;

Romans 7:19 (NLT)

I want to do what is right, but I can’t. I want to do what is good, but I don’t. I don’t want to do what is wrong, but I do it anyway.

Paul goes on to further explain this principle, but the answer for “How do I overcome this dilemma?” is in verse 25, which says “Thank God! The answer is in Jesus Christ our Lord.”. You see there is a solution to my problem, and it is Jesus. He has all the power I need to overcome the sin that is in me. When I let Jesus take control of my situation, I cannot fail. When I take control, I am often doomed to failure.

I don’t want to fail. My desire is to trust Jesus, how about you?

Escondido’s Annual Celebration at Little Woodrow’s

Escondidos Annual Celebration, Little Woodrow's

After lunch, we headed over to Little Woodrow’s for the Escondidos MC annual celebration. Boy, did we make a mistake having lunch beforehand. Turns out they were serving excellent BBQ plates with chicken, sausage, coleslaw, grilled corn on the cob and of course beans. Maybe I’ll make a better decision next time. The DJ provided music to go with lunch, Little Woodrow’s provided drinks (we had their excellent ice water), and there was lots of shade and places to sit and talk. A good day.
