August 19, 1984 I was 12 years old. My oldest brother made sure I was in church just about every Sunday. The building is still there but a different church occupies it now. I consider my self non denominational today but this particular church brought together people of every race! We had the most delicious country meals ever prepared by the ladies of the Church. Sunday, after church us kids would play and they would set up picnic tables. I can't help but smile when I Look back on those days that seem like a lifetime ago, yet are memories that I truly hope I will never, ever forget.
I was presented this Bible the Sunday after I was Baptized. The lyrics of the song "If that isn't love" really speaks volumes about the feeling that I have this very moment as I type this: He left the splendor of heaven Knowing His destiny Was the lonely hill of Golgotha There to lay down His life for me And if that isn't love Then the ocean is dry There's no stars in the sky And the little sparrows can't fly Yeah if that isn't love Then heaven's a myth There's no feeling like this If that isn't love Even in death He remembered The thief hanging by His side Then he spoke of love and compassion And He took him to paradise ================================================================= Father in heaven, I ask for those reading this to be blessed with an abundance so magnificent they will think back to this simple post as the point they remembered a turn around. Not to think of me, nor my Company. Father I only ask they remember you and what power and Glory you have commanded. I pray this Nation remember the Cross destroyed racial tensions, only man keeps it alive. We are all Brothers and Sisters with the blood of Christ in us. Bonding us as Unique Individuals but ... yet sharing all important characteristics. With the minor details of skin, hair, eye color being not a difference.... but a unique attribute to our individuality. This Nation Needs the Cross as a reminder that Christ loved equally. Amen.

Bathtub Refinishing Garland Texas Area Prepare yourself, as well as your Bathtub, Tile or Shower
I realize that having refinishing work completed is at once exciting and inconvenient. Either you can’t wait to see the finished project, or you have the feeling of the 'what if' such as "what if they just rush in and then leave, what if the technician has never even refinished before and this is the first job they have done (it's more common than you may think with large companies) the 'what if' can steal your joy of what should be an exciting experience. For that reason, I encourage you to deal with an owner / operated company. We have all heard the saying "if you want something right you have to do it yourself" well, that is how I feel about going into my customers home! The truth is, this is not a quick and easy process. Everything from weather conditions to the dust conditions inside the home effect the finished product. That's not saying the weather has to be perfect, Just saying the technician needs to understand how the weather for that day will effect the coating so it can be properly mixed. I know we all want the best price for what we get. Keep this in mind, when correctly completed a refinished surface should last just as long as a new porcelain bathtub. A new porcelain bathtub has a life expectancy of 20 years. Synthetic porcelain has a life expectancy of 20+ years too! However, the sad part is epoxy paint is still being used by some refinishing companies and even though that is bathtub painting, they are calling it refinishing. Epoxy paint was never meant for bathtub refinishing! It is a very tough paint. However, the word to remember here is paint. It is painted on top of the surface. We also know that you’ll find a surprising amount of discussion and differing opinions about the type of coating to use, the length of time before use and what to clean the surface with. The reason for that is because so many professionals are using products that simply are NOT meant for refinishing. I have seen everything from car paint, Epoxy, Lacquer even wall paint and Kilz sealant used on bathtubs and tile. Please understand If you hire the right professional you are going to increase the value of your home but you have to use a knowledgeable professional that uses synthetic porcelain and please resist any urge to cut corners based on a friend — or stranger’s — advice.
