By: Gary L. Hutchens Happiness, or its absence, is on the mind of a great many people. It is the subject of countless articles and books designed to educate people on how to be happy. It is subjective by nature, largely because it is based upon personal likes and pleasures that are subject to change at most any time. Ask twenty different people what makes them happy, and you’ll likely get twenty different answers, and those same twenty people may change their answers based upon what day of the week or time of day it is.
By: Gary L. Hutchens The word “if” is a little word with big implications. We use this word on a frequent basis. It indicates a condition upon which a subsequent action or result will take place, and it is used with both a positive and a negative emphasis.
By: Gary L. Hutchens Being a Christian is not just wearing a title. The name Christian is not an identification of some segment of our life. Being a Christian is who I am and what I am. Christianity is not a part of my life, relegated to prescribed time periods during certain days of the week. Christianity is my life, my whole life, 24/7.
By: Gary L. Hutchens Tomorrow we celebrate Labor Day, a federal holiday set aside to honor the working people of this nation. The first Labor Day was celebrated on Sept. 5, 1882 in New York City. It was made a national holiday in 1894. While the holiday was originally designed to recognize organized labor, it has become a holiday for all workers. For many, it marks the end of summer and begins the activities of the fall season. It is somewhat interesting that a day designated as Labor Day is celebrated with a day taken off from laboring.
