Many of us find our identity in what we do. But what happens when our career comes to an abrupt end? What happens when that job is no longer there? Are we still ourselves? Does our identity change? A pastor for many years, Ed struggled to adjust to a life without the pulpit. He eventually discovered there is much more to who we are than what we do. Could it be that change is an opportunity for a renewed sense of purpose?
When those close to us suffer, it's only natural to want to help. But what do you say when someone's life falls apart and suffering becomes their reality? How can you show you care?

Sometimes we worry too much about the future. Ed stopped making plans more than two weeks out after his ALS diagnosis. Why? Tomorrow is not guaranteed—for any of us. When we worry about tomorrow, we often miss out on the beauty, richness, and fulfillment of today. Could living for today be what's best for us, and could it even free us from the worries of tomorrow?

Wow, what a song. I happened to create this video on the anniversary of my mom's passing in 1986. Purely a coincidence, I had been planning to make a video for this song for some time, and I just happened to create it on this day. It's a little bit narcissistic, since I do have siblings who were as equally important to my mom, but I chose to make this my own personal remembrance of my mom. She was a Godly woman, one of those types of people who everyone wanted to be around. God bless you, Mom. I love you.
I really hope this song touches your heart like it did mine. Now more than ever we have to realize that we need salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. We need to approach Christ a with soft, humble heart with open arms.
