This year has brought a lot into focus. The book of James says (paraphrased) we should rejoice in trials of all kinds because God is preparing us to be complete. Hard verse to understand and even harder to do. So here is why its a Merry Christmas at the Johnsons: Jesus is our Lord. We…

It’s been quite some time since my last post. I’ve had two posts that have been developed and almost ready to send and then … the next thing happened. This theme is basically what I feel convicted to write about today. This may be obvious to many, but when you are struggling with anything –…

Incredible! I was so tremendously blessed recently by the strong presence of our community. We had the walk I have been mentioning for a couple of posts previous to this and the turnout (over 75 in person and many more virtually), love, and support was incredible. Thank you for all the participation videos sent from…

It’s been a good bit from my last post, for all of the right reasons really. My wife and I had planned a two week trip to do a few things. Top of the list was to get everyone together to “witness” and celebrate my youngest daughter’s engagement! Yay!! We are so excited for them…

About 23ish years ago my wife and I had the opportunity to take our firstborns (yes twins) to Kauai with our wonderful friends who are now framily (friends/family). The twins were 19 months old. I know for many, that immediately send chills up your spine thinking of a six hour flight with two 19 month…

It’s been over a week since I last posted and I’ve missed writing down my thoughts and reflections. It’s been a busy time and I’ll do my best to transfer some of what God has been doing in our lives into this post today. For the last eight years in a row, this timeframe has…

As many of you know, I am an engineer and have been blessed to oversee Operations in both chemical manufacturing and also the most amazing water utility organization. There is always a lot going on in these areas and you typically have responsibility for the most support staff in the organization, meaning lots of people…
