Deep and far reaching thoughts there Scott. I grapple with many of the same questions. Do good whenever you can. Happy New Year.

Thanks Scott. I will pass your words on to my two adult sons, and my two adult daughters, the oldest one being interested in a seafaring Scotsman (an engineer officer on a cruise ship). I hope that he shares some of your wisdom. I am a retired anesthesiologist, and I also made my living having to act with life on the line. We are meant to be deciding beings, gifted free will from God. Thanks for the eloquent message to do good with the Gift. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from Virginia.

Happy belated Christmas and I wish you a very happy New Year.

St Andrew as an example of Mastery and Command is a needed man in our time, and I liked your analysis and thoughts about things today.

Moreover, Andrew was an able navigator, teaching us to use what God gave us to see through fume, smoke and mists of this fallen world and into the next.

I heard it said that when St Brendan and his monks made voyage over the great western deeps, that they would often pray to him. He even appeared to them in old story, and set them back on a right course again.

Hold Fast!
