Wisdom Knows Whom to Please I was fearful for many years. Fearful of messing up. Afraid to disappoint. Afraid to speak up. Many times in my past, when I had been honest it was not well received and came back to bite me. So, for many years (until sometime in my...
Wisdom and a Rock It seems the weather has been particularly wild all over the world. Last week many of our friends in the Carolinas were dealing with a hurricane. Today we got the remnants—torrential downpours and fierce thunder and lightning. Ours only lasted a day....
Wisdom Loves to Laugh Each night I read some Bible out loud before we pray...as Wyndham can’t hold a book and reading is too tiring for him. Last night as I was reading I verbally stumbled with a tongue-twisting word. I kept saying it wrong, repeating it, and...
Wisdom is Mind Change By Gordon Ferguson The title reminds many of us of an excellent book written by Tom Jones about how he came to view and deal with multiple sclerosis. It is a most encouraging and inspiring book, and one that I imagine Wyndham and his family have...
Wisdom Connects Anyone can say words. However, wisdom can turn words into connections. Without connection, it’s impossible to communicate on a heart-to-heart level. Wisdom connects words to the heart. Wyndham, for as long as I have known him, has been a great...

Wisdom Is “Whataburger” By Sheridan Wright I know that this tittle sounds weird...but bear with me. I have enjoyed reading “Wednesday Wisdom with Wyndham” and hearing others recount how Wyndham, in God’s wisdom, has had an impact on their lives. My reaction is always...
Wisdom Makes People Feel Special By Micah Gonet This week's post is by our grandson, Micah, who is 8 years old. He asked if he could write a "Wednesday Wisdom" about his Papa. Wyndham loves deeply...such that people want to express how much they feel loved. Thank you...
Wisdom Holds to God’s Hand Today as I ran errands I noticed several couples walking hand in hand. I reminisced and felt a little sad. I miss this. Walking together is certainly not possible. Hand holding is not easy, as Wyndham's hands are tender to the touch and...
Wisdom and Friendship By Jack Frederick It’s late, just after midnight. I'm sleepy, but I remember how I spent the day…I visited my old friend Wyndham, and his lovely wife, Jeanie. Wyndham has a few wrinkles on his brow, many of them put there by his friendship with...
Wisdom Values the Dinner Table Amazing connections happen at the dinner table, but only if we actually sit and talk at the table. Has the “art of the dinner table” been lost? Wisdom values the dinner table. Or rather, what can happen around the table. What happens at...
A few years ago Gloria made a short video, “Understanding God's Gifts," where she spoke of her cancer as a gift. ( http://www.icochotnews.com/?q=node/2725.) While cancer has taken our dear friend and certainly doesn’t feel like a gift, I have a feeling that today...
