For the past year I have been one of two regulars who attend our local house of prayer meetings. (The other being the founder and leader.) Four days a week we worshipped and interceeded for our local community. Some days others joined us, but most of the time it was just the two of us. … Continue reading “Thank you for digging the well so I could come and drink.”
Prayer
He’s dying to speak with you.
God has a great sense of humor. I was sitting in quiet, trying to pray and I felt like I hit a wall. I couldn't hear His voice. Then I heard the expression, "He's dying to speak with you." I laughed out loud. He's not just "eager" to talk with us. He literally died so … Continue reading He’s dying to speak with you.
‘Selah’ – first. ‘So that’ – second.
"May God be gracious to us and bless us and make His face shine upon us - Selah - so that Your ways may be known on earth, Your salvation among all nations." ~ Psalm 67:1-2 The phrase "so that" is one of the most underlined concepts in my Bible. I would be so excited … Continue reading ‘Selah’ – first. ‘So that’ – second.
Communion- On the night He was betrayed
Have you ever stopped to wonder at the timing of when Jesus asked to celebrate the Passover with His disciples? On the night He was betrayed, Jesus took the bread and gave thanks... On the night He was betrayed... The very night He was betrayed. A betrayal that would accelerate His path to the cross. … Continue reading Communion- On the night He was betrayed
Communion – time to see it again
Over the summer God gave me an invitation to take Communion. Only this time, I wasn't to wait for the monthly rotation in the Sunday service. I felt Him draw me to take Communion daily, in the privacy of my room, alone with Him. Armed with only a pretzel stick and pomegranate juice, I began … Continue reading Communion – time to see it again
For God So Loved _______
Happy Thanksgiving! In my prayer time this morning, I asked God to speak to me. I simply said, “What would you like to say to me today?” He answered me quickly and clearly. He spoke John 3:16-17 over me, but instead of saying, “For God so loved the ‘world’ - He said, “For God so … Continue reading For God So Loved _______
What I heard when I just listened…
These words below are what I felt like God said to me this morning. I just put myself before Him, pen and paper in hand, and this is what I heard. If you choose to read on, read slowly, and allow yourself time to absorb whatever God may have for you. I love you. Come … Continue reading What I heard when I just listened…
Christmas Cards – in April!
April 25 seems like a good time as any to take down last year's Christmas cards. And an even better time to blog about them! (Come on - I know I'm not the only one who still has them hanging up somewhere in the house...) If I can blog about Christmas on the fourth of July, why … Continue reading Christmas Cards – in April!
Moving Sidewalks
I love the moving sidewalks at the airport. Not only do I zip to my destination, but I have this sense of superiority as I blow past the people walking in the same direction I am. "Eat my dust suckers!" (Yeah, I know, real mature.) But I really do wonder why they would choose to … Continue reading Moving Sidewalks
Writer’s block
I don't know how long one has to write before they can consider themselves 'a writer.' But since I am experiencing writer's block, I guess I'll just go with it. Thankfully a dead guy spoke to me about it during my reading this morning. And I think I'm gonna put my pen down and listen... … Continue reading Writer’s block
