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.
You are a Converser, not a Converter
God is pithy. He can transform one simple sentence into a powerhouse of truth that can change your life. I woke up hearing Him speak this phrase to me, "Daughter, you are a Converser, not a Converter." I'm a Converser - one who has conversations - one who converses with another about the love of … Continue reading You are a Converser, not a Converter
‘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.

Thank you Lord for being willing to kill, the animals in Genesis You called good. You took their life and skinned their hide, To cover us … Continue reading Thank You Lord.
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
Don’t bark back.
As a parent, I'm always trying to teach my kids some lesson or another. We're supposed to, right? It says so right there on page 36 in the Parenting Manual (page 2 in the Cliff Notes version). But it seems the more I talk, the less they listen. Jesus has many names in the Bible. … Continue reading Don’t bark back.
