Good day, beloved family. This morning I began to think of faith. I have been going through the Andrew Murray book on Hebrews, and he is now at Hebrews 11. Many call that the faith chapter, as the writer goes over the people of faith in the Old Testament. This sent me down my morning…

Two of me
Do you ever feel like you are two people in your walk with God? I often do. One of me is full of faith and love for God, desiring God above all else (that’s typically the morning “me.” The other me is living the day to day, hardly thinking of God as I face the…
My prayer for you (and me)
Greetings, my fellow travelers on this glorious journey, I’ve told you a couple of times that I have been reading a book by Andrew Murray called the Holiest of All. I am still reading it. It is super big and super rich. You can’t read too much at once. I think I may finish…
And here, I thought it couldn’t get any better.
Hello me dear beloved family, I have not been getting up as early lately. No sunrises. No hour of quiet before the house stirs. I blame Jack (our yorkiepoo). He was a very faithful alarm clock. But now, he is literally sleeping on the job. I think he (and I) are in winter hibernation…
We shall be changed.
Hello beloved, It’s been a minute. I hope this finds you all trusting. My initial thought is to say, I hope this finds you all “well.” But I’m not even sure what that means anymore. Does “well” mean…Not sick, happy. Does it mean all your dreams are coming true and everything’s “comin’ up roses”? …

Hello beloved, As I type, the winds of a minor hurricane are whipping around our home, sheets of rain pelting the sides. You get used to these things when you live in Florida. At 6 am I got an automated call from Flagler County Emergency Services telling us that there was a tornado warning…

That Where I am….
Hello glorious family! When I was young, I thought that when I died, I would go to a great mansion in the sky. It would be my very own mansion with lots of rooms, and probably an in-ground pool, and a giant backyard full of trees, and all the other amenities that I could want. …
For the Joy…..
For many years, all my life really, when I’ve heard the term, “the Joy of the Lord”, for example: “The joy of the Lord is my strength.”, I’ve thought of it as the joy the Lord gives me. I experience joy in knowing Him, being loved by Him. The joy of having the Lord in…
Lions, and Giants, and Bears! Oh My!
Hello beloved, I have been thinking of the words of God to the children of Israel, when they had again and again, not believed in the Lord’s ability and faithfulness. He had delivered them from Egypt and cared for them in the wilderness, through amazing miracles, and brought them all the way to the threshold…
