The dreary, rainy, gloomy days as of late make it hard to stay up in the morning. I just want to stay in my jammies and piles of pillows and fluffy blankets and drift on the Slumber Ocean. Sigh. I did stay up this morning and read the devotional in Love Letters from God, by Ivan Tait. I Really like that book. It’s set up by the date of each… Continue Reading
Provision for the Journey
I went to bed early…er, anyway. Before midnight! I didn’t waste time looking at things I can’t have right now (well, for the most part), and was determined to go to bed before midnight. Maybe I should say Turn Everything Off And Go To Sleep, since I go to bed at a relatively decent time most nights, I just stay up reading, watching TV (Netflix app on my phone is… Continue Reading

While so much can be found in His presence…peace, healing, restoration, deliverance…those things begin in His heart. The powerful presence of… Continue Reading

About three years ago, I entered into a relationship with Facebook. It was fun at first. Became an obsession for a while. Then, things began to change. Subtle at first. Things you get used to after a while, and forget why you were so irritated to begin with by the change. But this time, Facebook crossed the line. I knew it was coming. The signs were everywhere. Other people were… Continue Reading
No Longer a Rebel Without a Cause
I’ll do what I want, thank you very much I’ve been a rebel as long as I can remember. In my younger days, rebelling against the status quo, against being “good”, against any kind of authority. And, in particular, against anything having to do with God. Sin was something to be proud of, not avoid. And I didn’t avoid much sin, truth be told. I realized today that God still… Continue Reading
