Sep­tem­ber 1, 2024 Live music. I believe God gave me the gift of writ­ing, and write I must. Musi­cal­ly, I’ve only iden­ti­fied one skill: lis­ten­ing (I can’t even dance). As I lis­ten to these folks, I real­ize how incred­i­bly gift­ed each one is, and what a joy it must be to play togeth­er. Alas, HOW GOD PLAYED THROUGH ME TODAY was not meant to be. Blessed be the name of the Lord.

July 25, 2024 Over 100 feet of putts today! Just one of those days. I have to shrug, because I’m not known as a very good put­ter. They just kept rolling in. The Holy Spir­it says I can learn as much from a lip-out as from one that drops in. Just depends when.

August 30, 2024 This Ten Com­mand­ments-in-the-class­room dri­ves me crazy. I am tired of Chris­tians who want to close our bor­ders and con­trol wom­en’s bod­ies and dis­tance them­selves from the down­trod­den and shout Amer­i­ca First! and use the Bible as a rule­book. I want Chris­tians who want to do jus­tice and love mer­cy and walk humbly with our God.

August 12, 2024 This I believe: God wants to give me His love and peace and joy abun­dant­ly. Some­times when I sit still and slow my breath­ing and qui­et my mind, I can feel His yearn­ing. I have to learn to receive, to be more open, less fear­ful. It is all about clogged arter­ies. I can­not fix them but I can ask Him to.

August 9, 2024 St. John of the Cross: “The lan­guage of God is the expe­ri­ence God writes into our lives.” We were ready to move to Dal­las six months before we actu­al­ly did. We had an offer on our house in New Braun­fels, found one we loved here, and put down $500 earnest mon­ey. Then our buy­er backed out and the whole deal fell through. I was dev­as­tat­ed. Six years lat­er it’s clear that house would­n’t have worked at all, and we love where we end­ed up. That is the lan­guage of God.

July 23, 2024 I have been lis­ten­ing to clas­si­cal music late­ly. I like the way it does­n’t approach my mind directly–more like it is mov­ing through the under­cur­rents. The Holy Spir­it does that too.

Fam­i­ly Sun­day on the run…
#1182 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
August 6, 2024 Our mini-fam­i­ly reunion in Galve­ston was upend­ed by an unre­lent­ing attack of mos­qui­toes. We all came home a day ear­ly. What I trust will not be lost in this unfor­tu­nate event is the two and half days of qual­i­ty fam­i­ly time that only strength­ens the bonds of love.
