#1751 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
From Elizabeth Elliot: George MacDonald said, “If you knew what God knows about death you would clap your listless hands.” But instead I find old people in North America just buying into this whole youth obsession. I think growing older is a wonderful privilege. I want to glorify God in every stage of my life.

March 10, 2026 lifeline — (n.) — something which provides help or support that is needed for success or survival. God equips us all with lifelines. The reason we don’t use them much is because we think they’re supposed to be for us. “For whoever desires to keep his life will lose it, and whoever will lose his life for My sake will find it.” (Matthew 16:25)

March 30, 2026 “It’s good to do uncomfortable things. It’s weight training for life.” –Anne Lamott
Life is a journey and God doesn’t want me to stand still (at least, not for long). In His faithfulness He will prod me to move, sometimes in a direction I am resistive to going. That is when it’s most important for me to listen; that is spiritual nourishment for my soul.

Father knows best…#1754 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
March 22, 2026 I had this doctrinal discussion about “Once saved, always saved” with a Catholic friend:

Me: If doing whatever you want is contrary to what God wants, then you haven’t really understood God’s love.

Family Sunday, broken…#1756 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
January 2, 2026 Several people who are close to me are going through divorces. It is very sad when the person you committed to somehow becomes the obstacle to your own happiness. I believe God can heal any marital discord, but both people must be willing to turn to Him. Alas, as discord grows, hearts harden.
