Love this quote from CS Lewis…
#1697 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
August 30, 2026 “The trouble about the duty of forgiveness is that you do it with all your might on Monday and then find on Wednesday that it hasn’t stayed put and all has to be done over again.”
So true. Forgiving someone for something is not an event. It is a perpetual exercise of the heart muscle.

August 29, 2026 An afternoon at the theater followed by a great dinner at the Lazy Dog, served by the inimitable Dylan (yes, named after my boy Bob). I think most of the guys would agree that the best thing about our senior men’s group is the relationships (especially if you add the wives). Now, if I could just beat these guys… Are You listening, Lord?

August 5, 2026 What some people are now bemoaning as “socialism” is, in fact, the will of God. “…on earth as it is in heaven.”

“Just open your heart and that’s a start…” –Moody Blues
#1700 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
August 11, 2026 God is ONLY good. Some think that He is only Christian, and if He is going to accomplish good on this earth He will have to do it through His church. (We just have the inside track.) When the Muslim doctor heals a (any) patient, that is the work of the Holy Spirit. When the Buddhist farmer donates to the local food bank, the Holy Spirit did that. When the atheist supports the women’s shelter, yep, thank You Holy Spirit! God is not looking for a label to decide if He can use us. God is looking for people who want to do good. The Holy Spirit will open the door.

August 14, 2026 Thoughts and prayers are a good place to start, but if I hope to stay in step with the Holy Spirit, I better keep moving.

#1702 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
August 31, 2026 The most important response I can make to the Holy Spirit is to allow Her to change me. Where there is discord, let there be peace — where there is anger, let there be compassion — where there is impatience, let there be calm — where there is fear, let there be love. This is why the Holy Spirit enters our hearts — to transform us from the inside out.

July 1, 2026 This is my youngest, Ayla, age 8, who is an artist. These were unsolicited drawings. She certainly got the golf part right, but I’m a little embarrassed about the cocktail. I try to only have one, and I definitely prefer an old-fashioned to a martini. Thank You for Ayla, Lord
