#274 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Saturday, June 11, 2022 I guess this is crazy, and you might think it is psycho mysticism. I will be on my back porch, thinking things over, and I will have a flash of insight, an inspired thought–and a mockingbird will land in front of me. I’m not saying every time I see a mockingbird God is speaking to me–not at all. It’s just an occasional link. But it is very reassuring–and it makes me laugh when it happens.
Afterword: I confess to an internal proclivity–To Kill a Mockingbird was my alltime favorite novel to teach. (see below)

Yea for Tuesdays! Yea for golf!
#275 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Tuesday, July 19, 2022 I shot the best round of golf today that I have ever shot in my life. And I swear it is not the golf–it is knowing that golf really is a spiritual exercise–and I could play crappy tomorrow and it doesn’t matter–and the lessons are internal and have very little to do with my score. I love God so much for meeting me where I am and moving me forward from that spot.

#276 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Thursday, July 7, 2022 If you accept the metaphor that life is a journey (one of my favorites), then you have to believe in a destination. My question is this: Is the destination going to feel more like getting home or something completely different? Or both? I only know in the depths of my heart that I’m going to love getting there.

#277 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Monday, July 11, 2022 I love this quote: John Calvin once said that “each of us is an actor on a stage and God is the audience.” Think of that! God is enjoying watching your life. Doesn’t that make you want to pick up your performance?

#278 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Tuesday, July 12 My wife told me HOW GOD SPOKE TO HER TODAY. She was watching on the news about outer space discoveries, and she realized that our Creator is still creating–our science will never catch up–and how humbling and comforting it is to be under His personal care. I love my wife.

#280 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Friday, July 1, 2022 I find air travel difficult because I’ve never enjoyed being trapped in cramped spaces. Of course, I wouldn’t enjoy the four day drive from Dallas to Seattle. When I get into the third hour of the flying experience, I have to resort to my mantra: (Inhale) Lord Jesus Christ (exhale) have mercy on me. It’s very calming.
