The last March­ing Order Mon­day of 2022…
#421 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Tues­day, Octo­ber 25, 2022 God wants His for­give­ness to sink down into my heart. I so often just give it lip ser­vice as it pass­es by my mouth. It’s total forgiveness–for my wrong turns, for my ego­tis­ti­cal for­ays, for my bla­tant (or not) self­ish­ness, for the hurt­ful things I have done. I got a fresh start. That is why He says “You must be born again.” But the sin does­n’t end at the rebirth. Through­out my rugged jour­ney, the slate keep clean­ing itself. Which leads me to my next march­ing order: *Accept for­give­ness on a dai­ly basis–what I do is more impor­tant than what I have done.

Tues­day’s child is full of grace…
#422 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Thurs­day, Sep­tem­ber 8, 2022 I shall write to the glo­ry of God. This is no hero­ic accom­plish­ment. I shall also play golf to the glory…and cook to the glory…and read to the glo­ry. To the glo­ry is sim­ply rec­og­niz­ing and enjoy­ing His abundance–and His abun­dance con­tains mul­ti­tudes of man­i­fes­ta­tions. “And what­so­ev­er ye do, do it hearti­ly, as to the Lord, and not unto men.” (Colos­sians 3:23)

Wednes­day, Octo­ber 26, 2022 Some­times I won­der because my life seems so cloistered–am I just sit­ting by the way­side watch­ing the world go by? Yet I feel that I am where God wants me to be. Clois­tered­ness has a lot of pos­i­tive attrib­ut­es, espe­cial­ly when accom­pa­nied by con­tent­ment. “To every­thing there is a sea­son, and a time to every pur­pose under heav­en.” You ini­ti­ate, Lord. Give me the grace to respond.

Tues­day, Novem­ber 22, 2022 It shocks me to real­ize that God was with me every bit as much when I was a 19 year old dropout hip­pie hedo­nist as He is with me now as I write this. He is the one who is the same yes­ter­day, today and forever–we are the ones who are sup­posed to change.

#425 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Mon­day, Novem­ber 21, 2022 I used to ask my stu­dents in a good-natured way, “Is it fun being you?” My goal was not an exis­ten­tial cri­sis but rather a gen­tle reminder that it is sup­posed to be. Thank You, Lord, that it is fun being me.

#426 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Mon­day, Decem­ber 5, 2022 One agree­ment I have made with the Lord is that I am not to con­cern myself with how often or by how many my writ­ing project posts are being read. The work is col­lab­o­ra­tive, but cir­cu­la­tion is strict­ly His depart­ment. There are cer­tain posts that I want cer­tain peo­ple (usu­al­ly ones very dear to me) to read, hop­ing God’s grace will be as evi­dent to them in read­ing as it was to me in writ­ing. But when­ev­er my thoughts turn to audi­ence, my ego wants to come bar­rel­ing in. I do my best when I remem­ber the sim­plic­i­ty of my writ­ing project: HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY.
That being said, if you know any­one who might enjoy these dai­ly posts, feel free to rec­om­mend Dallin Malm­gren, Inter­net Writer to them, or have me add them to my email post list. Writ­ers love to be read.

Sat­ur­day, Decem­ber 31, 2022 New Year’s Eve: Karen and I cel­e­brat­ed togeth­er. The cham­pagne flowed and the res­o­lu­tions resound­ed. Oh, what a won­der­ful life it has been! Oh, what a won­der­ful life it will be! He is the God of faith and hope and love.
