#400 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Sunday, October 9, 2022 This one came to me in the middle of the night: *Learn to differentiate between your ego and your soul. The ego prioritizes I; the soul prioritizes we.

Tuesday is Monday’s ugly sister–unless you play golf…
#401 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Thursday, October 6, 2022 My brother-in-law made a hole in one today. It was an occasion of great joy. I have now witnessed seven holes in one, none of my own. I’m waiting, Lord, I’m waiting…

#402 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Tuesday, October 25, 2022 Karen and I have had a differing view on Jesus’s declaration “The kingdom of heaven is at hand.” I see it more as ‘right here, right now,’ while she takes it as an announcement of His ministry/mission. Now I see we both got it. Jesus was announcing the Messiah: “I am here.” The most important thing that Jesus has to say to me in the morning when I wake up is: “I am here.”

#403 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Friday, October 14, 2022 God’s number one way of unclouding my vision is pulling me back to a wider perspective. Zoom out. It’s amazing how I can see something as intensely important, and zoom, it almost seems trivial. I’ve noticed that when these happenings (cloudy vision) occur, I always have my ego somehow invested. He must increase and I must decrease. Uncloud my vision, Lord.

#404 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Wednesday, September 14, 2022 I am living in two different worlds–the material and the spiritual. But it is never either/or–it is always both/and. Unfortunately, the public consciousness seems so focused on the material that it takes a disciplined effort to bring the spiritual to bear. That is what my journey is about: learning to incorporate the two planes. I could never do it on my own. (Cartoon below illustrates the hazard of single-plane living.)

On a cold and rainy day, get back to where you once belonged…
#405 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Thursday, October 13, 2022 Sitting on my back porch while Karen gardens…she wants to know what is going on with the golf guys (there is always something going on). She tells me what is going on with her sisters (there is always something going on). The weather is perfect and her flowers are screaming glory. A breeze whispers “..the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”

#406 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Saturday, October 29, 2022 Is it arrogant to proclaim (yes, I’m proclaiming) how God speaks to me each day? What makes me so special? Nothing. I know that I am not a prophet. But I know that I am in a relationship. I am here and He is here. It wasn’t until I retired that I made exploring this relationship a priority. God is speaking to me. God is speaking to every one of us all of the time. Jesus said “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.” (Matthew 13:9) It is all about listening. Dear Lord, open my ears and teach me to listen.
