#476 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Friday, January 20, 2023 I stopped watching Yellowstone because it was morally corrupt, that is, there were no good people in it. Evil people were conflicted with other evil people, and we’re supposed to root for whom we deem less evil. My world is nothing like that. I see valiant, somewhat broken people who are mostly trying to do good. It troubles me that such shows might be encouraging us to think it’s okay to be sort of evil. Christ set the example for goodness–I want to follow His example.

#477 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Sunday, December 11, 2022 In the Old Testament, God resided in the Holy of Holies, and only a select few could approach Him (after much ritual). By the grace of our Lord Jesus, He has chosen to abide with us wherever we are. He is with me in my study, on my back porch, on the golf course, even when I go to bed. Isn’t it wonderful?

#478 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Wednesday, November 16, 2022 I cannot believe too much, I cannot trust too much, I cannot ask too much of God. I am in the river of God’s beneficence. Everything is intended for my well-being. I only have to learn to float.

Friday, January 6, 2023 In the realm of spiritual discussions: I have a much better chance of making a spiritual connection when I’m more interested in learning what they think than telling them what I think.

#480 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Friday, December 9, 2022 I am an optimistic person, so I tend to focus on the bright side. The cautionary flag that goes with that is…I can become insensitive to the effects of the dark side. Karen watches the news with heartfelt empathy–I have mostly stopped watching the news. I know there is a balance in this where one can remain positive and cheerful and concerned without becoming depressed. This is one of those areas where I’m glad the Holy Spirit is guiding me.

#481 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Saturday, January 21, 2023 This is a revelation: Any time I am more focused on how someone else needs to change than on how I need to be changed, I have already started down the wrong path. As the Beatles used to tell me: “Get back to where you once belonged…”

#482 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Wednesday, January 25, 2023 If I could give out a quality like a Christmas gift, I would give people faith. I know that love is the obvious answer, but there’s already a lot of love at Christmas. And faith is the link that enables us to love beyond our own reserves–and from an unlimited source. God wants so much for us to believe and trust Him. Draw me nearer, Lord, that I might trust You more.
