#844 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
February 1, 2023 This is our fifth day essentially indoors (so cold and icy we don’t dare step outside). The river of life is sluggish today. While I battle with cabin fever, I know we are blessed just to be warm, well-fed and comfortable. I suspect that a thankful heart opens more easily to His presence. It has been peaceful here, making me more appreciative of small pleasures like hot chili and reading and breathing. Thank You, Lord.

#846 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
August, 2023 Sometimes I am dumbfounded by how little I understand how God is working in my life while being absolutely certain that He is at work. It’s like the antithesis of that Wack-a-Mole game. He pulls me up with a holy kiss, then I am dropped back down into my normal existence, and then I am pulled back up again. Keep pulling, Lord Jesus.

August, 2023 “Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons…” (Acts 10:34). That is one of the most difficult tests in human relations. No matter who is in front of me, I should be the same Dallin with the same attitude. Jesus was the same Jesus. Impossible to do on my own… (comic by David Wilkie)

#850 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
December, 2023 This aging thing is a mysterious stretch in the journey (what part isn’t?). Last night my son got the balky pilot light on our gas fireplace to light and then fixed a minor problem we were having with our car. It hit me like a flash–he is taking care of us! And, much as I want us to remain independent and self-sufficient for as long as we can, I realize this is a life cycle: dependence to selfhood to nurturing and back to dependence–and the thing that holds it all together is love.
