#64 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Sunday, November 28, 2021 Karen and I prayed tonight–her words were exactly what was in my heart. Hmmm…the two becoming one, perhaps? Keep us moving, Lord.

Tuesday is a golf day…
#65 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Tuesday, December 13, 2021 I play golf with a senior men’s group. Senior men. Since I have been here (3 years) three men have died and four or five have quit playing for health reasons. Our oldest man is 92 and our youngest 58. What unites us most is that we all feel blessed to have the time and money and health to pursue a heartfelt passion. God has been impressing upon me that He cares more about these men than He does about how well I play. I am learning to re-shift my priorities.

Sunday, December 5, 2021 Sometimes I have doubts about the legitimacy of this writing project. After all, anyone can make up stuff and say God said it. So, of course, I pray. Here is the English translation of the nonverbal conversation that takes place in my heart:
Me: So why am I doing this?
God: That’s a good question. You tell Me. What is your goal?
Me: i want to do whatever I can for whoever reads this to encourage them to recognize Your love and to love You back.
God: That sounds good to Me.

#67 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Monday, November 29, 2021 I’ve thought about it, meditated on it, prayed for it…but I’m not sure what God wanted to say to me today. I did come up with a Dylan line:
“Now there’s a wall between us, something there’s been lost, I took too much for granted, I got my signals crossed…”

Thursday, December 2, 2021 Not sure if this qualifies as God speaking to me–you be the judge. I called today to schedule a colonoscopy and my gastroenterologist said I didn’t need one for another two years. I hate colonoscopies. (EVERYONE HATES COLONOSCOPIES!) Grace and mercy and peace from our Lord Jesus Christ.

#69 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Tuesday, December 7, 2021 I was wondering why God is more accessible to me on my back porch than in my study. Of course, that is ridiculous. God is always present. I lose touch with Him by wandering through the channels of my mind. God is always present. Here and now. The most direct approach we can make to God is to quiet our minds and breathe. And then pray.
