#1357 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
January 10, 2025 Sometimes I wonder if it is just me speaking and attributing it to God? Is this my writerly way of seeking attention and telling people how spiritual I am? Is my ego, like the devil, “…on the prowl like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour.” (I Peter 5:8)? The possibility exists, every day, every post. I have only one preventative: faith. Yes, Lord, I believe that You are the Christ, the Son of God, who has come into the world–and I will raise You up.

February 5, 2025 I have a proclivity for getting caught up in the flimsy details and losing sight of the big picture. I am working on it and praying. When I apply the big picture to the flimsy details, the correct response to any situation becomes fairly obvious. At the University of God, my coursework is done in my study and the lab is at the golf course.

February 8, 2025 “The glory of God is the human person fully alive.” St. Iraneus. So I have to ask myself: How fully alive am I? Not nearly as alive as I’m going to be, but way more than I used to be. “I have come that they may have life and have it abundantly.” (John 10:10)

February 12, 2025 One of my favorite book titles is Your God Is Too Small by J.B. Phillips (great book also). God has taught me over and over that I cannot believe too much, I cannot hope too much, I cannot expect too much. Dear Lord, keep me from shrinking You.

January 13, 2025 I think of myself as a piece of clay. I am being shaped, sculpted and transformed. I look at my photographs, my books, my music archive, my memorabilia–these are the tools the Master Artist is employing as He goes about reshaping me. There is only one catch–He can’t do it the way He wants to do it without me. I am convinced the way He wants to do it creates the very best me I can be. “Yet You, Lord, are our Father. We are the clay, You are the potter; we are all the work or Your hand.” (Isaiah 64:8). Have at it, Lord. Show me how to help.
(look who snuck into my photo!)

Family Sunday from the empty nest…
#1363 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
December 30, 2024 I am envious of those parents who have somehow persuaded their children (and grandchildren!) to settle near to them. We have Dallas, Port Townsend and Ann Arbor as the prime destinations on our map of the world. Karen’s and my resolution for 2025 is to devise a strategy to draw nearer to our family as much as we can. Doesn’t that sound like fun?
