It’s March­ing Order Mon­day! (expla­na­tion below…)
#393 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Mon­day, Octo­ber 10, 2022 God has been impress­ing cer­tain things upon my heart, things I believe he wants me to be aware of on a reg­u­lar basis, things that will help me nav­i­gate the road. I call them march­ing orders: *Be present. I’m no bib­li­cal schol­ar, but I read some­where that the most oft-repeat­ed phrase Jesus uses is “The king­dom of heav­en is at hand.” At hand means here and now. That is where the ener­gy is.

Golf Tuesday…
#394 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Wednes­day, August 24, 2022 As I reflect on my five day golf trip to Duran­go, I real­ize I was wit­ness to two mir­a­cles. These are not Red Sea miracles–you almost had to be me to notice them. I call them the wallet/cellphone mir­a­cle and the ear­ly depar­ture mir­a­cle, and a few of the guys I was with would rec­og­nize them. The point is that He wants such a per­son­al relationship–He is right here in the midst of my troubles.

Fri­day, Octo­ber 14, 2022 I am giv­ing my fam­i­ly to the Lord. I am con­se­crat­ing them (…to ded­i­cate to a divine pur­pose). No reli­gious rit­u­al here–just hope they will real­ize their lives are also spir­i­tu­al jour­neys. I don’t just mean my chil­dren and theirs. I’m con­se­crat­ing the whole fam­i­ly tree! We have been very blessed on the mate­r­i­al side of the two planes–may we car­ry that over to the spir­i­tu­al side, where the rich­es are even greater.

Mon­day, Sep­tem­ber 19, 2022 Gen­tle­ness is a fruit of the Spir­it. I’ve been reflect­ing on how gen­tly God han­dles me. I could have bad things hap­pen. I’m not smart or pure or care­ful enough to pro­tect myself. It’s like­ly I have some harsh events ahead of me. But I believe two things: …that He will be with me…and I will know it. So I am not wor­ried. Still, I sure do enjoy the gen­tle­ness. Teach me to be gen­tle, Lord.

#397 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Sun­day, Octo­ber 16, 2022 Hav­ing observed the will­ful­ness of a six year old child, I real­ize the human ego is so deeply implant­ed, the “self” as the cen­ter of the uni­verse so firm­ly ingrained…it is a mir­a­cle that the Holy Spir­it is ever able to get through to us.

#398 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Fri­day, Octo­ber 21, 2022 This one is con­vict­ing, but there is truth: “Do you ever won­der why West­ern athe­ism is on the rise? Why does the Chris­t­ian West, by far, pro­duce the high­est num­ber of athe­ists? What I believe, and have ded­i­cat­ed my life to revers­ing, is that we have not moved doc­trine and dog­ma to the lev­el of inner expe­ri­ence. As long as ‘received teach­ing’ does­n’t become expe­ri­en­tial knowl­edge, we’re going to con­tin­ue to cre­ate a high quan­ti­ty of dis­il­lu­sioned ex-believ­ers. Or on the flip side, we’ll man­u­fac­ture very rigid believ­ers who sim­ply hold on to doc­trines in very dry, dead ways with noth­ing going on inside.”

#399 HOW GOD SPOKE TO ME TODAY
Sat­ur­day, Octo­ber 29, 2022 I am home alone for eight days. Well, I have Spice. I love hav­ing extend­ed alone times, but it seems like my spir­i­tu­al state is giv­en to more extremes–from ado­ra­tion to lethar­gy. I think I become more self-absorbed when I am alone, like I’m car­ry­ing a mir­ror. There’s only one way to the high road: I AM not alone. Nev­er was, nev­er will be. I do not have to nav­i­gate those extremes on my own. He will guide me. The choice moves from one of will pow­er to one of faith, a far more com­fort­able rest­ing point.
