The Day of My Birth

August third was the anniversary of the marvelous day I was born. lol. When I say this, most people (who are outside of true understanding, lol) will roll their eyes. But, I always want my words to actually “mean” what they mean! I tell people I plan to “stand under a shower of water and shampoo my hair and wash my body.” It would be erroneous to say, “I will shower.” I don’t actually shower, do I? No, the water does. I am not a “Diabetic,” despite diabetes attacking my body. I am NOT my disease!

Really? The Plan Is Perfect?

I was reading some things Paul wrote and they lead me to ponder how it is that our Father has a perfect plan for our lives. Let me explain that . . . read what stimulated my thinking:

Just Ask

Here is something for us to consider, from the day we are born, we begin a journey. During this journey, we will run into many twists and turns. Sometimes we will face turnarounds and sometimes just plain boring landscapes. But it is a journey that no one else can take for you. But there IS someone who can help.

An Amazing Psalm (Psalm 119)

Your hands created me and made me what I am.
    Help me understand so that I may learn your commandments.
Those who fear you will see me and rejoice,

Seeking Him?

My recent experiences have made realize that I am getting older, sure, but I also don’t recover from illnesses as quickly as I used to. This last bout has dampened the winds in my sais, some. But it has also confirmed how much I need my Father’s presence.

Who Is Praying?

I have heard it said that, in our churches, women do most (if not all) the praying and that men are left to run the churches. First, I don’t necessarily agree with that sentiment. However, if it is true, I argue that if Men don’t pray, they shouldn’t be involved in guiding anything within the church! Oh, not just men, this goes for women, as well!

We Are Too Anxious and Need To Wait (redux)

I ended an earlier message with a passage from Habbakuk:

Yahweh is in his holy temple.
    Let all the earth hush and be silent in his presence (Habakkuk 2:20)
