Welcome to a bright and sunny Saturday. I slept in a little and sat down with my coffee in my hand. I read for a bit. I’m in Exodus right now and I get lost in the details of the specifics of the tabernacle and the ark and all that. That’s a whole lot ofContinue reading “Holiday Planning”

If you aren’t grateful…
I took a pass on blogging yesterday because I was feeling tapped out. I struggled to find joy in the mundane. The well was dry. I struggled to find a way to fill my spirit back up. I was still reading. I was still writing but all of a sudden I was disconnected. Here’s howContinue reading “If you aren’t grateful…”
Then there’s silence
Today I get the sense I’m supposed to just sit and listen. No agenda. No questions. No wrestling. No message. I settle in and take a few deep breaths. I sink into the comfort of His arms. There’s no sound except my heart beat and my breathing. Me: Good morning, Lord. God: Thank you forContinue reading “Then there’s silence”
Love the Unlovable
I almost didn’t take the time to be with God this morning. It’s Sunday and we’ll head to church in a bit. I was about to give myself a pass but then I realized how much I would miss it so I sat down and read, prayed and wrote. God: Welcome, child. I wasn’t sureContinue reading “Love the Unlovable”
You’re Too Comfortable
I’m still traveling and headed home this morning. I’m looking forward to being home. I feel like I’m centered and focused this morning but it quickly turned into another wrestling match as I settle in to spend time with God this morning. The conversation went something like this: Me: Good morning, Lord. Thank you forContinue reading “You’re Too Comfortable”
A Trip Down Memory Lane
I’m still traveling this week. This morning I chose to get up and make sure I was ready before I sat down for my reading and time with God this morning. I read a couple chapters in Matthew and I just right into my chat with God. Me: Good morning, Lord. Thank you for allContinue reading “A Trip Down Memory Lane”
It’s Not a Competition
I slept in a bit this morning and that felt really good. When it was time to wake up I hear a loud booming voice say “Welcome.” Now keep in mind, I’m traveling by myself so no one is in the room and the voice was not coming from outside or next door. I’m joltedContinue reading “It’s Not a Competition”
Teach Them
On today’s episode of “Mornings with God” I’m centered and peaceful. Great way to start, for sure. This is going to be a little different that some of the others because it’s a bit backwards from how the usual conversations go. Bear with me and I hope this helps. Me: Good morning, Lord God: GoodContinue reading “Teach Them”
Who Are You in Christ?
When I first started my prayer time with God I struggled to get a solid 10 minutes in. This morning I was 10 mins in and I felt like I just sat down. It’s a long conversation today. Much more of Him talking than me. Here’s how it went: Me: Thank you Lord for theContinue reading “Who Are You in Christ?”
