He is drawing us

The Circle Maker small group began last night.  Our leaders shared a profound spiritual beginning:  God is drawing you to Himself not challenging you.  As a back drop to the study they emphasized a drawing of God’s love and not a battle with Him in which we feel inadequate and exhausted. “I have loved you with an everlasting love;…

A Beautiful Life

An ordinary afternoon at Starbucks is a moving experience and they never knew.  Maybe I should have told them but how could you share something so deep with a stranger and expect them to stick around in such a public place to listen.  Sitting down in the brown chair and hooking up the laptop, ready…

A Marriage Made In The Garden

I’ve been married for 23 years, and dated Parish for 2 years.  We’ve been getting to know each other for a long time.  I’ve been to marriage retreats, read marriage books, watched the movie Fireproof, and attended marriage small groups.  I can quote you most verses on how the man is supposed to love you…

Stomach Issues

I’ve read a lot of Bible Studies on the Israelites wandering in the wilderness, and their number one issue was complaining.  They were never satisfied, and always grumbling.  Some studies I find are very “judging” in nature – like as if to say, “How could they complain?!” I’m in the Circle Maker book and the miracle…

My Daddy’s Songs

Disappointed? You are in a GREAT place!

Ouch! So yesterday I honestly shared I stopped praying circles around my Jericho.  Tonight I read further in my Circle Maker book and realized that giving up before the miracle is, well, like giving up on the Glory of God!  I even was a little cynical about the book using the Jericho example because of…

Can a perfect day be a bad day?

My family has started reading The Circle Maker. ( I hope you have been able to order this book!) Last Sunday a pastor at Clover Hill Assembly of God confessed his “in the middle” battle and asked for prayer from the church.  He noted that usually he waits until the victory is won and then explains…

Reader’s Comments!

We’ve had several folks make comments from Pray for Philippine friend, The Circle Maker, and Jesus is not a tack on!  Just a reminder that comments can be read as you scroll down to the end of that post and click on comments.  I have answered readers and prayed this morning for you, giggled about…

Very quick note…promise….

Please pray for someone in South Africa and Trinidad…..two other countries that have been added to this blog.  I’ve been praying for a way to expand my love for Jesus beyond Chester – my heart is “international” my transportation is local (LOL)….. Let’s all begin to realize how we can connect to others in the love…
