Path of Life When Morgan was a junior in high school we talked about paths in life. Talk was more like Sesame Street though, thinking about choices and what comes with those choices.   We always have a choice of direction in what we do. God allows that.

If you have friends or neighbors or see someone struggling, this is the day to take hold and pull them

This past Sunday's sermon will not be up until midweek, but it is good.  Click here for the link.

Personal and precious are our gifts from the Father.  The Father is with us always through the times of darkness in life as well as at the moment you reach the summit's top.  Jesus promises us life  and the gift of having it filled with abundance.  Through His physical healing of the body came forgiveness and grace to the soul.  Perhaps today it is better to seek His Grace before we pray for divine healing.  Words of my heart, Laurie A Texas

Beth is here from Tulsa to paint with me and it has been a delightful blessing.  God is marvelous the way He knits our lives together with so many strands of colorful thread.

I spent most of the walk meditating with the Father and thanking Him for the beauty and glory surrounding us. My heart is prepared for

I was reading in the 18th chapter of Psalms when the verses I included at the bottom struck a chord of familiarity as well as comfort.  I think perhaps this was something from a past message I heard that took root in my heart. Googling it I came across this poem from  another blog . The writer did not know where it came from.  Further investigation found a young man that put it to music.
