My Father

I am blessed and look forward to celebrating Father's Day and sharing those near and dear to my heart -my Dads.

I've been struggling lately and a little wimpy!

Praying the Lord's Prayer has been encouraging. We take it lightly and can become words without meaning.  

We forget the Power & Truth in the Words!  
It's THAT truth that changes our lives.  Not how I feel but who He is.

Our Father who is in Heaven.  Holy is your name.

To speak with the Maker and Creator of heaven and earth in such an intimate way is breathtaking.  

The God of all creation longs to connect with me in a candid and face-to-face talk.  

To open up the most secret and innermost places in my heart to the only one who can know me in that way.  Hmmm.  That is all I need.  

Without reserve.  Without second guessing. 

Father. Thank you for loving me, accepting me and drawing me to you.  

You are in Heaven and in my heart.  

Thank you for your unconditional and eternal love and wanting me.

Thank you that you are Holy, Unchanging, Eternal, All Knowing and All Powerful.

How can I not have value with God as MY Father.

Starting a Journey

September 3, 2010 Originally posted How to Begin a Journey 1. Pick a destination or simply start. 2. Plan a detailed itinerary or just take the first step. 3. Pack everything or travel lightly. I am choosing to just begin. To leave behind the baggage, pick up a day pack, and go. Several nights before we moved to Ogallala, I was praying about the transition when I heard that still, small voice of God. In that moment, I knew He heard my Heart's Cry. He hears every whispered plea, every unspoken longing. If I truly sit with that truth, it humbles me. What courage, boldness, passion, and decisiveness I have when I remember: He never leaves or forsakes me. He provides for my every need according to His riches in glory. My hope is to encourage you He hears your Heart's Cry too.

Picking up Rocks and Riding in Boats

I took a walk with a three year old young man today.   His mama was frazzled and he was bored.  "Grab your shoes," I told him.  He ran to his Mom to get his shoes on and ran to the door.  After fixing the shoestrings and the coat was on the way he wanted and I showed him the edge of the sidewalk and where we would walk...we were off. A dried piece of weed draped across an edge of the sidewalk, and I bent down to check it out.  He followed my lead and bent in half beside me.  I broke a piece off and gave him half and continued on our way.  Have you ever took a walk with a toddler?  And looked at things the way they do?  The broken sticks in the gutter, the ice and the small patch of snowing clinging to life are all gold to these little explorers.   A little encouragement is all they need to sift for treasure along the way. A smooth stone sat contentedly on the driveway of a house.  I stopped to admire...
