even after 40 years, the wilderness was not their home, this barren thirsty valley of death and doubt, suffering and disobedience, is not where they would stay and it’s not where we will stay.
Anticipating Jesus’ Return
Less is More
I do not think the world needs more bibles, but men who are willing to read bibles. Not more books about Jesus, but individuals desiring to live like him. We don't need more churches but more authentic worship . Not more knowledge but real wisdom and understanding. Not more cleanliness, but more holiness. Not more … Continue reading Less is More
The Burning Bed
We are here. My sisters and I. Three separate lives, occasionally crossing paths; passing and embracing one another. Here is our story in bits and pieces of my imperfect memory from my faulty perspective. Forgive me, hate me, love me, but laugh and cry and feel and accept and enjoy the places we have been together here on earth and look forward to the place we will spend eternity together in heaven.

Sometimes I get discouraged because writing is incredibly time consuming and it demands to be done without compensation…at least at the point I’m at. I’m sure Stephen King receives plenty. “But compensation can come in other forms.” I told God, “I’ll take other payment … Continue reading An Advance and a Quarry
The Costly Pearl

Upon finding one pearl of great value, heaven gave up Jesus, its beloved, its most valuable, all it had, in order to purchase, a pearl of great value…the man, made in the image and likeness of God, bearing his spirit … Continue reading The Costly Pearl
