and Purposeful Prose
Image by Ida from Pixabay Where to get started When you're feeling half hearted And you've felt this way for far too long You've become lost in the dust of the bustle and rush Carrying burdens and battles too heavy and hushed. There's no time to delay. It's time to unpack Unburden the load that weighs heavy on [...]
Inclined to sit awhile Inspired to stop and write Meditating on truths Seeking God’s pure light. Captured by the thought That Jesus walked on earth He sojourned here among us He broke bread And felt our hurts. God became a man Born of flesh and blood To reveal the face of God To show the [...]
Image by Mohamed Hassan from Pixabay Confidant(s) When I'm feeling low And I'm running out of steam When I don’t have the words And I need much more than sleep. When my spirit's drained And I can't absorb a thing I just want to pause it all And seek an ever giving spring. I need [...]

Resisting A world of distractions Rejoicing In all that is right Remembering The gift that was given Learning To persevere through the night. Surrender Is still the [...]
Clearly I'm not on the ball with blogging. Scheduling isn't working well and I'm struggling to read and comment on posts. Today's planned post will be delivered, apparently, at 7:30PM (Pacific Time) instead of 7:30AM. You'll be getting two posts today. That settles it. I need a full stop from blogging. I guess I'll get [...]
