Imag­ine God. (That should be enough)

Imag­ine Him as a New York City cab dri­ver, a garbage man, a kite maker, or a home­less insur­ance sales­man.  Also, an architech, CEO or artist.  These sto­ries are des­gined to make you think twice about your job, both sec­u­lar and spir­i­tual and help you see where you’re at […]

Learning Patience

On April 29, 2009 By

Here is a story about learn­ing patience.  I hope it helps you as much as it helped me …

I don’t mind God teach­ing me things at all. Patience is good. But it sure would be nice if the lessons were a lit­tle eas­ier. I guess with some things, there’s only one way to teach […]

finding your passion …

On April 27, 2009 By

Find a need and fill it.  Find a hurt and heal it.”

 

I needed some guid­ance today.  Nat­u­rally, I found some­one able to pro­vide it.  You say, “What?  Did you ask God first?”  Well, yes, of course I did.  Some­times, how­ever, you need to hear the answer audi­bly.  Some­times, the answer God would give can […]

surprise #next

On April 26, 2009 By

Yeah, you read it cor­rectly.  I didn’t put in a num­ber because I’m start­ing to lose count.  Sev­eral sur­prises ahve come around in the last few days, some of which were small and oth­ers that com­pletely blind sided me into joyful bliss.

First, in almost the same instant as my deci­sion to slow my busi­ness down […]

A Love Supreme

On April 25, 2009 By

OK music lovers!  For those who have been read­ing, there was a rec­om­men­da­tion in the book I’ve been read­ing to check out John Coltrane’s “A Love Supreme”.  Whoa.  Very nice.  I have the deluxe edi­tion 2 disc set from Ama­zon.  If I ever write a book, I’ll be rec­om­mend­ing this to my read­ers as well.

Hmmm.  […]

Revive Me

On April 22, 2009 By

Con­sider my afflic­tion and please deliver me
Plead my cause and redeem me
Sal­va­tion is not for the wicked
For they don’t seek your word
Great are your ten­der mercies Lord

Revive me, accord­ing to your lov­ing kind­ness
Revive me, that I may seek your word
Revive me, […]

new lesson: sacrifice

On April 20, 2009 By

What?  You expect me to just have a nugget of knowl­edge already con­jured up to go with the title?  No, this one will wait.  I would rather give some­thing more com­plete to chew on for a day than to spoil it early and have to fix it later…you go on to bed now…
