Yesterday (Friday) morning I was diagnosed with a detached vitreous in my left eye and with bleeding of the retina where the detachment occurred. The vitreous is the "gel" that covers the retina, and a section of it tore loose, did NOT take the retina with it (thank You, Jesus) and is sitting in the … Continue reading I Choose Life

God Talks to Spiders
I had this God encounter with a spider a few weeks ago and meant to share it. I told some folks about it but never got around to writing it here. Between moving (twice in two weeks) and an emotional meltdown that preceded a prayer ministry session that involved a lot of repentance against unloving … Continue reading God Talks to Spiders
His Strength in Me
I think one reason it's so easy for me to write novels is that my life reads like one. When I think of all the different kinds of trauma and crisis I've been through; my life reads like a work of fiction. How could any one person deal with so much! All the "big things" that psychologists … Continue reading His Strength in Me

The Prayer Garage
I guess it was about 9 months ago, I saw this crazy vision of having a "prayer garage" at our church. What is a prayer garage? Well, when we moved into our new church building (actually a very old building), it has a little brick "house" with a garage. I got this vision of the … Continue reading The Prayer Garage
Abba, Hear Us!
During our Harp and Bowl worship service tonight, the Lord helped me to feel with the shattered heart of those who are crying out for help and can't find their way to Him. The darkness, the cold, the loneliness, the desperation, the panic, the fear that all is lost forever. It was devastating ... until … Continue reading Abba, Hear Us!
