Under the weather
I’m under the weather…bad cold. Hoping to be well enough soon to express something that’s been percolating in my head this week. Blessings on everyone!
How could I forget?
It shouldn’t be a hard thing to remember. It’s a simple but powerful spiritual tool. But with the time constraints with working, I seem to have let go of the concept of fasting. I learned it as a young believer Continue reading How could I forget?

I’m cold and I don’t like it. I’m asking God tonight to keep the clouds over Southeast Texas so the temperature doesn’t drop a low as is predicted, somewhere around 20 degrees. I know that my friends up north are Continue reading It’s too cold for me
