I read some of Psalm 119 today.
I have been seeking the mind of Christ. What I am hearing is three fold.
- Read the Holy Scriptures
- Do the things they say to do, follow the instructions
- Give ALL control over to God
Last night I had a very scary dream. My wife or daughter was locked up in a hospital and no matter what I would try I did not have the power to help or even to get them out. The feeling of not being in control is the most terrifying of emotions for me, but I know in my head that control is what is standing between me and God’s will. I must release all control to the Holy Spirit.
Lord, thank you for this insight. Please give me the strength to be week. Let the battle be not mine, but yours. I desire to be your servant.

Today I read Psalms 75-77 and 100 aloud.
Last night I was blessed to be in the community of Christ and the Spirit was strong. All praise and glory be to God. It blows my mind the effect of a group of Christians gathering in Christ’s name, pouring their hearts our in prayer, and worshiping his Majesty. There are no words to describe this. Thank you Lord!
Today is a day to praise the Lord. I can do no more. I can do none other.
Jim – Congratulations!
Special prayers for Jay, Calvin, and Kevin as we have missed them for some time now. Lord, keep them close to you and may they be aware of your eternal and continual closeness to them.
Please pray for my family that we are fulled to overflowing with the Spirit and that his fire burns so bright in each of us that it is visible from the outside a witness to God’s glory. This is my prayer for each of you.
