All Is Well With My Soul

Posted on January 17, 2018 by a moment with god — Leave a comment

Good Evening, God! I’m toward the end of my Second Instructional Illness — I hope. It was several months ago when I “heard” You say, “You can stay home on Tuesdays and Fridays or you can have a series of…

A Surprising Gift

Good Morning, God! I first remember learning that SIZE doesn’t matter in Madeleine L’Engle’s book, A Wind in the Door. This photo is of a rather small bloom on a dwarf poinciana tree. But, just look at its beauty! If…
