“They don’t know how to cry,” I heard the Spirit whisper. Some of God’s people don’t know how to cry. Maybe that was one of the problems with the Laodicean church. (Revelation 3:14-22) Maybe a preoccupation with material wealth had quenched the Spirit which would have moved them to tears had they recognized their spiritually [...]

(based on Daniel 7)   I watched as thrones were all put in their place The Ancient of Days sat to hear the case His garment of white glistened as the snow His hair was as pure as the wool a lamb grows Around His throne a fiery flame did burn With wheels of fire that ever did turn A thousand thousands ministered [...]

With the exception of some old hymn lines, I’ve never posted here prose by anyone other than myself.   But Miss Archer read this at a luncheon recently and it impressed and blessed me with its tenderness.  So with her permission, here it is to bless you as well.

We live in auspicious times.  The darkness may be getting darker BUT – halleluYAH! – the LIGHT is getting LIGHTER!  (Isaiah 60:2) As the Lord sent a servant of His to tell me some years back, at my weakest physical point, near death, “The best is yet to come!”  And it’s been getting better ever since!  (Had [...]

“I come to the garden alone….” This hallowed hymn always strums an emotional chord deep within me. It beckons me to that place of sweet delight with the Lover of my soul. “And the joy we share, as we tarry there, none other can ever know.” It is there that we enter the Holy of [...]
