Everywhere I go lately, I am drawn to the intricate, gentle beauty of water droplets. On leaves, on spider webs, on the windshield of my car after the rain; everywhere I look my attention is captured if even for a second. When this happens, I eventually realize that there’s a reason why, and usually it’s because I’ve got a lesson to learn. So, what is it about water droplets?

While taking some time to transfer some of my old blog posts to this new site, I ran across one in 2010 that is a very detailed script of an intensive Immanuel Process I had.

When I say things like that to people, sometimes I get a polite nod and an “isn’t that nice” type of response. Other times I am met with a totally blank stare. I realize that this concept of “allowing the Lord to heal me” is very vague and mysterious for someone who hasn’t ex

Reading in Nehemiah I couldn’t help but notice that the word “repaired” was repeated over and over again in Chapter 3. This passage is all about how Nehemiah found the walls of Jerusalem in ruin and was inspired by God to have them rebuilt. Often when I think of “walls” I think of the walls that I’ve put up around my own heart to protect me.

"We are to let God's shalom be the referee and every time shalom is gone, we must stop the game and get it back before we can do anything else!" ~Joy Starts Here pg 152 I am currently reading a book that my Dad and a few of his friends have written called Joy Starts Here. One of the many things that is jumping out to me as an "aha" moment is based upon a deeper understanding of this verse: "And let the peace {shalom} of God rule {"brabeuo" to be a referee} in your hearts.....
