Dear Praying Friends, I decided to look back to the question I posed a year ago on this blog. In the journal section I asked: Will you begin to intentionally filter out and take captive every thought that does not reflect Him? Today, I need to reflect upon this in my own life. I feelContinue reading “Show Us Your Glory, Lord… August 14,2025…Keeping Close”

Dear Praying Friends, When we are planning for a big event such as a wedding, a family reunion, a vacation, I know that we all get excited. This week I am wondering if I am preparing for the biggest event of all? Revelation 19:7-10 speaks of the most spectacular wedding feast of all time…the marriageContinue reading “Show Us Your Glory, Lord… August 12,2025…Keeping Close”

Dear Praying Friends, Are you dreaming of a greater move of God? God is BIG and sometimes I think that I am content to just rest in what I already know about Him. I have been asking Him to help me to know Him more and to love Him more. As I continue to prayContinue reading “Show Us Your Glory, Lord… August 11,2025…Keeping Close”

Dear Praying Friends, Watching God move has been a very powerful experience for me. Many years ago, probably 40, He moved me to begin praying for my own town, state and then our nation. I think that sometimes we wonder if our prayers will ever be answered. As I look back, I’ve had high pointsContinue reading “Show Us Your Glory, Lord… August 8,2025…Keeping Close”

Dear Praying Friends, I think God is teaching me the “power of slow.” In a world that pushes us constantly to rush, rush, rush, the “power of slow” is a discipline to learn. I have become conscious of how much I feel rushed, even when I don’t have to be. The Holy Spirit has beenContinue reading “Show Us Your Glory, Lord… August 7,2025…Keeping Close”

Dear Praying Friends, There is something so powerful in a “divine appointment”, you know those meetings or conversations that happen and that you know God arranged. I had one of those this week. A few weeks back I heard of someone here in my town who has a great need. After hearing the story, IContinue reading “Show Us Your Glory, Lord… August 6,2025…Keeping Close”

Dear Praying Friends, There are days when I tell the Lord, “I don’t know if I can go on one more day.” He reminds me to not get ahead of Him and to not worry about tomorrow. I recently shared that with some inmates in our local detention center. Perhaps you are “battle weary” too.Continue reading “Show Us Your Glory, Lord… August 5,2025…Keeping Close”

Dear Praying Friends, Almost every day, I hear of a report of an earthquake somewhere. Perhaps this has always been the case in the earth, but with the rapid reporting of news we are hearing these things much more often. As I meditate on what it means to be unshakable, I believe I must doContinue reading “Show Us Your Glory, Lord… August 4,2025…Keeping Close”

Dear Praying Friends, As we leave the month of July behind and march forward into August, I encourage you to join me in my prayer “prompt” for this month. SHOW US YOUR GLORY, LORD! HELP US TO THRIVE IN 2025 AND HELP US TO BE UNSHAKABLE. (based on Psalm 62:6) The world continues to shakeContinue reading “Show Us Your Glory, Lord… August 1,2025…Keeping Close”

Dear Praying Friends, Some days I feel a bit “lost” in all the noise of this world. I am grateful that Jesus promises to come looking for His “lost” sheep. Now let me clarify…I haven’t left my faith in Him. In fact, these are the days when I feel like I need Him even more.Continue reading “Show Us Your Glory, Lord… July 31,2025…Keeping Close”
