Being All In!

47 years.  47 years and I am still a mediocre guitar player.  I watch John Meyer, Stevie Ray Vaughn, and I wonder why I’m not that good.  Then one day it hit me.  I have never been all in.  I have never dedicated all my time… my life… to being an amazing player.  As I take this time away from HJD, to spend time in contemplation and prayer, God is speaking to me more than ever.  I know from my time with him, I need to be all in when it comes to God… to Christ.  I need to spend each waking hour looking, talking, and listening to the message he wants all of us to hear.  By being all in, HJD can grow from 5,000 readers to 50,000. More people need to be exposed to his love, his grace, his heart.  I feel so strongly about this journey that I decided, at the age of sixty, to have the HJD logo tattooed on my leg.  Each day as I look at my tattoo it reminds me this is a life long journey.  It is a chance of a lifetime to share Christ love with people that need it.  The messages are headed in a new direction, with a love for other people that is overflowing, to the point of drowning.  As I start sharing this new direction on September 4th I ask that you help, by leading people to this journey. It will touch their life and bring a since of joy and compassion for everyone.  I can’t wait to move forward with you in September. 

I Love You!

Day to day I see people, who call themselves Christ followers, doing everything but reflecting the heart of Jesus.  As my day progresses I think:  Everything I do… everything I say… the way I conduct business… the way I treat others… is a direct reflection on the one I follow.  When I wear the name…

So Many and Yet One!

So many! As I stand on 16th street in Denver, so many people. Sitting. Standing. Walking. I try to see each one. I don’t want to see a forest… I want to see a tree! So many, that it would be easy to look at them as a crowd, but I desire to see a…

I Know Him!

I had my blinker on.  I was moving forward and trying not to crowd… no luck.  No one was letting me in the slow moving traffic.  People looked… people noticed… but they wanted to be first and besides what would they gain by letting me in. If only I could see someone I knew, they…

Just Ask!

Thirty seven times.  Thirty Seven!!   H2O became wine.  Evil spirits ran in fear.  Fish jumped into nets at his calling.  Leprosy vanished with a touch.  Small fish and simple bread fed thousands with a thought.  Walking on water – no problem.  Blindness vanished with a little spit and mud.  Even a simple touch of…

Watch Him Work!

How often do we limit God?  When you pray do you allow your wildest dreams to be of request or do you think you shouldn’t bother him with it?  Do you allow him to help with your goals… do you picture him answering the request of your imagination… he only wants to do more than…
