They followed the light. Everyone that saw the light that night followed it. The wisemen… the shepherds… Was it an angel that glowed? A star that shined? Regardless they followed the light. They came because they felt his holy spirit. They came bearing gifts and having a sense of awe and wonder. Should we not…
Every year I try to put myself in Mary’s sandals. I try to imagine what it was like to look upon his face for the first time. To touch his head, to feel his breath, and to know it is the breath of God. What went thru her mind as she realized she was delivering…
As I travel down a street in Fort Worth named Lancaster, I pass thru the mission area. I have had to go that way many times, as of late. With each trip my heart hurts, and my spirit instantly turns to prayer. The homeless souls are so numerous you would have difficulty counting them. So…
