I love the bible. I love scripture and mostly the letters in red. One of the factors in loving something is being critical of it or critical of a belief in it. That shows how much you love it. If you didn’t love it you wouldn’t want it to improve and be loved and understood…
I wake up each morning at six. As I rise from the covers I have a prayer in my thoughts. My goal in waking up is not personal perfection, but surrender, and union with God. Any preoccupation with my own moral goodness keeps my eyes on myself and not on God… or grace… or love. …
Open your heart… Open your mind… Look beyond your understanding… Listen to those around you… Watch in silence… Remove your ego and look upon others with an open heart… Listen to the earth… The animals… Its all the word of God. God speaks daily in our lives and not just through the written word. He…
As we hug I can feel the depth of her love. After forty one years I know in my heart that her love is unconditional. I am asked so many times by others how to have a successful marriage? How to be soulmates in a world that teaches everything but that? Love is an exercise…

Do you ever feel lost in the desert? Deserted, desolate and lonely. As I have moved from understanding God as a rule maker with a iron fist, to knowing him as a loving God who accepts everyone right where they are at… I feel alone. Our society and our country are so fixated on a…
Sometimes I feel like life would be easier if I went along with the status quo. However, God put in me a deep desire to question everything, and to search tirelessly for answers. Whether it be medical, political, religious, or science I long to learn more… understand more. I research always and look for different…
