Resist The Shut-Down
Have been wrong about most things and most of the time. Few notable exceptions and faith-matters. Yet, even becoming 'awake' -- close to a decade ago -- continued to get a lot wrong and much misunderstood. Failure to live for tomorrow cost. Expecting mass upheaval, misjudged the solidity of the swamp. Watched the effort to . . .
Sin Sadness
Jonah ran away. Couldn't face offering those he deemed wholly unworthy a merciful reprieve. Then he died and rose again. A giant fish. Symbol or most remarkable occurrence, who knows, and how far should we care? God knows. And Jonah did/does.
We're here to run to wherever our Nineveh is. A place of compassion.
. . .More Breaks
More breaks in proceedings. My own fault, which impacts via unseen on to others and now facing kick-back. God is very real and determined that we who seek forth are holy ones through and through. Was not -- so, get the cost.
How it goes is this: Unless we are praying aright and needing to be specific times, the enemy tears . . .
Keeping Up
Exuberant and extravagant. Calling to and about God is the antithesis of almost everything going. What crazy madness must all the sing-to-Jesus seem.

Every individual and those yet to . . .
Settled
Instructions are 'keep on the day-in, and pray-on'. Ought to be all and enough to consume and captivate. What about wants or even needs? Something to happen, or a provision (or not) to come? Can bug and disturb, trouble and niggle away. Don't doubt God can do... yet, un-called for wobbles. Need to know the ask is right. . . .
Now Times
See Three levels and reading the Bible. Could say, two read, one reads us, which we can 'do great exploits' with. 1. Context/story/history/theology -- How God and people interact? 2. Lessons and principles -- How we should live? And; 3. How... prophetic. Accept the P. word overused. Gets whipped out here, and there, and . . .
