For quite some time and in many posts I have relied on the quotes and sayings of others to save time in preparing my posts. The problem with that is it is not truly personal. It gets the message across but falls flat when it comes to life in this day and age. Today's Brainy Quote says it all. Just because life speeds up does not mean our hearts and brains stop working in favor of non-communication of the heart. In recent years there has been a huge increase of views with few increases in comments. It is a blessing to be visited by so many readers. In no way am I complaining. The blessing is in reaching so many wonderful souls. It is beyond my understanding how that is possible. Our Lord works His wonders in many ways. When it is you whom he works through, we are often humbled and amazed at His work and the results. In so many ways it shows us what it must have been like for the disciples when He called them and they left everything to follow Jesus. How wonderful it must have been to see all of the works and miracles in their presence. Today the calling to follow is one of faith and belief in the grace of the Lord. The physical presence may not be there but in time you can feel His touch and hear His voice and you know He is really there with you, guiding you and teaching you the way you should go. I often find the words used are not my words but those chosen for me to say or write. On reading them myself it is a teaching experience for me as well as a humbling experience. All of the things mentioned in the quote above are of the Lord. The Lord is kind. The Lord is profound love experienced through His grace whenever we humble ourselves in His presence.
May the good Lord bless and keep you safe.
Remember to "Always Love The Details."
So true my friend. While the craft blogs and instructions for the projects I provide for my group are not what might be considered mindful or guided writing, He is guiding me in what I write and indeed, to continue doing so. And that truly does humble me.

This is so personal for me. It’s like, may the words of my mouth be pleasing to you. May my story mean something. May it glorify You. And honestly, I have so many doubts. Thank you.
