Beware The Fear Merchants 2/9/2008

we'd have our power back on soon. After four days without
refrigeration, hair dryers, or TiVo, I had to admit I was
way too optimistic that time around.

ARE YOU DECEIVED Part 3 2/2/2008
My final thoughts on being deceived are around another
set of feelings. How often do we say, “I feel like God…” Not
many of us hear an audible voice when God “speaks” to us.
Mostly it is a sense that this is something we are to do or
not do. This is where it is critically important to know
your shepherd’s voice. It is also of vital importance to
know ...

Dancing With God 1/30/2008
When I meditated on the word Guidance, I kept seeing "dance" at the end of the word.
I remember reading that doing God's will is a lot like
dancing. When two people try to lead, nothing feels right.
The movement doesn't flow with the music, and everything
is quite uncomfortable and jerky. When one person realizes that, and lets the other lead,
both bodies begin to flow with the music. One ...
