This morning i sent this text to my two younger preacher brothers:
"Seems i heard the Lord tenderly speaking over our family this morning ‘Well done.’ His presence is our essence. His desire is our delight. One day our scattered family will be gathered around His Throne. Love you both."
Also, this song that especially touches me during this sacred season that leads us up to remembering our Lord’s Passion came clearly to my mind:
With gladness.

Lord Jesus, as i look at Your life and work on planet earth, it seems to me it was all prayer. Your ministry, Your agony, Your death -- all prayer. Your dependence on the Father, the way You trusted Him totally, the way You received, the way You surrendered all, it was all prayer.
Lord, i want my life to be like Yours, all prayer. Help me to delight in waiting on You, believing totally that i will receive all i need from You. Whatever i ask, i will ask it all in Your Name, Jesus. [John 14:13-14] Lord, i want to live as You lived -- praying always. Amen.
With gladness.

As promised earlier in 2022, i am launching now a new monthly podcast at the end of each month beginning with Episode 1 [Link Below] for the end of March 2022. Each episode should be at or about 1/2 hour in length.
As i prayerfully desire to stay in the Jesus-conversation as a district servant, i invite you to join me and to share the link with others as we journey onward together along the highway of holiness.

i love the sound of the cello. This link is heart-wrenching, yet "beautifully broken" may describe how it makes me feel as i look and listen to this Ukrainian cellist play in the war-torn streets of his homeland with Hope in his heart to rebuild.
With gladness.

i told my dear brother, Billy Joe, yesterday, “Sometimes the biggest the decision i make all day is getting up in the morning.” If you don’t understand talk like that, it’s okay. Some will.
This song below helped me this morning. Dearest my Lord Jesus, surely your Presence matters most!
* And thanks, Don Moen (Praise & Worship Leader.)
With gladness.
