Have you ever had an experience with hearing (or sensing) the Lord's voice and knowing it was Him? I had that experience with a box the other morning. (Balaam had a donkey, I had a box.)

I left for work at my usual time, while it was still dark outside. I noticed something on the road. At first, it appeared to be something . . .

Undecided

Five Minute Friday Challenge

Five Minute Friday Challenge

I keep thinking and some days, even praying, about finding a better rhythm to my writing. As in, writing more than just my once-a-month Share Four Somethings blog.
