O God, when you led your people out from Egypt,
    when you marched through the dry wasteland, Interlude
the earth trembled, and the heavens poured down rain
    before you, the God of Sinai,
    before God, the God of Israel.
You sent abundant rain, O God,
    to refresh the weary land.
10 There your people finally settled,
    and with a bountiful harvest, O God,
    you provided for your needy people. Psalms 68:7-10

Do you feel settled? What makes you feel that way?

You sent abundant rain, O God,
    to refresh the weary land.

What refreshes a land?

Talk to me about things that make “a land” weary.

It struck me as I was meditating this morning through this Psalm about the God of Sinai and the God of Israel that I was forgetting the most basic meditation of all.

When I say the word “God” what does that mean to you?

Share Your World -Oct. 9,2017

I am getting an early jump this week on SHARING MY WORLD.

The underlined link above will take you to the Share Your World site. That is where Queen Cee of Share Your World reigns. Every week she releases her dispensation of four or five new questions and in answering them  we all share our worlds. Come join the kingdom!

Here are this week’s questions and my answers:

What do you consider is the most perfect food for you? (It can be your favorite food to something extremely healthy.)

The most perfect food for me changes almost daily according to my hankerin’. Today I want a nice juicy pot roast. I just happen to have one in the freezer.

Are you focused on today or tomorrow?

I don’t have the luxury of focusing on one or the other. I have to constantly plan for the future or it eats me alive but I have to live in the present or it passes me by and then the future eats me alive.

If you could interview one of your great-great-great grandparents, who would it be (if you know their name) and what would you ask?

I would talk to my great great great grandfather Tandy or my great great grandfather May both of whom were ministers in the same area I minister in. I would ask them what were the greatest and most effective tools they used in ministering to our people.

What inspired you or what did you appreciate this past week?  Feel free to use a quote, a photo, a story, or even a combination.

I was privileged to perform the ceremony for this young couple from our church on Sunday afternoon. I was so blessed for the love of this groom for his bride.
