Yesterday’s Daily: Day 10 of 21 Days of Fasting And Prayer

Posted on by under Pastor Wrinkles

Well yesterday was day 10 of Cornerstone’s 21 Days of fasting and prayer in 2021. This is a yearly spiritual journey the people of Cornerstone have taken together to seek out God’s plan and guidance for the year ahead as well as to pray in His provision for said plan.

Yesterday was a horrible fasting day for me. My sister Brenda was taken by ambulance to the hospital to treat symptoms of what turned out to be Covid. Fortunately she responded to the treatment and was not required to stay. That said, in the busyness of the day, I fell off the fasting wagon and I only got 25 minutes of praying in total for the day. For me that is almost like not praying at all.

But God’s mercies are new every morning and so today I pick up where I left off and continue on in the journey. I have had several words from God during this season which I do not feel free to share yet. So they are going in my little black book where they will remain until I feel like the time is right to share them.

Here is yesterday’s prayer video entitled….Daily

The Home Photo Challenge was fun for me last year. Since I do not think much is going to be changing for me in the way of travel this year, I am going to continue the challenge for myself into 2021. This year I am going to add a little twist. I will give a brief description of each photo I take and write a Haiku to go along with it.

Winter nightfall at The Vicarage

The gathering dark

Makes clear what light is still left

Beauty shines on.

Downed branches from a storm have made a little waterfall at the back of The Vicarage

Distant waters spill

Winter over downed branches

Washing it away.

This dog house has been in our backyard since long before I moved here in 2011. I don’t even remember who it belonged to.

A forgotten home

Is the playground of squirrels

Beneath the bower.

Operating In My Depth

Posted on by under Pastor Wrinkles, Uncategorized

One of the things the Lord has been speaking to me about, throughout the last several months, is about the need to walk in my God-given authority.

Operating in God-given authority is different for everyone. God gives each one of us a different measure of grace and we are called to operate according to what He gives us.

Some of us are tigers ready to fight spiritual battles in the heavenly realms with regal prayer and some of us are puppies in tea cups disarming heavenly beings with the power of innocence. Most of us are something in between the tiger and the puppy. Maybe more of a house cat?

What I have learned over the years is not to overestimate the tigers among us, not to underestimate the power of puppies and to esteem and value the power of every house cat in our midst.

Whatever you are like, whatever your level of authority is, you and it are fearfully and wonderfully made for this moment. You don’t need to be something more in order to God’s work with your life right now. You are simply called to operate in the depth of authority you have right now. It is enough for this present moment and when you need more, you will have it because God always equips those He calls.

So what are you? Tiger? Puppy? House cat? Or something else entirely?

I never noticed how these maple pods become translucent as the winter wears on.

Frosted glass gems hang

Like earrings from trees, beauty

Soon to bring new life.

All In….

Well The denizens of the Vicarage are all in, in more than one way. My sister Brenda has come down with some symptoms that resemble Covid-19 so on the advisement of the leadership above us she is getting tested and we are quarantining.

Today was a busy day getting all the bases covered at church since we will be viewing from home rather than leading from the stage. Fortunately Pastor Dan’s test came back so he is able to preach in the morning…. Here is today’s video and the other way that the denizens of The Vicarage are all in.

We awoke to the fall of heavy snish . That’s snow mixed with rain mixed with slush.

It is snishing out.

Rain, snow, slush from the night sky

Falling into life.
