God is always speaking.
Do you hear Him?
Our Heavenly Father faithfully speaks to me so tenderly through inward conversations that are journaled as letters. Read how it all started.
These letters are not intended for me alone but are to be shared with the body of Christ.
As you read them, I pray you will learn to recognize how God is speaking to you about your life throughout your day.

Let’s talk about this morning.
I would love to because I see Your hand written all over it!
- LONG PAUSE -
How about you start? Tell Me everything from your perspective this morning.

You’re concerned about the timelines of getting these books out to pastors and principals. Here’s your timeline: You are to finish distributing the books by the last day of the school year.
What about the spring break walk around your city challenge?
What if I told you the promo videos and any efforts towards preparing that challenge was for one person who would walk around one city affecting one city for the Kingdom? Is that worth the effort?
What Did I Say?
Yes, LORD.
You’re mentally complicating this project. This is EASY. I said Beavercreek pastors first. What next?
Xenia pastors. Then the Christian school principals.
Then why were you planning a different route?
I knew I had to get all the books out and I thought if…
Willing to be Dumb
Who fought the battle of Jericho?
Daddy… thank you for waking me up! I so wanted to hear from You tonight!

What was his weapon of choice?

Breadcrumbs
Let’s talk about yesterday.
I don’t really want to.
Why not?
Because standing on this side of yesterday, my internal reaction to what happened seems ridiculous.
