Simple Comes Through

Fresh in from the beach, a week of salty air and perfect sun will restore your vision and refresh you for fall at least. And I am, refreshed. I've realized (after 30 years) that I need to have a peaceful, alone time, every morning in order to start the day off right. And by right, I mean, sane.

There is something about how I'm wired that requires a daily seclusion in order to function. To hear. To sort. To stir up the zeal that was written on my DNA. I've been asking and petitioning for this simple request for a while. It's been years actually. And when I first started asking it was merely, me, testing to see if He would come through, but I just got whiplash when I realized that it was actually Him, offering, if I was really interested to take.

I know that sounds confusing. I would probably need to meet with you and have coffee or tea in order to fill in all the details, but who has time to listen to me ramble anyway?! The truth is, I've been asking to be used. Not inside that building on Sundays. Not in front of those with sound doctrine. I've been asking for a simple ministry where I could pray for them and He would show up. He would do the work. He would be there in the midst. And there, He would be glorified.

It's been happening.

That ask and you shall receive thing...it's been happening.

A seeking girl on the beach in VA.

A woman determined to fight for her husband even though he's chosen another.

Two people at the scene of a car accident, one unconscious and the other bound by the airbag.

It is starting to happen everywhere and you know, I love every opportunity.

Because when it's not about me, I fade away. And He's perfect. All the time ready. Waiting. For them.

I really would love to elaborate but I think I should pause here.


I don't even have pictures because sometimes when you're in the middle of what He told you to do, there isn't time to stop. Pause. Click. But there is always time in the after to praise and reflect on His goodness and what He's just done. Wow. It is so good.

I would love to pray for you. And He will show up. So if you need anything, anything, I am willing to take time with you. All you have to do is let me know...
