Photo by  CHUTTERSNAP  on  Unsplash Stuff Breaks. Surely, it does. No jokes about calling me, “Shirley.” That would be a: Faux pas literally meaning “false step.” What do you do when it happens and you do not really know why? If you knew it was you and what it was, you could, possibly, fix it. If you knew it was someone else and what it was, you could ask them to fix it. But some things are not fixable. So, you step back and learn from them. You also seek greater principles through them and apply them. You also write about them as you reflect upon them for the benefit of those who derive benefits from the things you write and they read. I am not sure what happened to “Music of the Heart. and some other pages I created. The whole batch disappeared.

We may hesitate to go our ways because it is less risky to continue as we have been, sitting at the feet of Jesus in the cloistered environs of our religious retreats. But we must go. It is His commission. “I send you,” He says this and that gives us courage to go forth, knowing that we have been authorized and mandated we bear his Name and represent...

The City We Seek We, like our spiritual forerunners, a foreigners and strangers in search of a city, a home, where God is present. It is there, where God is our God, no one is a stranger, it is eternal, the place we seek, a city where love is the rule. Deuteronomy 10:17-21 We, who were foreigners and strangers are no longer outcast. Psalm 145 It is a forever Kingdom Hebrews 11:8-16 It is the home we seek. Matthew 5:43-48 It is the city that is governed by the law of love. Deuteronomy 10:17-21 A City of God Where No One Is a Stranger For the Lord your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, mighty and awesome, who is not partial and takes no bribe, who executes justice for the orphan and the widow, and who loves the strangers, providing them food and clothing. You shall also love the stranger, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt. You shall fear the Lord your God; him alone you shall worship; to him you shall hold fast, and by his name you shall swear. He is your pra...
