Check out this friendly visitor to my porch on Saturday morning. In my trial-and-error focus, I look outside before I open the door and check around under all the porch furniture before I sit down.

I have to choose not to revise or reread anything yet. I’m in week two of teaching an online class this week. Most of all, I look forward to preparing my heart for Thanksgiving and Christmas with gratitude and the glory of Jesus.

Where are you this week? Are you feeling like a bubblegum ball in a dispenser pinging all over the place, hoping for a chance to be dropped in the slot? When you realize you have finally dropped in the slot, you are consumed with not an ounce of flavor left. Awe… what joy! Take 5 minutes and ponder with me how to handle being an appreciator and a performer. I am on scene 20 (of 40) for book 2. This is a journey with the bare essentials and no frills—a time to get the words down and keep...
Setting up and taking down. Starting again and starting over. Losing focus and regaining wisdom. All the words matter. When we share a kind word with someone else on a regular basis, we are bound to connect with someone who needed to hear what we said. Keep sharing the kind words even if you have no idea where they will land or who will hear them. If you need a course to help you learn how to lead worship, check out this link for details. I am leading the course in January. It is all online...
