Grieving

Bearing One Another’s Grief “Sitting shiva” refers to the act of sitting on low stools during times of mourning. As mentioned in the Book of Job, upon mourning, Job’s friends “sat down with him upon the ground seven days and seven nights”. (Wikipedia) I like the idea of this – I refer to it as… [Read More]

Photo Credit: Will Wilson I grew up in South Florida and water was an enormous presence in our world. We went to the beach. We went deep sea fishing. We sat on the inlet walls fishing for sheep-head. We had picnic suppers at the end of hot days. We walked the pier. We hunted shells…. [Read More]

Last night I dropped in on Kate Motaung and the Five Minute Friday Twitter party to say hello. I didn’t stay but a moment – by scanning the screen I could see that Kate was traveling as well as several others.

Kate said permission. Wow! What a word. I think I Kate said permission.

Wow! What a word. I think I will go “there.” That proverbial place one doesn’t like to venture. THERE.
But, I have permission!

God or man?

Then they called them in again and commanded them not to speak or teach at all in the Name of Jesus. 19 But Peter and John replied, “Which is right in God’s eyes: to listen to you, or to Him? You be the judges! 20 As for us, we cannot help speaking about what we have seen and heard.” Acts 4(NIV)

As a believer AND a follower of Christ – who grants me permission to do anything? With great discernment and faith, I trust my good, good Father to allow me or to withdraw me.

He Is My Guide

I will not listen to a government I do not trust. My peace comes from heavenly places and it gives me permission to say no to certain things. I follow man’s law regarding speed limits. I pay taxes. I don’t steal. But when it comes to my body?

The Temple of Holy Spirit?

I ask permission of Father. When He says yes or no I listen to His every word and reason.
Who gives you permission?
