How I'm Praying These Days

 Source

Prayer has been such an integral, vital part of my life for so many years. Jesus saved my soul when I was 10 years old in a revival meeting in Enid, OK, that I was attending with Mom, Dad, my Papaw, and the woman Papaw married a few years after my Mimmie died. I will never forget that night, how convicted I felt, how drawn I was to that altar of prayer, and how earnestly I poured out my little heart. From that moment until this, I have prayed countless prayers.

New Book Announcement, A Book Sale, A Tribute, & The Signs of the Times

 

New Book Announcement

Shortly after I published the book "Biblical Minimalism," the Lord began to lay it on my heart to write a correlating Bible Study Accompaniment Guide - a workbook with pointed questions to encourage readers to personalize the Scriptural truths in the book in a practical way, search their hearts and lives, identify problem areas, and find solutions in Scripture to correct, minimize, and eliminate all that is hindering them from living a holy life. 

"Just Throw it All on Me"

I may be simple-minded. Perhaps I am dense. But sometimes it takes me a long time to truly comprehend the most basic things God wants me to see and understand. Often, it seems to take a grand epiphany for Him to get a point across to me. Then, once I get it, it stays with me forever and becomes something that steadies me in my walk with Him from then on. 

Homespun Devotions: Volume Three is Now Published!

 "Praise ye the LORD. Praise God in His sanctuary: praise Him in the firmament of His power. Praise Him for His mighty acts: praise Him according to His excellent greatness. Praise Him with the sound of the trumpet: praise Him with the psaltery and harp. Praise Him with the timbrel and dance: praise Him with stringed instruments and organs. Praise Him upon the loud cymbals: praise Him upon the high sounding cymbals. Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD."
Psalm 150:1-6

This is the Psalm that resonates most with me tonight! A Psalm full of praises to our awesome God, in whom "we live, and move, and have our being." Acts 17:28

Homespun Devotions: Volume Three is now published,  and the Kindle version is available to purchase on Amazon! Lord willing, the paperback version will be available as soon as it has completed the review process—hopefully within the next day or so.

Order Here!

Remember when I asked you in this post to guess what was different about Volume Three, based on the book cover? Now that it is published, I can tell you the secret!

The Dangers of Dire Straits

I was astonished to see how long this thought has been brewing in my mind and heart! I started a new blog post just now called "The Dangers of Dire Straits," and after I typed the words in the "title" line, it hit me, wait! Didn't I already start a blog post by this name? I started skimming down through my published and draft posts, and sure enough! There it was! A draft showing I worked on a devotional with this very title on 3/5/2024 at 11:56 PM! That is how long God has been dealing with me about this!
