i wonder who created gummy

bears? the most dangerously

alluring candy. haribo brand or

nothing. i see a bag on the

shelf in the grocery store, and

i tell you the truth, it teases my

appetite until i HAVE to buy

some. like 6 or 7 bags. an anxiety.

an urging.

"Jesus, I want to be that passionate

about you. oh, that i might  hunger

and thirst for you. that i might

search the aisles...the highways

and paths for what i love....more

of your presence."

hope lives.

my insurance covers

rehab. a miracle....but one

foot needs correction. please

pray.   

you know the story in the Bible?

the harlot who comes to where

Jesus is having. dinner....with the

rich and the haughty. sinners.

the door opens. in walks the un-intimidated harlot.

she goes straight to Jesus.

her tears washing His feet. her

long hair drying them. she poured

very expensive perfume on them.

a far more extravagant gesture

of love than the robes and food and  

cajoling. her gifts, all she had,

far more magnificent than all else.

Jesus counted her sins for

righteousness.

let's come to Jesus.

give Him our sins.

wash our tears at His feet.

let's yearn for more of Him.

may we long for Him as we

never have before. everything else

will fall into place.

i treasure each of your posts

so, so grateful for those who

contribute financially. it means

everything! i love you!
