Sometimes I think if the dry seasons are the norm, and times where we do hear The Voice are what's unusual. Which makes them all the more precious.
How was your day?

The prayer walk at the local abortion clinic was awesome. Love Life ministries is great.
I think that's normal. God remains silent in my life for some time but then he eventually talks to me again. It's something to be expected since we are in probation here on earth.
Ya, but the people at the abortion clinic where at the wrong end of the process line. It is so much better to deal with the beginning with the processes that cause the problem, than at the other end of the line where the protesters are.
They made it clear that it wasn't a protest. We were there to pray for a change.
But Im always open to ways we can shift the culture that got us these clinics in the first place, if you have ideas.
Well the social distancing requirements of the pandemic did not provide a sensible control measure over the past couple of years, or reduce the need for abortions.
Churches often run social missional projects in third world countries to help women out of prostitution after being sold by their parents into prostitution because of their poverty. A better solution is to help the poverty stricken parents out of poverty so that they do not need to sell their daughters into prostitution in the first place.
You made the statement: -
What were the prayers offered up for change?
Were they on the mark, so to speak, so that change would occur and the need for abortions would subsequently be reduced?
We prayed that the church would rise up to become a refuge for parents facing unplanned pregnancy.
I am proud to volunteer at a crisis pregnancy ministry that gives baby resources and mentoring to women in the area. Thats how I heard about the prayer walk.
I am so happy. Easter service at my church was so moving. Its hard to put it into words but I needed what was offered.

I want to just let myself know that I've made some really great strides in eating healthier and losing weight. I have no idea what my weight actually is since my scale is broken but what I do know is that if I don't give up and stay in the moment, I can succeed.
God is with me. I dont have to eat perfectly at every meal to lose weight over time. Persistence, no matter how long it takes, is what I need.
Persistently drinking the water, adding fruits and vegetables, exercising, eating recommended portions, praying, and journaling.
If I don't believe I can, than I simply wont.
I may not ever eat perfectly but Ive come so far. Ive made so many changes. It would be a shame if I gave up now.
And Im not going to allow those negative thoughts to come to shame me about my appearance either. I think so many women look gorgeous no matter what size they are. I can include myself in that too.

Sounds like you’re making progress. Keep going!
I have ended up listening to my RnB playlist and journaling in this free time.
If I could make a documentary about my life, I'd want to capture the moments I just feel happy.
There are so many bad things in the world that I mostly tune out. I would want to show that with God and living a Godly life, there is still beauty and hope and purpose in the world.
There have been some rather crazy and even shocking elements to my life in the past I wouldn't necesarily want to share. But Id want to capture just how good living can be even in the times were living in.
There have been many precious moments and its all going by like a blink.

I have felt like I am in a dry or winter season for a while but I know the sun will come out again spiritually as it does naturally.
Had an awesome day. Went to Aglow, which is a ministry where members from a variety of churches and non christians gather together for worship and there is usually a guest speaker, ie an evangelist, prophet and/or healer who is invited to speak. We had a wonderful evangelist, healer speak. He reminded me of an old time fiery preacher from back in the day. Got me all fired up. After that, I went for lunch and got an opportunity to lay hands an pray for people who needed healing. Very blessed day! Filled with the Holy Spirit and fire....
Sounds good. I used to go to Women Aglow meetings many years ago.
I'm going to have to break out a happy playlist cause Im happy and no one and nothing wants to match that energy.
Hubby got dealt a hard work-related blow. Times may get tough. Im thinking now is my chance to be a great support!
Its a little about me---I do want him to think well of me as a wife. But it's also because he's been there for me in such huge ways in the past and I'm looking to return the favor.

Our offices are open now, so I dismantled my home laboratory and brought all the stuff back. My wife has her dining room back. Looks weird after 2 years not having a bunch of computers on the dining room table.
