The Almighty, The Prodigal Son and Two Cats: Part Two
With the passing of our Sphynx in 2020, my heart was wrecked. This deep devastation and sorrowful state would pave the way for my ego to surrender itself to God.

I like dogs and I have many friends who love their dogs. But it was a feline, not a canine, that God would use to soften my hardened heart. A life wandering in darkness; a life without Love.
Read MoreSpin: The World’s Oldest Profession
Before sin, began spin. Born from a serpent twisting words, professing half-truths, profaning God’s character and propagating doubt. Bringing deadly lies into God’s good world that would lead humanity down a path that’s never about love only about death.

I heart the mountains and I hear the mountains. Visually profound understandings about the nature of Love and what is required to love my neighbor. Divine whispers that sing to my soul the hymn of humility.

O America, America, the nation that kills millions and steals from the struggling! How often would I have gathered your children together as a parent gathers their child under a canopy of life and love, and you were not willing! This is a heavy-hearted story. A critique of the Establishment; political and religious. Leaders who…
Read MoreWhy Can’t God Just Tell Us What To Do? Well, At Least Me
Like millions of other faith filled people, I just want God to tell me what I need to do; now. I’d also be good with knowing my future. Equating divine Love as a cosmic fortune teller even if God has already shared with all of us our future.

The road to hell might be paved with good intentions, but you won’t find that road on Facebook or its picture book cousin, Instagram. I recently experienced the power of their clandestine computer-driven algorithms with two recent back-to-back daily devotion posts (see above and below.) Going from several hundred views a day to seven. Weekday…
