My Grandmother died. When I was a child. The day she was buried, I saw a white, feathered creature rise from a fountain nearby. Not sure if what I was seeing was right….but at the time…. It was so real. I was taken back. Surprised. Eyes fixed on this larger than life creation of God…. Risen […]
An Encounter with a Stranger on the Corner
Major intersection. Cars racing by. We turn and look. Spotting strangest sight. A man with a horn. Dressed in unconventional style. Signs announcing….. Jesus the Savior.

To waters edge whispering. And there…..I drown in silence. Devouring His peace, like breakfast to the soul. Searching for Heaven’s handouts….even more….. And I absorb unfiltered air….unbound by walls […]
