Deletion Made

Thanks to the miracle of Statcounter, I've discovered that due to my mentioning a certain hateful person a few entries ago, his organization has posted a link to that entry as if it was some sort of trophy. 'Look at how controversial and persecuted we are!'

Well...I didn't like that entry to begin with. It wasn't written well and I didn't express my thoughts very clearly. So it's gone.

based on Mark 7:24-37

Faithful God, our ears are often closed to so much. We miss the needs around us because we're so preoccupied with our own desires. We don't heed the possibility of new things in our midst because we've become comfortably numb with what we've long been doing. We are unwilling to listen to your presence because acknowledging it might ask something of us that we're not ready to accept. Whether of our own making or due to complicating factors in our lives, we don't, can't, or won't hear what you wish to show us.

Our hope and prayer this day is that you take us aside to show us what we've been missing. Unstop our ears to your gifts. Speak your healing word of "Ephphatha" for us to be open to your speaking of renewing and grace-filled truths into our hearts. Through Jesus, show us what we've been ignoring whether in our own lives and in the lives of others so the movement of all your creation toward restoration and who…
