And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light: and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness. And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. (Gen 1:2-5)

A Wandering Star
Posted by appolus on January 12, 2012
Do you wander in the vast expanse of the heavens? Does your hopelessness and despair feel like it could fill a mighty chasm? Does the darkness seem like it has no end? These are just some words to describe hopelessness. Hopelessness is a form of hell, perhaps the closest thing to hell that humans can experience this side of eternity.

Does the Glory of God rise within you?

In this “season,” that we just celebrated the world celebrated a caricature, some little baby Jesus in a manger and it falls into the same realm as Santa Claus and the tooth fairy. What an honor that we have, to know, to worship and speak to the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords through the Holy Spirit.

Recent surgery has interrupted my normal schedule. For the last week it seems that, day and night, there has always been someone around or I have been tired and outta of it with pain meds and so on.
