Our nation and world are reeling in deception and darkness. Lies are all around us: corrupt elections, corrupt politicians, corrupt news media, corrupt public education, a corrupt CDC, corrupt Supreme Court and governors, corrupt pastors who preach an unanointed church with no power to transform society and a powerful satan who will destroy society. Other atrocities include child sex trafficking, sexual perversion, drugs, hopelessness and pandemic fear. So is this the end? Should I despair? Absolutely NOT!!!

I devoured Neil Miller’s book, What If Listening to God Was Easy? The theme of this book has been my heart's passion for 40 years, and it is enjoyable, fun, and easy to read as it is filled with stories, just as Jesus’ teaching was.

Have you ever changed your mind? Do you see the ambiguity in this question? It could mean that you have used your existing mind to reach a different opinion on some question, but it could also mean that you have acquired a new mind, which is a much more substantial change. My word refers to putting on the mind of Christ, and to being transformed by the renewing of your mind. These are big changes. Have you experienced them? How would you know? Do you live with a conscious awareness that your view of reality has undergone a radical shift and there is no going back?

God’s infinite love for us is the source of true living, and without it we are living an incomplete life – really only just existing. That is why pursuing God‘s love with all of our heart is the most worthy endeavor, because then we will find life to the fullest - the abundant life Jesus came for us to have. Through communion with God, we can fill our deepest need to be perfectly loved through intimacy with our Creator, who knows our deepest secrets, yet is still forever crazy about us!

Psalm 63:3 says, “Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you.”
