Sanctuary Woods Preserve

It is 2:12 PM Monday afternoon. It has been a long day. I am ready to go to bed. I got up this morning sometimes pass 6 o'clock AM. I got up because it was too hot under the sheets. We have had warm weather the last couple of days and we have flannel sheets on our bed. So I got up before Carol and made coffee. I next read my Bible (still reading the Gospel of Matthew) and Carol got up to face ...

It is now 11:51 AM late Thursday morning, soon it will be 12 o’clock PM afternoon. Time keeps flowing into infinite space. Where does the Time go? Carol and I took Rudy for a walk this morning at Kollen Park instead of downtown. It was pretty by Lake Macatawa this morning. I like seeing the clouds floating above the Lake. Oh the beauties of God’s world! After walking Rudy we drove downtown to JP...

restoration of communion between God and man

It is 12:22 PM Wednesday afternoon. It has been a typical day thus far. Not much to jump up and down about. I got up this morning around 6:44 AM. I was having a dream where I was in some huge basement expecting to be spooked by ghosts when I decided I had enough and got out of bed. When I got up I made a pot of coffee and read some more of the Gospel of Matthew (one of the four Gospels in the ...

when I feel some pangs of desire I know I am not dead

It is 1:37 PM Wednesday afternoon in the flow of existence. Carol called me on her cell phone around 11:30 AM this morning and asked if I had eaten anything? I told her I had eaten two pancakes and a bowl of corn flakes. She wanted to know if I wanted to go downtown to the Windmill for breakfast? Carol said we could make a decision what to do after walking Rudy at Kollen Park and going to the ...

the joys of eternal light

It is 2:17 PM Thursday afternoon in the flow of existence. What is another word for existence? Late this morning I took Rudy for a walk at Windmill Island and when we got home Carol was home from her errands. She had more errands to do, so we left to do those errands. My wife is a busy woman. Carol had a doctor's appointment at 2 o'clock PM so she left around 1:45 PM. I ate lunch and then came ...

decay, dirt, and dust

...must need the money. I read blogs this morning and checked my e-mail mail. I have a new reader in my Diaryland blog “glorycloud”. I like getting new readers in my four blogs “newcreation”, “crookedfingers”, “glorycloud” and “The Dark Night”. Yesterday I realized I do not talk to anyone deeply. I can’t remember the last time I experience real deep heart to heart communication. Weird. I can write ...

Upper Macatawa Natural Area

whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely

It is 1:46 PM Saturday afternoon. I am once again down in the basement writing some more words. I am not in the mood to close my eyes and take a short 45 minute nap. Carol went to bed to sleep for a couple of hours. When Carol is not working she needs to catch up on her rest. (my wife is a night nurse at a local community hospital-my wife has been a nurse 35 years). I wrote in my blogs and then ...

The Two Kingdoms

It is 12:04 PM Saturday afternoon in the flow of existence. I am down in our basement writing in my blogs. I am not in the mood to record some of my existence, but I am a creature of habit. This morning I was up around 7 o'clock AM. I made a pot of coffee and brought in the morning newspapers off the driveway. It is another nice sunny cloudy day. This morning we drove to Douglas for a used book ...
