The more love that you receive the more that you will have to distribute. As I sit here with people everywhere rushing to do the things they do, I put my ear pieces in and I find myself deep within Him - in that secret place - where no evil can reach me and plague befall me. I am not afraid. I am not at odds and I am not competing. I am contemplating giving and loving, being and learning. I am listening very carefully for next steps and for the voice that gives life and love. I need love. I need the love that only He gives so that I can be sure that you have it. I see now that I am to become a refining fire. i am to be sure that those He has sent to me receive LOVE - the LOVE that gives the life that purges, refines, prunes and defines.
Shelley said to me today that she can feel the softness that has been given me of late. She has recognized more kindness, gentleness and sensitivity. She can feel it when I speak to my Annie and she says that if YHWH can change me, there is hope for her. I need more of this. I need more.
I was encouraged, and as I am here to serve you, I have been strengthened to serve you better.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Hey there Dan...A very HAPPY BIRTHDAY to you!!! I just find the origins of names interesting and why things are called a called name...Like the month of JUNE for example....It is named after the Roman goddess Juno (Greek goddess Hera). They believed it was the best month for marriage, (even I was married in June unknowing...lol...) ...Juno being the goddess of marriage. This is because there are a lot of rainbows in the month of June and the goddess of rainbows was Iris, Junos messenger who was always with her. Rainbows have always been a fascination to us because of their beauty and their Biblical significance...Even on youtube they have this guy out in the woods who is fascinated after seeing "Double Rainbow" ...lol...( It is a very funny video if you havent seen it yet)...It has received over 2 million hits! ( you may find yourself laughing and crying at the same time listening to this guy!

Have you ever been really excited about something - So excited that you find it difficult to sleep? That's how I feel about #mydeeperlife.
On Sunday we had a great guest speaker in - Tom Waltz. We have worked together for almost a decade. We share a similar vision for the Kingdom. It is a vision that requires true intimacy with YHWH which overflows to intimacy with each other. This intimacy is not easily attained and must be fought for and protected once it is acquired.
As I sit on this wooden bench the delivery trucks bellow behind me, a splinter waits for one wrong move so that it can work its way into the backside of my thigh and the homeless are moving about.
I am excited because I feel the anointing all over me and I am, maybe for the first time, confident that Yahshua has given me a plan that is truly doable and global.
Let patience have her perfect work.
My coffee tastes especially good this morning.

Obedience -- there are rewards for obedience. Privileges are given. Authority is delegated and Responsibility is increased. Disobedience - there is punishment for disobedience. Privileges are withdrawn. All possible authority is withheld and responsibility is withdrawn - leaving the disobedient party in an ineffectual place.
Riding in the SUV with Warden Cain we could see that there was trouble in the fields where a crew was laboring. The mounted guards turned to attend to the issue. One guard raised his rifle and fired a shot into the air. The other guard did nothing. The fight stopped, but Warden Cain pushed the gas pedal to the floor. He left the road and raced across the field. He jumped out of the car and moved quickly toward the guard who had not fired his rifle. "Give me that rifle." the warden said. Warden Cain proceeded to empty the rifle, by shooting repeated shots into the air. "I pay you to shoot your rifle when fights break out. I pay you to do your job. You're fired. Get off this farm."
Express YOURSELF
Being a good steward
Are you too Comfortable?
Being a good steward
• So yesterday after a great morning in meditation with Yah, I went with my lovely wife to go get our first sonogram at the hospital, only to get the amazing news that WE’RE HAVING TWINS! HALELUYAH! YHWH blesses and provides! He honors the words and requests of His children. I am so humbly honored and impressed by Your Love, Abba. I will do my very best to never limit You, and I will be a steward in Your likeness over all that You have given me. First and foremost, I will be a good steward of Your Word.
Are you too Comfortable?
Why were you looking for Me among my earthly family, in the activities of my daily life? Didn’t you know that that has nothing to do with who I truly am? I am a Kingdom Builder, like My Father. If you want to find the real Me, find the Kingdom first. (All for One and One for all.) Forget about your own wants and needs; don’t follow your stomach, follow My words and those of My Father.
