Do You Remember Me? by David VanCronkhite

Last updated on: May 30, 2010 at 5:07 am By editorconvergingzone

It was a brisk, spring morning with the sun beginning its path across the mountain town I was driving through. The post office was bustling with people inside and out. At the local breakfast spot, people sat in chairs outside chatting. Kids ran in the lawns of the houses along the little two-lane road going through this scenic view. Then it hit me. I couldn’t remember when I last “saw” people. I felt like I had just been reinserted into... Read more

Transition from Sheriff to Gardner by Bob Mumford

Last updated on: May 30, 2010 at 5:01 am By editorconvergingzone

Slide 1 He cuts off every branch of me that doesn’t bear grapes. And every branch that is grape-bearing he prunes back so it will bear even more.[1] I made my transition from a sheriff to a gardener when I learned that Father, Himself, is a Gardener, not a sheriff. Father reserves the pruning for Himself; He does not let anyone else prune. The Greek word for vinedresser is georgos meaning a farmer or husbandman who tills the ground. Our... Read more

Destiny’s Irritation by Victoria Boyson

Last updated on: May 30, 2010 at 4:48 am By editorconvergingzone

All Hannah wanted was a son, but God wanted a prophet for His people and a friend for Himself. There was a certain man from Ramathaim, a Zuphite from the hill country of Ephraim, whose name was Elkanah…He had two wives; one was called Hannah and the other Peninnah. Peninnah had children, but Hannah had none (1 Samuel 1:1-2). And because the Lord had closed her womb, her rival kept provoking her in order to irritate her (1 Samuel 1:6).... Read more

“If It Were No So, I Would Have Told You” by Robert Ricciardelli

Last updated on: May 29, 2010 at 2:12 pm By Robert Ricciardelli

Jesus said, “In my Father’s house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you.” His Word can be understood and practically followed. Religion has diluted the simplicity of His message. 38,000 doctrinal variations have replaced loving God and loving others. Christ makes it clear that He will never leave you, and lead you into all truth while reminding you, “If it were not so, I would have told you.” Read more

A Final Covenant of Better and More by Robert Ricciardelli

Last updated on: May 29, 2010 at 2:28 am By Robert Ricciardelli

Spirit led living creates a hunger for more. More of Him, more giving of our life to others, a progressive Father pleasing existence. Once we taste the elements of eternity, we want live in the elements of His Kingdom and will not go back to obsolete, aging, and disappearing covenants. We are now becoming human as God has intended, supernaturally living, moving and having our being in the garden of His presence. Read more

Childlike Reality by Robert Ricciardelli

Last updated on: May 28, 2010 at 3:34 am By Robert Ricciardelli

We are all eternal children of a loving God and Father. He wants us to approach Him with childlike faith. That means we recognize our need for Him and that we do not have it all figured out, ever. This allows us to have grace for each other’s messes while Christ is being more fully formed in us. Many trials and mistakes are all part of the learning. Enjoy the eternal journey you are on, you are not alone. Read more

Contradictions That Move Us Toward God by Robert Ricciardelli

Last updated on: May 25, 2010 at 5:23 am By Robert Ricciardelli

Many contradictions in life may cause us to feel never fully present sometimes as we see doors open for us while many other doors remained closed. These same contradictions can bring us into touch with a deeper desire of fulfillment that lives beneath all other desires, and one that only God can satisfy. Contradictions, thus understood, create the friction that can help us move toward God. Read more
