As you can see its been quite some time since I posted.  I started this blog because I liked writing and at the time I felt the inspiration to write. So maybe it was appropriate that the lack of inspiration in writing had coincided with the lack of inspiration I felt about life in general.  Where was God these past few years?  He was there, just dimmer.  Some people call it the desert, a place of dryness, and maybe that’s where God had placed me.  It was an odd and disconcerting place for me to be, if only because I had always been in places of springs…but I do know God was there with me the whole time, just like he was with the Israelites in the desert and like them I am beginning to see the “cloud by day and fire by night.”  Maybe I am still not out of the desert,

but I do sense a wind blowing,

a light shining forth,

dreams long forgotten,

visions long ago discarded,

whispers of a voice that I have not heard in a long time,

a stirring that I have not felt in a long time,

Where do I go from here?  I have absolutely no clue, but something deep within me is stirring once again, something inexpressible, a God that I thought fell silent is beginning to speak…..and this post is hopefully the sign of something more….
