Daily God Stories (Sightings)

Hey there

For many years for those who know me, I have enjoyed sharing my daily God sightings and I promised to write them down someday and share them.

Well today becomes that day.  I find myself in a bit of a pruning phase of my life, more refining by fire is what we like to say, and I know that especially during these times it is important to seek God in all things and in all times.

So I have decided that when my daily God sightings appear, that is when he shows up so intimately and personally in my life, I will call them for what they are.  Some of them will seem a stretch to those who read it, others may find coincidence or "karma" or the universe giving back, but as for me and my keyboard we will call them what they are to me.  A loving God who is there through everything, who will never leave me or forsake me, who cares about all that matters to me , because his truth says that it matters to him.

My daily sighting.

Today I found myself unpacking my kitchen with a lot of mixed emotions for reasons I will not share here, and I decided I would use my time to learn about something we can all use work on relationships.  I had been told by a friend that I simply had to check out a series that Andy Stanely is currently presenting.  As I unpacked and listened I could feel myself  changing my perspective on a few beliefs I had that just weren't working for me and a few things that needed to get right in my thinking.  After the third session in the series a letter is read by a woman who was transformed through a commitment she had made and through a growing feeling of God's ever present love.  I was reminded right there and then that I serve a God of not second chances but 18 and 19.  Praise God.  They then ended with a song by David Crowder, ( one of my fav's) and the song just crushed me in a beautiful way, it goes oh how he loves me ohhhh... then there are the lyrics and as it is going on I begin weeping because of the love I feel and the truth I know to be real in that song... and just as this line hits....

So Heaven meets earth like an unforeseen kiss....




my beautiful pup leaps off the couch in the other room and comes over and starts kissing all the tears from my eyes....... and it was so sweet and so perfect.. only God has that kind of sweet humor and timing.




I have included the rest of the lyrics for you all to enjoy.  I have a God story everyday, so check back if you want to hear about them.  Also just a note I first began seeing them when I prayed one day very specifically asking God that if he really cares about me, and the little things that we would make it really obvious that he was there, because as I told him I can be kind of well... lets just say sometimes I am just pretty.


God Bless see you soon.







He is jealous for me
Loves like a hurricane, I am a tree
Bending beneath the weight of his wind and mercy
When all of a sudden
I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory
And I realise just how beautiful You are
And how great Your affections are for me

(Pre-Chorus)
And O how He loves us
Oh, O how He loves us
How He loves us all

(Chorus)
Yeah He loves us
O how He loves us
O how He loves us
O how He loves

(Verse 2)
We are His portion and He is our prize
Drawn to redemption by the grace in His eyes
If grace is an ocean, we're all sinking





So Heaven meets earth like an unforeseen kiss
And my heart turns violently inside of my chest
I don't have time to maintain these regrets
When I think about the way
