Daily Dose of God’s Glorious Love

I write about something that happened over twenty years ago. We bought 7 acres of land in Morgan county Tennessee near the Catoosa Wildlife Management area. One week I spent a few days at a rough camping area in Catoosa to prepare my sermons for the next quarter. I was able to hike during the day and write down my sermons before dark came. While there I saw the Milky Way for the second time in my life. The first time was from the deck of the USS Independence (CVA 62). I thought about all those stars had seen over human history (or for God His Story)I wondered what story they would tell if they could. At this moment the arm of the Milky Way began to reveal their story. I saw small encampments become small towns and then cities. They started off following God or a god and were powerful and wealthy. Soon they grew comfortable and weaker. They either turned from God or created a god that allowed them to live as they wanted. The poor and weak suffered first but then began to devour ea...

A part of me wanted to join with them but My Lord and My Love reminded me that I used to be part of that river but He had called me out. The river flowed on with each one dancing, singing and throwing their hands in the air. Each one was part of the river but they also moved in their own way. The noise they made was very loud and was so diverse that it became madness and some fell but they gradually rejoined the river along its path. Some fell into this huge pit and for a while they stayed there dancing and singing as though to hide from themselves the tears flowing like a river down their cheeks and over their body. They were sold by others around the pit to others who would stop for a time to use and abuse them. Some got pregnant and their child was ripped from their arms and sold to others as they danced and sang by. Th...

Standing at the copse of trees I look across a field of grass Beyond is a line of trees It is a far distance of fields The wind pushes the grass It is like thousands of legs I start to share the story Two days Lee's army failed Failed to dislodge or defeat Meade's army formed a hook Lee thrashed to break the line July heat was like a weight Sickly smell of death assailed All waited for the next chapter Could it be the last chapter Across the field was the enemy The enemy on both sides waited At the tree copse they prepared Guns were placed and sighted Men either piled up or dug in Prepared their rifles for attack Supplies were brought up fast Over the hill the relief men lay Beyond hospital tents were set up In the line of trees they prepared One of the longest line of guns set The men ate, watched and prayed Prepared their rifles for attack Those trees seemed so far away A few could sleep but most waited They waited to break the blue line ...
