Practice the Presence of God today. At the top of each hour, turn to a short Psalm-1, 8, 23, 42 etc and read it quietly but aloud.

[Terrence O'Casey @TerryOCasey]

"Avoid White Pages" in your Bible. Read while eating, working on your car, resting from raking leaves. Dirty Bibles=Cleaner hearts.

[Terrence O'Casey @TerryOCasey]

"The Devil smiles as we plan, laughs as we get too busy...and trembles when we pray, especially when we pray united."

[Terrence O'Casey @TerryOCasey]

Our hyper-transparent society-we expose sins of parents as Noah's son Ham in Gen 9; Shem/Japheth covered their father's drunken weaknesses!

AM Creation walk in snow-white tailed deer looked up, snorted a warning to her fawn, stamped her r. foot, flipped her snow white tail & ran-

1st person in Torah to use HaShem/Yahweh is a Woman=Eve in Gen. 4:1
One of 1st to recognize who Jesus was in N.T.-a Woman, Jn11:27=Martha

One last insight on women-Only one ancient middle eastern creation story has "Woman's creation-Genesis. She must be important :)

[Terrence O'Casey @TerryOCasey]

"Adam knew Eve." Hebrew word "yada" is NEVER used for animals procreating. Always very relational and intimate, not merely intellectual.

[Terrence O'Casey @TerryOCasey]

Women:Gen. 2:18-instead of a "Companion corresponding to" can mean a companion who will "benegdo-Oppose him (Heb.)," if his counsel's wrong!

[Terrence O'Casey @TerryOCasey]

"Incarnation" is a 50 cent phrase worth a million bucks IF we get it-That we too become "vulnerable for the sake of others."

[Terrence O'Casey @TerryOCasey]

A synonym of "incarnation" is "becoming vulnerable for the sake of others." Jesus, eternal, immortal, became, well, vulnerable for our sake.

Memorizing Acts 11 in God's DIVINE ACROPOLIS where huge old growth Ponderosa Pine pillars support the cobalt-Blue Heavens this morn.

[Terrence O'Casey @TerryOCasey]

Walked a sugarpine forest this morn w/foot long cones glistening w/sap-while memorizing God's WRITTEN Word, & reveling in his CREATED World.

[Terrence O'Casey @TerryOCasey]

Why do many Pastors in their 50's lose their passion, their prophetic zeal- settling down like neutered, de-clawed & defanged circus lions?

[Terrence O'Casey @TerryOCasey]

Dr. God did a Cesarean birth at Caesarea, Israel-Acts 10. Peter was taking his sweet time & Dr. God stepped in w/the Holy Spirit midwifing!

[Terrence O'Casey @TerryOCasey]

@revkencarter -Reading a Psalm a day keeps the "Shrink" (Dr.) Away.

[Terrence O'Casey @TerryOCasey]

If we always end up forcing people see things our way-black and white, we end up making folks black and blue. Learn from others.

Going out to catch dinner in front of my house. If the Osprey gets the rainbow trout before I do, I am thinking about having "river chicken"

[Terrence O'Casey @TerryOCasey]

Today, when life get tough-count the living, not the dead. Fix on blessings. Suffering softens our hearts & is a gift. Count the living...

[Terrence O'Casey @TerryOCasey]

When discouraged-find several other people hurting-With the encouragement you give to them, you will find encouragement.
