Never Sleeps

While a pastor on the Fort Berthold Reservation I was honored with the Indian name, "NeverSleeps". It was primarily because I was often responding to particular needs in the middle of the night.

Even more relevant, the Lord Himself, Maker of all, "Never Sleeps".

Surely you know.
Surely you have heard.
The Lord is the God who lives forever,
who created all the world.
He does not become tired or need to rest.
No one can understand how great his wisdom is.

Isaiah 40:28

Welcome to every reader. I am a simple follower of Jesus. He is perfect, I often fall short.

Stolen Focus

Stolen Focus

(“And I know God has made everything beautiful for its time. God has also placed in our minds a sense of eternity.” Ecclesiastes 3:11a)


Meanwhile the rains let up for the moment when,
looking up,
the seagull stole the focus from the cliffs in the foreground.
A white brush-stroke across the opening sky, it rose while
gravity kept us all tied down.
