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.

A Quieted Soul

“But I have calmed and quieted my soul, like a child quieted at its mother’s breast; like a child that is quieted is my soul.” Psalm 131:2

What happens within you when the turmoil begins? Things are going along swimmingly. (What an interesting turn of phrase, by the way. I have no idea its origin, but, when all is well, isn’t like the peaceful backstroke on a lazy river?) Anyway, all is well; few ripples disturb your life. Then, from out of nowhere, Bam! The turmoil takes the roof off and dumps everything on you that its angry whirlwind has picked up along the way.
