These lilacs connect
To the vine of existence
In the vine is life
Apart from the vine,
Obviously these flowers die.
We are just like that!

“I am the vine, you are the branches.
John 15:5 (NIV)
If you remain in me, and I in you,
you will bear much fruit;
apart from me you can do nothing.”

“For where two or three gather in my name,
Matthew 18:20
there am I with them.”
This morning I thought
I had lost my WordPress posts.
I thought I’d lost YOU!
Words of comfort came –
Rushed in to reassure me:
We are connected!
My history is here…
Eight years of important posts
Help keep us in touch.
Apart from you – Pop!
The balloon of my WordPress
Loses all its air!

When I posted this
Blog from my iPhone today
Only Youtube showed.
It’s an important
Message about connection
From Ronald Reagan.
Whether you are from the USA or not;
whether you are Republican or Democrat or Independent,
You should watch this.
It was recorded in a different era,
at a time when it was not seen as divisive
to evoke God’s name in the White House.
The Bible was not used as a prop.
It was quoted as a means of
encouraging us to reach out in love…
Reach out and
JUST LOVE ONE ANOTHER!
Please stay connected!
Apart from you, my blog is nothing.
Apart from God, I am nothing!

Caralyn of BeautyBeyondBones
(do you follow her here on WordPress?)
wrote to me today and said,
“We are all part of His family,
and I pray we all realize that
and start to act accordingly,
with love for our fellow brother and sisters!”
AMEN, Caralyn.
Amen, my dear brothers and sisters.
I love you all.
Please stay connected.
See ya tomorrow.
