Something you write may make way more sense to me personally than a "famous" author. I think you do have a gift of seeing the heart of God in a very real and special way and it will be through those intimate moments I think God is going to use your writing the most!!ThreeGirlyGirlshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18083155721729508314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1979718059516665913.post-81587901940169912872008-01-13T05:44:00.000-06:002008-01-13T05:44:00.000-06:00Silence and contemplation, two things that are gua...Silence and contemplation, two things that are guarenteed to put us in a good position to hear from God.

I hope to jump back in tonight. I too enjoy reading Elisabeth Elliot, which is saying a lot because it's very difficult for me to get into a non-fiction book. There's only a few non-fiction writers that can hold my attention, and she's one of them!Cahleen @ The Alt Storyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14704918285007073873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1979718059516665913.post-32758091386059504062008-01-12T20:57:00.000-06:002008-01-12T20:57:00.000-06:00And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount be...And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; [but] the LORD [was] not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; [but] the LORD [was] not in the earthquake: I Kings 19:11<BR/><BR/> 1Ki 19:12 And after the earthquake a fire; [but] the LORD [was] not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice. <BR/><BR/><BR/><BR/>I have never red Elisabeth Elliot.. but I think I will now... <BR/><BR/>That is a great post and I so enjoyed reading it... I have learned in my years, and I must say the hard way that to speak softly and word and then allow the Holy Spirit to do the rest.. I was very mouthy when I was younger... and I also have thought about a book.. but after a few years and not hearing a definite word from the Lord I understand that just being me and offering Jesus is my book.......... <BR/><BR/>Mom is out of hospital tonight and doing better... More tests next week but for tonight she is home again........ thanks for your prayers........Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12492336975389718296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1979718059516665913.post-49194394189280821872008-01-12T19:29:00.000-06:002008-01-12T19:29:00.000-06:00Sharon, I just posted on my blog a thank you to yo...Sharon, I just posted on my blog a thank you to you for the Daily Does (and yes I spelled that right, come see).

I enjoyed it and look forward to catching up with all of the news.<BR/><BR/>To answer your question, they will leave Michelle's left ovary as long as there isn't a problem with it. They like to leave one. They left my right one when I had my hysterectomy in '94. I have never had to take hormones and had a very easy transition through menopause.<BR/><BR/>Take care, my friend. It's so nice to be back and catching up on all the news.<BR/><BR/>Blessings,<BR/>MaryMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08175754179624182953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1979718059516665913.post-50816350935405407172008-01-12T16:26:00.000-06:002008-01-12T16:26:00.000-06:00This was such a great post.This was such a great post.Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09275456448997619944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1979718059516665913.post-39989221176591537722008-01-12T14:53:00.000-06:002008-01-12T14:53:00.000-06:00I LOVEd this silence and OBERSERVATION.

Many of them come from Him, but that doesn't mean they always come to fruition. If God asks you to do something, then you do it no matter how many other people have done it before you or how many people you think could do it better than you. God's truth is ultimately the only thing that matters, but if we don't share that truth then people won't have the opportunity to know it! just a thought...<BR/>Have a wonderful weekend!AKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13550251937798447514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1979718059516665913.post-39632751993790786342008-01-12T11:48:00.000-06:002008-01-12T11:48:00.000-06:00Great post!!
