We only have one life on this planet but whoever said we only have one chance? Christ is the God of the second chance and more if we need it. He said we can call things that are not as though they were. Let's start calling to all the goodness we can have in His name! Where ever He is leading I am calling, "SHOTGUN!"
Tell me where May hides- tell me when long light arrives when bees turn humming into honey
When will the finches dance on thistle tops and woodpeckers peck lunch from poles? Tell me when winter will be admonished and bashful seeds will grow brave- bursting goodness
Tell my heart when it will swell and fill with life again and hunt for the eggs of unhatched songs
Tell me when grass will cover grief and stretch as carpet for tender feet with just a memory of running
Tell me when the Glory will pass by to full-wake the world and I
An Early Summer (For a friend with Summer in her future)

The Lord's unfailing love and mercy still continue, Fresh as the morning, as sure as the sunrise... Lamentations 3:22-23
We are two Jesus Freaks left over from the 70's. (Kat works and writes and John is a Rescue Ministry chaplain and also ministers behind bars.) We have been with Christ many years and His wonderful love has informed every area of our lives. We know that everything in Him is "YES!" where His plans for all of us are concerned. Even if we are too slow or too contrary and we miss it so many times, He is never finished with us. "I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living." (Psalm 27) Our favorite postings are NOTHING IN HIS APPEARANCE 1/11, I BROUGHT YOU TO MYSELF 6/11, SHOW US YOUR GLORY 11/10, BEING SPLENDOR 7/1/11, HIS FAVOR LASTS A LIFETIME 5/12, WHERE DOES IT HURT? 9/10 and GENNESSARET 11/10. Come enjoy God with us!***
John and Kat LaMantia
