Good morning... My own email address was dropped from my "Sue to You" subscription list again. The reason given? "I am no longer interested." Let me assure you, I am still very interested in listening to God with you, morning by morning. Glitches. We all have them. We all hate them. Yet, glitches hold up for us a very important [...]
Good morning... "If you extend your soul to the hungry," she said, "and satisfy the afflicted soul, then your light will dawn in the darkness and your darkness shall be as the noonday." From Colorado to Atlanta, the slow, soothing voice of my spiritual direction supervisor reached me through the phone, giving me the gift of Isaiah 58:10 (NKJV). God's [...]
Good morning... Today I wake to the perfect "Verse of the Day" from Bible Gateway, the online site that helps me to treasure hunt for companioning Scriptures for each of my morning messages. May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you the same attitude of mind toward each other that Christ Jesus had, so that with one [...]
Good morning... Every morning, I try to discern a truth God is teaching. "...he who has My word, let him speak My word faithfully. What has straw in common with wheat [for nourishment]?” says the Lord. Is not My word like fire [that consumes all that cannot endure the test]?” says the Lord, “and like a hammer that breaks [...]
Good morning... One of my blog posts from this week felt meaningful when it was crafted around 3:00 am, but when I re-woke and re-read the words, my soul crinkled her nose, "This one is a dud."

Good morning... The How Stuff Works website provides a creative answer to my brain's quirky question: "How does a tuning fork work?" The website explains, "The choir comes to a hush as the choirmaster steps into the room. 'All right, let's tune,' she declares to the assembled singers. Producing a two-pronged metal tool from her pocket, she strikes it [...]
Good morning... A soulmate subscriber, whom I have never met, sent me two quotes in response to my blog post yesterday. First she shared this truth: "Listening is the highest form of love." I adore this sentence! What wise encouragement. When we attentively listen we are actively loving. Next she quoted Bill Bullard: "Opinion is really the lowest form [...]
Good morning... Driving somewhere in the middle of Alabama, I was singing songs to the company of the Christian radio station. To my amazement, the Scripture verses which had greeted me in the morning came through my car speaker to bookend my night. Before the rising of the sun, God had drawn me to this unfamiliar-to-me passage during my [...]
Good morning... Once I laid eyes on the Message translation of Proverbs 2, my mind, my heart, and my soul fell deeply in love. Here is the heading above these verses: "Make Insight Your Priority." Tune your ears to the world of Wisdom; set your heart on a life of Understanding. That’s right—if you make Insight your priority, and [...]
Good morning... I love the promise given in the Message translation of Luke 1:79. Through the heartfelt mercies of our God, God’s Sunrise will break in upon us, Shining on those in the darkness, those sitting in the shadow of death, Then showing us the way, one foot at a time, down the [...]
