After capturing my reflections in a journal for over 28 years, one day I realized there was a subject change within my writings. I began to pull those reflections out and enter them into a document entitled “What Holy Spirit spoke to me today" (WHSSTMT). Each entry is an intimate lesson from Holy Spirit to me as I lived through life ;marriage, births, deaths, trials, finances, raising teens, crisis' of Faith, standing on Faith in a storm, and now as we send the last of our three children to college. 
I realized that entries are actually Holy Spirit’s testimony of being "real to me". This is the fundamental problem with Faith these days. Do we really believe Jesus is real and left Holy Spirit to guide us as we seek Him in everyday life? I began to see my stories as a collection of Holy Spirit testimonies; a Devotional of how He is Real. My desire is for this labor of love to be shared with others to encourage them to experience His Presence. I pray regularly that my pen would be one of a ready writer with anointed words of the Spirit to bring healing, guidance, conviction, blessing and to better understand the love of the Father's heart towards each person.
My hope was to finish the ambitious 365 entries by Fall 2020, but we all know an unusual world wide event occurred in 2020 that would throw the most disciplined person for a loop. I did not stop writing but instead, I entered into a different level of believing that He Is Real To Me. Can you imagine setting up a website, instagram, and FB Business page declaring to the world that He is Real? It resulted in a new season of stretching to make sure I really meant what I said. Only now, I am doubling down on that statement: He Is Real To Me!
I invite you to pray for interest in He Is Real To Me and the publication process. In the meantime, read my “Awakenings” blog that is a foretaste of the Devotional Entries. Please SUBSCRIBE and share with your friends. If you subscribe, you can follow the process and be first to know when the book launches.  
May you too look again and see that He is Real. Holy Spirit is right beside you guiding you into all that Jesus is calling forth from within you. Holy Spirit facilitates the journey which Jesus modeled for us. His Presence transforms the journey. Come along expectant!
