We educators know the feeling. You walk up to the white board and attempt to erase some scrawl. It won’t go away. Parties unnamed (remaining nameless to protect the guilty) used permanent ink in stead of erasable ink. Grrrrr! It’s not going away.
When He asks to write something on the board of our hearts do we hand him erasable or permanent ink markers? Do we willfully insist on the right of cancellation? Or do we instinctively yield to One wiser than ourselves?
I have to say my record on this one is shaky, at best, dismal most often. God frequently desires communication with me at the heart level. Do I value properly the proclamations of God? Here, Lord, its indelible ink.

About Me
- Tim G.
- Born in Topeka, Kansas and having grown up in eastern Kansas (Lawrence, Desoto, Pittsburg, and Topeka), I am originally native to the area. Once living in Kansas, I have lived in each of the following states as well: Missouri, Oklahoma, Iowa, Indiana, Ohio, and California. My wife and I have two married daughters, two sons-in-law, and four grandchildren. Gray hair is earned, not given out. (No cats, dogs, parrots, mice, bugs or alligators, but lots of frogs.) One of the best things about being a parent is that you learn a lot about The Father and His love for His children.
