          On January 29th, I was sitting in my chair engaged in a face time conversation with a friend, when a series of colored balloons rose up behind me. I not only saw this but the person I was talking to saw this as well. The multicolored balloons, perhaps 4 or 5 of them, had no strings attached as they floated upward and disappeared into the ceiling.

    Maine continues to see a steady increase of qualified buyers while lack of inventory and current interest rates contribute to a lower-than-average number of real estate transactions.  Statistics shared by Maine Listings indicate a 6.14 percent decrease in sales comparing December 2023 to December 2022. For that same time, the median sales price increased 6.21 percent, reaching $350,500. The MSP indicates that half of the homes were sold for more and half sold for less.

        The Holy Spirit is our teacher.  Before we can teach others, we must first be taught. What the Holy Spirit teaches is in Spirit, and has life – the nourishing manna from heaven (John 6:63). When Truth is ministered to others by the anointing of the Holy Spirit, His voice is heard.

    Prophetic Tidbit: We proclaim to the people what the Bible says, but not what God is saying. There is a difference between expounding Scripture, and revealing the heart of the Father for this hour. Both are needed. But it seems the goal is to instruct people to educate them, rather than revealing Christ to them.

        I love Pakistan and its people. You see Christian events like this in the picture of the crusade tent in many places throughout the year. The fire of revival has come to Pakistan. There are hundreds of Churches, thousands of pastors and leaders who are God fearing ministers of Christ. People worship openly - even in the face of a 90% Muslim country (Some who are my friends).

    The PAWS medical staff are following a highly infectious, upper respiratory illness that is affecting dogs here in Maine closely. Symptoms are similar to kennel cough and the cause is still to be determined.  It seems to be spreading rapidly and has popped up across the country. Most exposures happen in settings like doggy day care, in a kennel environment, and other places where dogs congregate together (dog parks, hiking trails etc.) but there have been cases with no known exposure.
