"Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life."
Proverbs 4:23

“Wellspring” Fourth Anniversary & Birthday Edition

May 2, 2014 by Nancy Bentz 3 Comments

Wellspring of Life and granddaughter Rielyn turned four years old today! When I published my first post on May 2, 2010 there was no way of knowing what the next four years would bring. Life has been full of joyous and difficult seasons, but one thing remains the same: our Lord. He is more than […]

Vineyard Days – Your Eyes as Doves’

February 12, 2014 by Nancy Bentz 4 Comments

Turn your eyes upon Jesus… Look full in His wonderful face. And the things of earth will grow strangely dim In the light of His glory and grace. Helen H. Lemmel *** I remember the feelings of being a new bride. Beyond the wedding plans and honeymoon, making a home of our own and being […]

Vineyard Days – Under His Shadow, Part 2

January 23, 2014 by Nancy Bentz 2 Comments

“All earthly things are the shadows of heavenly realities… If you would know Jesus, study the vine.” ~  Andrew Murray ~  *** Scripture is full of mystery, yet we are told to ask and be given, to seek and to find, to knock and to have the door of understanding opened up to us. It […]

Vineyard Days – Under His Shadow

January 12, 2014 by Nancy Bentz 1 Comment

“All earthly things are the shadows of heavenly realities…” ~  Andrew Murray ~ Embarking on the new year, I dug out a binder this past week from a class I developed and taught seven years ago; then six years ago; and a third time five years ago. Holy Spirit has been prompting me for several […]

Vineyard Days – A Company of Horses

December 13, 2013 by Nancy Bentz 1 Comment

Sometimes our heart knows what our lips cannot quite articulate. There is a stirring inside that is of a nature not our own. An air of expectancy and restlessness. Anticipation, Heinz ketchup-style. An impatience born of a sense of something greater… I think it’s not too far-fetched to compare such stirring to internally ‘pawing the […]

Vineyard Days – Three Confessions of Love, Part 3

October 29, 2013 by Nancy Bentz 1 Comment

If we could imagine the love of one who loves men purely for their own sake, and not because of any need or desire of his own, purely desires their good, and yet loves them wholly, not for what at this moment they are, but for what he knows he can make of them because […]

Vineyard Days – In the Footsteps of the Flock

August 1, 2013 by Nancy Bentz 4 Comments

*** Yoyo-ing between frustration about herself and others and feeling good about her self-impression and how others viewed her, had swung her one too many times in the wrong direction. She was worn out and had finally tired. It was about time. The Shulamite was ready to listen… “Tell me, You whom my soul loves, […]

Vineyard Days – A Branch, A Vine and A Pile of Rocks

July 26, 2013 by Nancy Bentz Leave a Comment

The Shulamite was coming uncorked. She was upset with those close to her (“my mother’s children were angry with me” SS 1:6b), while not yet realizing that her frustration resulted from some erringly placed attachments. All she knew is that she was laboring hard, trying her best, working long hours guarding the vineyard, and feeling […]

Vineyard Days – The Processes of Potential

July 21, 2013 by Nancy Bentz Leave a Comment

*** The Shulamite had some un-learning to do. But that did not deter her Shepherd Lover. In fact, this is where He excelled and took such delight for He had the patience of Job and His very nature was hope. This Man with a plan possessed great confidence in the final outcome. And it was […]

Vineyard Days – Rock Piles of Potential

July 18, 2013 by Nancy Bentz 3 Comments

A rock pile ceases to be a rock pile the moment a single man contemplates it, bearing within him the image of a cathedral. –  Antoine de Saint-Exupery Previously: Either way, we have a pile of rocks to deal with. What becomes of the rocks has everything to do with the image we bear within…  *** […]
