– verse from a mother’s heart – Every birth! assigned a new beginning, jars of clay that on this earth will trod … how vast and varied His endless thoughts are toward us loved by the Mother heart of Father God “Who will they be, this one so fresh from Heaven? How will they grow […]
“Wellspring” Eighth Anniversary & Birthday Edition
May 2, 2010 to May 2, 2018 … “Wellspring” Eighth Anniversary & Birthday Edition Rielyn & Wellspring are celebrating again! As I pondered what to pen for this eighth anniversary of Wellspring of Life, I was re-encouraged (which I needed) while tearing open sauce packets for a south of the border breakfast at the office.

Vineyard Days – Selah IX
Six months have passed since we left off the mini-study of Molid (Mo-leed) in the five Flawless posts. Though it’s been a lengthy selah already, welcome to Vineyard Days-Selah IX before we continue on. No matter how I do or do not plan my writing focus and time, Holy Spirit seems to delight in proving the efficacy1 […]
Vineyard Days – Horticulture of the Heart
Now the parable is this: The seed is the Word of God. But as for that [seed] in the good soil, these are [the people] who, hearing the Word, hold it fast in a just (noble, virtuous) and worthy heart, and steadily bring forth fruit with patience.

Vineyard Days – Grafted In
For quite some time I have been convinced there is absolutely nothing about one’s life that is not spoken to in Scripture. (This post hits rather close to home, spiritually and physically). Some things are overtly obvious, while others are of a more mysterious nature meant to be searched out and discovered. Embedded within the […]

“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 – Three Confessions of Love, Part 3
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 – Selah III
Penning Vineyard Days has been to this wellspring’s heart what writer’s block is to an author’s novel. I hit a wall. For four weeks I have been focused on writing other pieces and getting a Fall video series underway with fourteen students in the class. It was also four weeks ago that I posted Part […]
Vineyard Days – Three Confessions of Love, Part 2
If a branch is going to bear fruit, there comes a time in the believer’s life when growth is not an option. It is a necessity. To advance upon the stairs toward the heart of the Beloved means that Eros love must be left behind and a higher expression of love embraced. It is a […]
