Hi, I'm Diana Furr!

Six years ago, I entered the Valley of Cancer. Now cancer-free (!), I am keenly aware that cancer of a different kind is attacking one of the liberties I cherish most in America -- Religious Liberty. Who will win this battle? People of faith, empowered with knowledge, practical strategies, and the courage to stand. This blog will become your "go to" place for Learning and Leverage, especially for leaders in business -- the next great mission field for Christ.

Lord of Divine Detours

You must be "up to" something, Lord... because I remembered something I haven't thought about in years. It was a commercial for a Winter Olympics of long ago.  The ski jumper had lost his balance on the downhill slope and, traveling at breakneck speeds (literally), crashed into (and over) the barricade alongside the ski jump...

Lord of Exclamation Points!

Sometimes -- Often? Always? -- You something amazing, Lord... to express the magnitude of Your Love for us.  Then, You go above and beyond that amazing thing... as if You aren't satisfied to just punctuate it with a "period," because it demands an "exclamation point"!   Not because You must... but because You can! Like yesterday. I received...

Today’s Everyday Miracle!

A broken piece of soap.  A resounding expression of LOVE. Some people think a "Miracle" must be a "Blind Man Given Sight" kind of thing.... or a "Dead Man Brought to Life."  I have not seen a miracle of that kind (with my natural eyes).  But I have seen many, many, of what I call...

God Who is Always ON TIME!

How do I put You into words, Lord, when words cannot possibly capture the wonder -- the magnitude -- of You??? ""The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands... They have no speech, they use no words; no sound is heard from them.  Yet their voice goes out...

Singing in the Rain!

I discovered a new "sense" today... all because of You, Lord.  It's just been that kind of day. I am quite fond of the five senses You have given us -- each one a priceless Gift.  To SEE countless shapes, textures and colors that take our breath away as they produce spectacular beauty.  To HEAR rich sounds that convey...

My 24/7 Teacher

I have often asked You, Lord, to not let my hours of sleep be only for my rest.  To also use them as my classroom if You had something important to teach me. Last night, school was in session. I was dreaming.  I was at a memorial service for someone I had loved dearly.  There...

Lord of Leaping Squirrels!

Leadership training for squirrels???  I wouldn't have believed it, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes! For many years now, we have enjoyed watching birds of many kinds and colors partake of a tasty feast from our bird feeder out front.  It hangs from a spot on a tree limb far away from...

Lord Who Unveils

What an amazing gift it is, Lord, when You give us "eyes" to see beyond The Veil. There is a Reality all around us.  A Reality we usually cannot see with our natural eyes.  Our five senses will only take us so far.  We who are people of Faith know there is more -- so...

Redeemer of Missed Opportunities

Oh, Abba... Sometimes You answer my prayers so quickly, You take my breath away!  How is it, then, that I can so totally miss The Answer... even when it is staring me right in the face? This morning, our time together was sweet.  I can't even totally reconstruct how my "heart talk" with You went.  Sometimes, there...

Lord Who Solves Every Riddle

What has no teeth, but lots of "bites"? What has no mouth, but won't stop talking?  :) What has no feet, but runs fast enough to reach the whole world in the blink of an eye? Answer:  Your NEW WEBSITE for the work You are calling me to do, Lord -- Champions of Destiny! By Your Abundant...
