This is so inspiring. I'm always praying for God to restore what the locusts have eaten in my daughter's life as an addict. So much to grieve when a person is still alive. He has sent honey. I have no choice but to trust him.

I really like this. For a moment, it made me identify myself with John the Baptist. . . That man who's diet was locusts & honey. . . "Blessed is he who is not offended by me."

I’m so glad you made that connection. John the Baptist definitely came to mind when I wrote this!

Check out the book the Prisoner in the Third Cell by Gene Edwards. It dramatizes the life of John the Baptist
