For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light (for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth) and find out what pleases the Lord. Ephesians 5:8-10. On our local news last night we watched a report meant to dispel the myths…

This morning in our Friday morning Prayer Group, we watched a video by John Ortberg titled Practicing the Absence of God. He pointed us to the very first part of Genesis. In the Garden of Eden we see the serpent, we see Eve and we see Adam but we don’t “see” God. Why not? Because…

Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth. Worship the Lord with gladness; come before him with joyful songs. Know that the Lord is God. It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture. Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise;…

“I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.” Revelation 1:8. In Revelation 11 we see another kingdom of this earth end. Why? Solomon had so much. Wisdom of this world is not enough. Riches of this world is not enough.…

Are there mornings you feel more acutely the weight of worry? Pressing down until you have no strength left? I want so much to let go of that weight and yet it clings. God showed me this morning that just as I have traveled this unique journey with Him, so will those I love and…

Do you ever stop to consider the goodness of God? His creation, His help when we are helpless? His mercy and grace so needed by every one of us. One on one, God is here for you. 480 years after the people were led out of slavery in Egypt, Solomon draws all Israel to the…

Do you know God? How do you know God? This morning in our Friday Morning Prayer Group we were introduced to some daily morning prayer liturgies (practices) that when I read those words of old, I was reminded of God’s Holiness. It’s good to be reminded of who God is. This world we live in…

Send me your light and your faithful care, let them lead me; let them bring me to your holy mountain, to the place where you dwell. Psalm 43:3. Have you ever stopped to give thanks to God that He is here? That He has revealed His love to you? That His love is leading you…
