Born From A Bumpersticker

Good morning... When I drive solo I drive in silence. No radio. No podcasts. No books on tape. I look around. I think my thoughts. I take in beauty, town to town. I notice. I wonder. I process life. While driving through the colorful hills of North Carolina this weekend, a bumpersticker smiled at me, "Life is good." [...]

Our Three Jugs

Good morning... Morning by morning, I begin empty, open, thirsty. In each day's first hours, I silently pray, "LORD, please fill me up with Your endless love." I envision my mind, my heart, and my soul as three empty jugs. One vessel (my mind) collects timeless truths from the Creator, the Father, the Almighty, the Maker of all. [...]

Less Sue, More Spirit

Good morning... At home in my skin. This is how I feel when I am with Kitty Crenshaw, co-author of my favorite book The Hidden Life Awakened. "Wait right there," Kitty said Friday before disappearing through the sliding glass door into her condo, soon returning to the back porch with her phone. "I have to take your picture. [...]

Savor Sabbath: With God

Good morning... This Sabbath morn, join me as I read quietly aloud the Message translation of Psalm 23. God, my shepherd!     I don’t need a thing. You have bedded me down in lush meadows,     you find me quiet pools to drink from. True to your word,     you let me catch my breath     and send me in the right [...]

Morph Into More

Good morning... Within a few short hours, yesterday's morning message morphed into more. Witnessing the Spirit expanding among us, touch base with God's organic growth in our past post, In Our In-Between. Listen to me now. Give me your closest attention. Do farmers plow and plow and do nothing but plow? Or harrow and harrow and do nothing [...]

In Our In-Between

Good morning... After watching the captivating video in yesterday's post, many of you responded, "Surprisingly, I was moved to tears." God lives in our in-between spaces. Between stirring a bit and being fully awake. Between standing far off and accepting a hug. Between ending this thing and beginning what's next. Between noticing beauty and being filled with gratitude. [...]

Not-So-Subtle Signs

Good morning... The chapel was nearly full on Sunday night for our Crucial Conversation on MENTAL HEALTH. After two wise therapists shared their compassionate insights, the evening ended with a video of not-so-subtle signs filmed in Italy. Please, please, please give yourself the gift of watching God's love spread through this crowd of ordinary people. Everyone was trying [...]

God Makes Love

Good morning... "Hi Sue," from her home in Vancouver, Washington she wrote me after Saturday's blog, Sow This Love Song. "I loved today’s post. A phrase in the song you posted reminded me of my favorite line in “The End” on the Beatles’ Abbey Road album. Link is here: https://youtu.be/5tvSvjpcBuo Asking if I might share the short link [...]

Sow This Love Song

Good morning... "I have been fascinated with your posts about the many tables in our lives," she wrote. "So many come to mind! Display table. Side table. Thanksgiving table. The list goes on and on." She continued: "My daughter, living in Charleston, communicates with me in many different ways as she navigates a new city and her entry [...]

Helping Hope Happen

Good morning... Yesterday I sat at two very different tables. Invited to sit at my dear friend's table, in the morning I attended the uplifting, inspiring Action Ministries breakfast at the Cobb Energy Center. "What starts as a meal, becomes a conversation," I copied in my journal the words of a spirited speaker. "Out of that conversation grows [...]
