One Week From Today

Good morning... One week from today, we will host another four-week class on the Enneagram, an ancient tool used to identify our own core need as a unique child of God. Once our deepest drive is discerned, we will learn to track our spiritual growth as God's Spirit awakens our True Self. This time I will be teaching [...]

Way Of Life

Good morning... As we gathered for communion in a small church in the woods, the pastor extended gentle words of invitation: "The will of God is the way of life, and we want to get all wrapped up in it." Jotting the sentence in my bulletin, I return to the statement now. If the will of God is [...]

Stop

Good morning... Yesterday was "Simplify, Sue." Today I sense, "Stop." "Stop." "Let go." "Try less." "Quiet down." LORD, let my words be few as I meditate upon You. Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable and pleasing in Your sight, O Lord, my [firm, immovable] rock and my Redeemer (Psalm 19:14, [...]

Savor Sabbath: You Are Like Me

Good morning... You are like me. Imperfect. Improving. Intimately to connected to God, Self, and others. As an online community, we bring our whole selves out from the isolating dark, where negatives develop, into the light of God's redeeming love. I enjoy taking time on Sundays to savor where we have been, reviewing the spiritual baby steps we [...]

My Heart Feels Bittersweet

Good morning... "It's bittersweet," my heart thinks as I quietly put away the mugs, the teas, the snack bowls that have rested regularly on our foyer table, welcoming women into our home week after week. "It is bittersweet to end another winter/spring season of learning." Yes, my schedule will breathe a little more freely and, yes, I will [...]

I Will Not Die Unlived

Good morning... "I will not die an unlived life," begins the Dawna Markova quote our friend read aloud to us in class. "I will not live in fear of falling or catching fire. I choose to inhabit my days, to allow my living to open me, to make me less afraid, more accessible; to loosen my heart until [...]

True Identity Is Discovered

Good morning... As we walk on the road God calls us to travel, we are encouraged by the verse ending yesterday's post: And mark that you do this with humility and discipline—not in fits and starts, but steadily, pouring yourselves out for each other in acts of love, alert at noticing differences and quick at mending fences (Ephesians [...]

Treasure Your Own Tulip

Good morning... As I flipped through my stack of favorite books for yesterday's post, I found my way back to two pages I love. The story of a tulip encourages us as we wait beneath the dark soil of not seeing, not knowing, not understanding exactly what God is growing in us. The beauty of spring popping in [...]

We Are Being Saved Whole

Good morning... Until we look inside ourselves, to the very marrow of our God-drenched soul, we look for love in all the wrong places. People. Political and religious leaders. Paycheck after paycheck, we search for deeper meaning. Sue Monk Kidd says it this way. ****** Excerpt from When The Heart Waits Without maps or signposts, people search for [...]

Our “I” Is Found Before Lost In “We”

Good morning... On this Valentines Day 2019, I will tell you an endless love story evolving in my life. One year at our church there was glitch in our ordering of the annual devotional books I wrote from 2006 to 2016. Our Women's Ministry would self published these babies, after hours and hours of hard, loving labor, then [...]
