Good morning... Today we are crossing the finish line of the marathon we began in 2019. Our planning for the Awake To Wholeness Women's Retreat scheduled for March 28th, 2020 ended as COVID forced us instead to shelter in place. Our rescheduled retreat day is today. Please join us in any way the Spirit might lead. ****** Awaken [...]
Good morning... "Hi Sue," she emailed me this week. "We are visiting Eastern Europe and were in Vukovar Croatia 🇭🇷 yesterday. There was a terrible civil battle there between the Croats and the Serbs in 1991 when Yugoslavia broke up. This Christ figure survived though the Serbian Orthodox Church of St Phillip and Jacob, where it had been, [...]
Good morning... "Please stay with me on Monday," she texted our friend group from Sloan Kettering in New York City where their teenaged daughter will undergo surgery to remove her recurring cancer. "It will be a long 10 hours." Spirit to Spirit, from Atlanta to Idaho to NYC, the texts of our five friends came delightfully close. Love. [...]
Good morning... God's healing power is exchanged by touch; Jesus knew this fact full well. The entire crowd eagerly tried to come near Jesus, to touch him to receive healing, because a tangible, supernatural power emanated from him and healed all who came close to him (Luke 6:19, TPT). Tender touch is powerfully transformative. With Jesus now in [...]
Good morning... "Good morning, Sue," she wrote recently. "I've been enjoying your posts about your dear friend Betty Skinner crossing over the veil into heaven. I'm very sorry for your loss and know that she meant so much to you. I always thought it was so cool that you journeyed to meet this woman who had such an [...]
Good morning... This fourth of July 2021, where is our freedom? In these early morning hours, three Scripture verses merge in my mind to reveal God's expanding truth. Our freedom is more than a flag bearing stars and stripes, more than hot dogs and hamburgers sizzling on a grill, more than fireworks lighting up the pitch black sky. [...]
Good morning... As I prayerfully consider the story of Ginny Owens, this beautiful singer/song writer who lost her sight at age three, I can't help but wonder, "God, why would you allow an innocent child to go completely blind?" I'm not the only one who has struggled with this question. In John 9:1-7 (TPT) we meet the disciples [...]
Good morning... "I have been out of touch but reading and connecting with you most mornings," she wrote. "I am so heartbroken and encouraged by the beautiful and tragic story of Eliza." "When I saw the title of your message I'll Walk Through The Valley," she continued, "I thought to myself, 'I haven’t heard that song in a [...]
Good morning... "Thank you for posting the music video of I'll Walk Through the Valley," my friend wrote after yesterday's blog post. "It's so hard to watch Ginny Owens sing this song, but so healing too. This song got Eliza through so many dark days - along with Psalm 23." As we step forward into this new day, [...]
Good morning... "I love love love this photo and the joy and peace it pours into the dreams gestating in our hearts," I texted the artist, my dear friend Corinne Adams. "I am spending the morning meandering through Julie Harlan's prayer journals, discerning in more detail the root system beneath Julie's Dream." "It's a dream scape, indeed," Corinne [...]
