Where Love And Hatred Meet

Good morning... She also loved the same profound sentence from yesterday's post, The Mathematics of Love. "Your love has a math that compounds according to the mystical science of the cross." Opening wide the blessing, she read aloud to me a poem about God's compounding love. Now it's our turn to embody these words, to read slowly and [...]

The Moon Is Always Round

Good morning... "Hi Sue," she wrote yesterday, "I received this devotional sometime early in the pandemic and have saved it. It reminds me of your post this morning, Trusting Without Seeing." ****** Excerpt from The Moon Is Round by Sylvia Gunter  In times of crisis trust is a powerful weapon. I define trust as assured reliance on the character, [...]

Trusting Without Seeing

Good morning... In the midst of my deep prayer time, the Spirit invites me to step outside, onto our back porch. Serenaded by cicadas, I snap a picture of the full moon hiding behind layers of lush tree limbs. Strangely, the tone of light in the dark of this night makes the setting feel surreal. Weird. Unusual. Kinda [...]

We Are Audrey’s Angels

Good morning... "Sue, you might want to check the list of people on your blog," Jennifer DeShetler texted after yesterday's heartbreaking post, Audrey Relapsed Again. "There have to be real angels of God reading. Dr. Kushner called Ben this morning." "Wow," I replied. "I have chills, Jennifer. God is at work in ways we cannot see or understand. [...]

Be Filled Up.

Good morning... A soul friend texted me last week: "I am still sitting and praying about how to move forward with our vision….I read this today and thought of you and thought of our beautiful time together in the mountains….love you so…..and more soon!" ****** God’s Word Through Divina, 8th July 1970 Can you really come into the [...]

“I Will Pray For You.”

Good morning... "When we say to people, 'I will pray for you,' we make a very important commitment," observes Henri Nouwen on page 86 of The Way of the Heart. "The sad thing is that this remark often remains nothing but a well-meant expression of concern. But when we learn to descend with our mind into our heart, [...]

I Am Where I Need To Be

Good morning... For the first time, I notice something that has likely been there all along. At the end of my friend's email, below her name, title, and business, rests a short quote by Mary Mrozowski. "I am where I need to be. Everything around me includes and hides the sacred." How freeing it would be to live [...]

He Is Here

Good morning... "As I let our little dog outside in the middle of this cold, dark night..." began our windchime blog post from yesterday. "I was feeding my adopted cat this morning..." later came her witty reply, an email entitled He Is Here. "I was walking back in the house to wash my hands. Happened to look down [...]

Cheap Acts Of Love

Good morning... 89 cents. 89 cents. 89 cents. Plus my 25% Tuesday discount at Goodwill, since I am happily over fifty-five. I spent a whopping $2.00 on a threesome of aromatherapy candles, each with a uniquely delicious scent. One for the morning. One for the daytime. One for the nite nite. I did not know what would happen [...]

This Windy Winter Solstice

Good morning... "The winter solstice, also called the hibernal solstice, occurs when either of Earth's poles reaches its maximum tilt away from the Sun," explains Wikipedia. "The winter solstice is the day with the shortest period of daylight and longest night of the year." Sitting outside on this dark, windy night, I hear my computer "ding," signaling the [...]
