Sit. Look. See.

Good morning... "As I sit doing my quiet time I look to the door and this is what I see ❤️🙏😇," she texted. As we see God in the quiet, might we begin to notice God in life's noise? God, the great God, the Lord, is speaking. He is calling everybody on the earth, from where the sun [...]

Good morning... If we are to go where we are destined to go, we need to harness the power of the One and Only dependable stream of wind. There are other competing winds wreaking havoc in our world. In recent days, I have pondered this wise advice: "Keep your sail out of that wind." I think of the [...]

The tall trees are creaking, swaying, aching in the gusty breeze. Wow. What a wild, windy Ash Wednesday! The power of our living God is completely undeniable. Today is the start of [...]

Learn Something New

Good morning... After our post Pause. Breathe. Expand., a longtime friend texted: "I saw this last night and thought it coincided with your post this morning.

Burying Her Son

Good morning... Today, my friend will bury her son. Dying an untimely death at age 23, Josh was her only child, the love of her life.
