faith, clarity and encouragement for confusing times
This past year has taken more out of us than we may realize. Many of us are emotionally drained, spiritually depleted and running on fumes. Pandemic fatigue is a real thing. And it is starting to take its toll, eon all of us. Yet, I can sense God has something better in mind. He wants …
Whom have I in heaven [but You]? And besides You, I desire nothing on earth. My flesh and my heart may fail, But God is the rock and strength of my heart and my portion forever. But as for me, it is good for me to draw near to God; I have made the Lord …
God, you’re such a safe and powerful place to find refuge! You’re a proven help in time of trouble—more than enough and always available whenever I need you. So we will never fear even if every structure of support were to crumble away. We will not fear even when the earth quakes and shakes, for …
Do you ever just get a song stuck in your head? I do. A lot. I remember one time when I had surgery, we went to see the Les Mis movie the day before since I was going to be recuperating for a bit. Needless to say, for the next three drug-induced days, my brain …

Friends, This word has been sitting in my spirit for a few months, and I feel like today there is an important meaning for us. God has given each of us a unique and specific purpose. That’s why we are on the planet. That’s why we are in the kingdom. Because he has a plan …

Hi friends, Well, I know it’s been a while. September was another long month and a bit of a reset for some things. But I’m really sensing that some of us are feeling we just can’t endure any longer and want all of this to just be over. In fact, you may even wish we …
