    • I am with you

      I hear the Lord say: I am with you. I am with you today and tomorrow. I am with you in the storm. I am with you in the fire. I am with you in the dry places. I am with you in the pain. I am with you. I am with you in the…

    • The Plan of Salvation

      I hear the Lord say: Jesus, the Good Shepherd, the Passover Lamb, the King of Kings, the Prince of Peace. Fully human and fully divine.

      I hear the Lord say: Looking at the pond scene, you see a reflected image of trees and sky. I created this marvelous mirror lake image to remind you of how you are uniquely and wonderfully made in the image of God (Me). Your image holds the beauty and majesty of creation. All of my…
