    • Future

      I hear the Lord say: You ponder the future: the immediate and the long term. It is helpful to be aware of the passing of time and to make decisions for health, home and family. But realize that many of life’s circumstances will take you by surprise. But they don’t take Me by surprise. I…

    • Seasons

      I hear the Lord say: You live in an area that enjoys four seasons. As you approach the Fall season, you reflect on the cooler temperatures and fall colors that will be on display.

    • Calling

      I hear the Lord say: I am calling. Do you hear Me? Is the din and bustle of life distracting you from hearing Me? Let your guard down, let your burdens drop, let your mind take a break from the ‘to-do’ list. I am calling. I wish to spend time with you, encourage you, strengthen…
