    • Today

      I hear the Lord say: Let today be today. Let your mind focus on today. Guard your thoughts so that you can enjoy today. Start your day with moments of appreciation. Enjoy the birdsong out your window. Marvel at the beauty of the sunrise. Prepare your mind for a day of joy and peace. Ponder…

    • Change

      I hear the Lord say: Many look to the Bible as a prescription for social reform. My Word is not a set of ‘do’s’ and ‘don’ts’. My Word is a light into the heart of humankind, to expose sin, to invite repentance and to offer forgiveness and grace. At this turning point, then the hearts…

      I hear the Lord say: Listen, precious one. I offer a day by day ‘joining’ with me. Joined in spirit as you abide in me.  Joined in purpose as I reveal myself to you and my plans to you. Joined as a branch attached to my vine, receiving life giving sap through your veins, renewing…
