Purpose

We suffer instability but our faith and trust of God provide stability in mind and heart. After all this is God’s world and our hope is in His will and purpose…

The Word is I Love You

The world is so much with us. Life is lived completely encased in the tangible, the visible until we tend to think this  is all there is. Values are measured by the measurable evidence. Problem is this is deceptive. This shallow thinking eventually leaves us forsaken and empty. My ways are not your ways says God. My purpose for your life is  bigger and better than the purposes of the world around you. Turn your heart, mind, prayers to the One who has the first and last Word….and the Word is I Love you and I am making you new.  You really can trust this Word.

Walk in Light

Today offers the invitation to walk in light and not darkness, in truth not lie, in hope not despair, in forgiveness not hate…….

LABOR

LABOR---a gift, opportunity to exercise ability, to be self-reliant. A day to give thanks for a job and to offer a prayer for those who do not have a job. A time to hold ourselves and our government accountable to everyone having opportunity to work.

Charlie Brown

“Which way is your deck chair facing?—I’ve never been able to get one unfolded.” –Charlie Brown- sometimes this is the way it feels in daily life. Helps to have a sense of humor.

Transcendent Faith

“All faith is transcendent. It  is independent of the conditions in which it has to live.? –Percy C. Ainsworth- faith provides us a free space in which to stand, pause, listen, vision, wait. Faith provides us a place in which to deal with life now…without demanding guarantees….

back after a long trip to Idaho

“….if we do not begin in the truth, the journey is bound to have a poor ending. But the Spirit remains with us to teach us and transform us into the truth of a new creation.”(Weavings).  We cannot make the journey without mistakes, but Spirit/Grace/Redemption ever works to give us fresh starts, teach us the truth way of wisdom and good judgment.
