Luke 3:21 & 4:1-14

It can be risky when we are in the wilderness season. The good news is we do not need to stay stuck in the wilderness when we find ourselves there.

Luke 3:21 & 4:1-14

When we listen to the Lord in our wilderness seasons, regardless of the situation, may we each be faithful enough to always turn to our living Lord as we seek our way. 

Ephesians 6:10-17, Psalm 119:105

The “call” to be witnesses for God & to live reflecting His Light & Love for the world is both a blessing as well as a challenge for us. As long as we keep our lives focused on God our Creator & trust in His steadfast love & healing grace for all of creation, it is fairly easy to witness for God & reflect His image through our living for we are empowered by the Holy Spirit. However, at the time of this writing, I think we’d all agree that there is no doubt, that all of God’s creation is currently living in a time of extraordinary challenge which in many cases, makes it difficult for us to consistently keep our focus on our calling to reflect God’s image in which we are created.

Ephesians 6:10-17, Psalm 119:105

Given the magnitude of the negative messages & challenges of this time we are currently living through that create such seemingly hopeless darkness & destructive direction, it does seem like the question that challenges us all is: “where will we find the strength & the hope to keep going forward reflecting the Light, love & wholeness that we are called by God to reflect, spread & live into?”

Matthew 28:20, Psalm 139:1-6, 23-24

God’s Grace of healing & transcendental transformation is something we cannot understand. It arises beyond human knowledge & reason & transcends all earthly understanding, yet the gift of new eternal life is promised to us by God

Matthew 28:20, Psalm 139:1-6, 23-24

God is a God of the present. God is always in the moment, be that moment, hard or easy, joyful or painful, His is always a promise of new life.

Psalm 121 & Psalm 46

Prayer is alive with God’s love. How we receive God’s prayer & gift of unconditional love for us is our response to Him. The answer to our prayer to God is so far beyond our doing that we cannot find words to forswear it but we can live into it.

Psalm 121 & Psalm 46

Prayer given & received between God & His people, is the pathway to the healing we all long for

Isaiah 55: 6-13

The question we all need to ask ourselves in this the second month of the new year of renewal & restoration, is whether our resolutions for this coming year reflect a new season of lightness or a season of darkness, of beauty or of suffering. God’s Will for us is to live an abundant life that reflects His Will & His Light for all of His creation. We are called & guided by Him to live into His Will.

Isaiah 55: 6-13

Regardless of what New Year’s resolutions you may have made, the Holy Scriptures tell us that the Light & Glory of God will always overcome the darkness of this world. God works in ways we cannot see but if we seek Him, if we follow Him, we will find a pathway into the Light & healing & restoration will be given, & warring, & hatred & prejudice will cease. The scriptures tell us when we seek & follow the Lord that He will be found & by His Love & Grace, He will lead us out of darkness & hopelessness & into the Light of faith & hope.
