Psalm 23:1 The Lord is my Shepherd There is Nothing I shall want“ Luke 17:21 “The Kingdom of God is in the midst of you.” Acts 17:28 “In Him we live, move and have our being.” While meditating on 23:1, I felt like the Lord spoke these comforting words in the deepest part of my […]
It’s not about about having a plan … it’s about learning to keep your eyes on the horizon, being alert enough to notice the Divine Spark rising like the sun over ordinary moments. It’s about looking up to the heavens and paying attention to how the Light shimmers down and casts a glorious glow over the […]
You can travel to distant galaxies and dip your toes in every ocean. You can catch all the fireflies in the universe with your bare hands and watch them rise into the distance, a marvelous display of light … You can soar through shimmering clouds into the sunrise over grand ranges of mountain majesty … […]
