Hush!

 ...Jesus rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, "Peace!  Be Still!...

-Mark 4:39

Changing Views

 "....Let us take a three-day journey into the wilderness to offer sacrifices to the LORD our God..." - Exodus 3:18

This was the view out my hospital room, the second morning I'd been there.  The first night into the morning hours was spent in a windowless emergency room.  This was definitely an improvement, and oddly enough, I felt as though I was on a vacation!  We've hardly gone anywhere since the Pandemic started and not at all anywhere overnight since last October.  Having a new view out my window when I woke up that morning was a welcomed change, though I would have much preferred watching the sun rise over some lovely ocean view.  

Where The Kingdom of God Can Be Found

🎶You Are My All in All🎶

"The time has come," [Jesus] said.  "The kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the Good News."  --Mark 1:15

"Jesus built a bridge from the dregs of Earth to the heart of God, and beckons us to cross it with him.  Christ's kingdom was not of this world."  --Alan Cohen

From Forgiveness to New Life

 

During this Easter weekend I wanted to share three posts from 2012, my first year of blogging:

Forgiveness

Guarding the Tomb

This is a depiction of the soldiers guarding Jesus' tomb taken from the children's Bible my parents gave to me when I was three:

Resurrection

May God's abundant blessings be awakened in you today! 💗

Breath of Life

"....[Jesus] breathed on them and said, 'Receive the Holy Spirit.'"  --John 20:22

"I am seeing more and more that we begin to learn what it is to walk by faith when we learn to spread out all that is against us -- all our physical weakness, loss of mental power, spiritual inability, all that is against us inwardly and outwardly -- as sails to the wind and expect them to be vehicles for the power of Christ to rest upon us.  It is so simple and self-evident, but so long in the learning."  Lilias Trotter, 22 August 1902

The Saga of the Mouse

 "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible." 

-Matthew 19:26

"But now, O LORD, You are our Father; we are the clay, and You are the potter; we are all the work of your hand."  -Isaiah 64:8
