Active Waiting
With Thanksgiving & the month of November behind us, we now step into December & the season referred to as Advent, which means “new beginning”, which is something we all need right now.
Peace on Earth
May these words from a hymn and prayer be spiritually feeding to you in this period of Advent.
Abiding in Gratitude: Part 1
It sometimes just seems easier to complain, worry, & focus on what is going wrong than it is to celebrate God’s presence in our lives & to live reflecting a spirit of gratitude & joy, don’t you think?
Abiding in Gratitude: Part 2
How can we bridge the gap between the beauty & suffering of life & abide in a spirit of gratitude & joyful praise?
Seeking the Peace that Passes All Understanding: Part 1
We should not be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.
Seeking the Peace that Passes All Understanding: Part 2
The peace of God is grounded in God’s unconditional Agape love for all of creation. It is different than worldly peace that temporarily may calm the waters of conflict when people resolve differences from time to time & that comes & goes depending on the particular situation.
The Heart of Peace Making: Part 1
God offers us a path where we are led by the Holy Spirit versus an earthly path informed by the opinions & actions of the conflicted world.
The Heart of Peace Making: Part 2
It is quite obvious that the world is in dire need of peacemakers at this time, people who have the inner peace of God in their heart & whose peace informs their living, reflecting the character of God
Bathed in God’s Grace: Part 1
Grace is the manifestation of God’s steadfast love. It is through God’s Grace, freely given & bestowed upon us by our Creator that we come to know the character of God & thus the image we are created to reflect.
