Perfect Dad
Good morning!Yesterday I had posted a devotional I enjoy and the focus was on child-like faith. That has been something I have spent a lot of time thinking about. I would guess most of the world would call that foolish. I call it freedom.I spent a lot of time researching the Bible, what I believe and why I believe it. Having decided that my faith is grounded in solid belief, I donβt feel the nee...

I slept and dreamt that life was joy. I awoke and saw that life was service. I acted and behold, service was joy.Rabindranath Tagore
Joy
I Hear His Whisper...In childlike faith, joy is restored.What youβve been looking for is right before your eyes. You only need to become a child again. Life has left you holding a bag of unbelief.

Though youβve...

God's address
Good morning!I heard this recently and it made me smile and pause: βGodβs address is at the end of our rope!βHow often this is true for so many of us! When we come to the end of all of our own solutions and plans that may not have gone as planned, then we sometimes get this revelation that God has always been there, we just couldnβt see it until we get to the end of our rope!Thankfully, He...

βGratitude is an antidote to negative emotions, a neutralizer of envy, hostility, worry, and irritation. It is savoring; it is not taking things for granted; it is present-oriented.β Sonja Lyubomirsky

There is something unique about the life of a believer. Something dynamic and mystifying yet often misunderstood. It is the way we find freedom, by committing our lives to the Lord. It seems like an oxymoronβthis lifestyle of surrender that actually bestows true indulgence upon us because it leads to the joy and peace only he can give.Yielding to the Lord, surrendering all that we are, have been...
