Love and Justice.
I’ve been thinking, waiting, and praying. Mowing the grass, picking up sticks, and starting a small campfire this evening was good for that sort of thing.

Of course, we have to put a limit on the delightful confections, otherwise we’ll be racking up bills at the dental office. Even though we love our dentist, twice a year is enough!
But God’s Word reminds us . . .
You Are Loved.
Nothing compares to the sweetness of God’s loving presence. In this age, as we await Christ’s return, we experience God’s presence directly and powerfully through His people. Yes, through you!

Disappearing Lines and Broken Dreams
Would two lines appear?
I sat and waited.
Years scrolled by. Trash cans filled with negatives. . .
