Thank you…

I appreciate you. 

These are words that most people like to hear.  They can help us to feel seen, recognized, validated.  Recently, I said this to someone and got an unexpected response.  While my words were sincere and heartfelt, they triggered a negative reaction. 

Why? 

Peace on Earth 

It’s what we all want, don’t we?  Especially at Christmas, the words are everywhere.  But what do we mean?  Does that mean we don’t want war?  What if we aren’t at war, do we still want peace? 

Ruthlessly Eliminate Hurry

You need to ruthlessly eliminate hurry from your life. Hurry is the great enemy of the spiritual life. Eliminate hurry, and you will find the rest Jesus offers.

Season of Giving

Many of us are spent: financially, physically, emotionally, spiritually.
