Years ago, I had a dream that I was seated at a huge table. The table was so huge that I couldn’t tell where the table began or where it ended.

Brand New Mercies
The steadfast love of the LORD never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. Lamentations 3:22-23 This morning, I woke up with Lamentations 3:22-23 on my heart.

You Are
From light breaking through the darkness of night, To the wind that gently breezes and guides a child’s kite. From the heartbeat at conception as a sign of new life, To milk in the breast of a mother whose infant holds tight. From every inhale and exhale as a our lungs breath in and out,Continue reading “You Are”
