Let Go and Let God

I watched as she ran around the store with a look of despair.  She was simply a customer but her stress level was unmeasurable.  I wondered, as I silently prayed for her, if she ever knows peace? Does she ever let go and let God?  Do any of us?  So many times I have tried to let go and let God but I always have a plan B.  If we have a plan B are we truly trusting our father?   Why do we feel as though we always have to be in control?  Why do we always believe that things should go smoothly?  Trust…such a small word but so important.  We need to completely let go and let God.  He expects us to trust him with everything.  When we do, we will find that he has been carrying us, when we didn’t even realize it.

My wonderfully beautiful father in law passed away this week.  In the glory of getting to be with him, as he transitioned into the presence of Christ, leaving his earthly vessel behind, sadness set in but holiness prevailed.  I saw in that moment that all the rubbish we deal with somehow does not matter.  The…

Where Do You Live?

Do you live in the house of fear or the house of love?  Christ calls us to unbridled love for all those around us.  Love of not only the people that are easy but the people that are hard.   Do you have love in your heart for the terrorist you see on the news? …

Climbing The Mountain!

Do you ever have a week… or two… or five… where you wonder what went wrong?  Did the moon and stars forget to orbit? Was there a shift in the balance of nature that caused everything to go haywire?  My last two months I have felt as though satan is punching me in the head….
