Isaiah saw the Lord sitting on a lofty throne and the train of His robe … Continue reading Called by Love →

They will not hunger or thirst, nor will the scorching heat or sun strike them. For He who has compassion on them will guide them and lead them beside springs of water. Isaiah 49:10 NIV As we spend longer in this wilderness season, I have more and more time to reflect on wilderness and what … Continue reading A Refiner’s Wilderness →

A furious squall came up, and the waves broke over the boat, so that it was nearly swamped.  Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion. The disciples woke him and said to him, “Teacher, don’t you care if we drown?” He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Quiet! Be still!” Then … Continue reading Quiet, Be Still →

We did a couple false takes, then … Continue reading Distracted by God →
