“Everything is working together for my good.”
The Friday Affirmation
“Everything is working together for my good.”
The Peace and Quiet of a Snow Day
It snowed a few days ago. I’m guessing 4-5 inches. That may not seem like much but for NE Oklahoma where we live now or SE Kansas where I grew up it is a lot. Everything pretty much comes to a stop. Churches and Schools close and even some businesses.
In the past. I have bundled up and walked in the snow or made a snow angel. I love snow angels!
But this year is different. The blanket of white covering us is deeper than usual. It’s quiet outside with little activity. And I am reminded that sometimes it’s okay to stay inside to rest, recharge and enjoy the peace and quiet.
Blessings to you. May you find your own little corner of peace and quiet even if the world hasn’t stopped for a snow day where you live.

Holiday Magic
“The joy of brightening other lives, bearing others burdens, easing each others loads and supplanting empty hearts and lives with generous gifts becomes for us the magic of the holidays. — W.C. Jones
Angels Among Us
Years ago I was a student sitting in a seminary classroom studying Greek. The word angelos came up, interpreted as messenger. Angel Martinez, grinning ear to ear said, “that’s me.” The professor, Dr. Moller who was usually quite serious also had a wide grin on his face.
The truth is that we can all be messengers of God’s love, grace and sometimes judgment. God does sometimes send warnings, but we must not let them overshadow the messages of love and grace.
So this holiday season, be an angel.
Christmas is Forever

Giving Light

The Wednesday Word
The word for today is centered. The Webster’s definition for this is “emotionally stable and secure.” I’d like to go bit deeper. For some, centering is when we go within and connect with the Spirit of God within us. It is where we find peace, calm and God.
