Strength for Today
Have you sensed an overflowing joy from our risen, powerful Lord this week? I have. We’ve had our share of “too busy,” various mishaps, and house renovation debacles over the past seven days. Yet God has graciously given my heart a palpable awareness of His presence and goodness. . .
Love and Justice.
I’ve been thinking, waiting, and praying. Mowing the grass, picking up sticks, and starting a small campfire this evening was good for that sort of thing.
Today’s momentous ruling from a Minnesota courtroom is exploding across all news outlets. As most of you heard, Derek Chauvin, former police officer, was found guilty of all three charges in murdering George Floyd. . . .
Something Sweeter!
Like most children, our kiddos love stuffing their mouths with Easter candy. They gleefully dive into chocolate bunnies, jelly beans, Peeps, and more. Of course, we have to put a limit on the delightful confections, otherwise we’ll be racking up bills at the dental office. Even though we love our dentist, twice a year is enough!
But God’s Word reminds us . . .
You Are Loved.
Nothing compares to the sweetness of God’s loving presence. In this age, as we await Christ’s return, we experience God’s presence directly and powerfully through His people. Yes, through you!
