Prayer Journey — Trust

You have been placed here at this time, this moment in history. You are uniquely qualified for God’s plan for your life.

Prayer Journey — On Your Side

What does it mean to walk with you dear God, to walk side by side on the path of life? To walk the cool path in the woods in the early morning light, showing me the trees and the leaves shimmering in the breeze; walking along a beach in the dark of night, directing my […]

Prayer Journey – Pure as Snow

You are as pure as the new fallen snow. Next to you, I am but a gray shadow against the snow; a stain that discolors your purity.

Prayer Journey — Infinite Love

Thank you dear God that you did not just create me, but that you continue to shape me and mold me to your ways.

Prayer Journey — Advent Hope

Where do I place my hope dear Lord? Do I expectantly anticipate the day when I can see you face to face? Am I like the Magi who traveled a great distance based on your sign, your prophesy? Do I have the same hope as they did? Their hope was fulfilled, made real when they […]
