Steward relationships

on 10 February 202624 March 2026 Leave a Comment on Steward relationships

“Take heart, I have overcome the world. Even in trouble, victory is already Mine.” February’s word to walk in is based on John‬ ‭16‬:‭33‬ and I was led to John‬ ‭13‬:‭34‬-35 in response. It’s certainly an interesting verse pairing. “I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the …

Love came down and lit our hearts. This changes how we live in the wait. Observing the season of Advent leads us to remember what God has done, with thanksgiving, while also looking ahead, with joyful anticipation, to what He promised to do in the future. May the joy of “God With Us” fill our …

Heaven came down

on 23 December 20256 January 2026 Leave a Comment on Heaven came down

My day started off as one of those days. You know them – when the day just isn’t going how you’d prefer and you want to grumble. I would’ve preferred a solid night’s sleep, thank you very much! I would’ve preferred to not have bleary eyes when I have to do computer work. I would’ve …
