Story and the Spiritual Journey
Today’s Reflection I GREW UP in a family whose members talked in stories. My earliest memories are set on a porch swing, sitting next to my great-aunt as she tells stories and sings songs to me. Some of these stories, for example those about my great-grandfather, George Washington Cherry, were threads woven into the fabric […]
Creation
Today’s Reflection The First Creation Story Before anything that ever was there was nothing, only God breathing into the dark. It was the deepest darkness ever known before or since. The quiet was the most profound silence that ever was before or since. In all that darkness and silence, God was lonely. So God began […]
Purpose
Today’s Reflection OUR SEARCH FOR PURPOSE seems coded into the fabric of our being. We are wired to live a meaningful existence, but we can’t begin to discover what that purpose is unless we know the One who created us for a purpose. … Every search for purpose is meant to lead us to the […]
People Become What They Love
Today’s Reflection USE THE THINGS OF THIS WORLD as nature needs them, but not with excessive attachment. For it would be very displeasing to God if you were to set your heart on something of less value than yourself. . . . People become like what they love. – Keith Beasley-Topliffe Writings of Catherine of […]
Mercy
Today’s Reflection MERCY IS NOT MERELY FEELING SYMPATHY. Mercy is extended by one who has the power to condemn or punish but chooses not to. We choose not to criticize, not to say, “I told you so,” not to exact our “pound of flesh” — not to avenge. As Jesus shows us in his interaction […]

Unscripted
After walking into a sandwich shop, I sensed the Holy Spirit nudging me to reach out to the young man who took our order. Unsure of how to start, I gathered my food and followed my husband to the patio area. Shortly after we sat down, the same young man came outside to sweep the […]
Self-Awareness
God intends for us to live a well-rounded life in Christ Jesus, but there are times when that life is attacked from the outside. Then we tend to fall back into self-examination, a habit that we thought was gone. Self-awareness is the first thing that will upset the completeness of our life in God, and […]
From Grief to Joy
Kelly’s pregnancy brought complications, and doctors were concerned. During her long labor, they decided to whisk her away for a cesarean section. But despite the ordeal, Kelly quickly forgot her pain when she held her newborn son. Joy had replaced anguish. Scripture affirms this truth: “A woman giving birth to a child has pain because […]
