Discovering the Mystery of Who I Am in Christ
Sometimes pain can come on in an unexpected moment, such as when you step barefoot onto a sharp object, or when you suddenly lose a loved one. Other times, the pain is a deep ache of an old injury that resurfaces with a change in weather - or when your past emotional pain is triggered …
Poured out. Tired. Worried. Worn down? Yes? Emptied. Do these describe you? For those who are in the Lord's work, at the end of the day you should be emptied. Perhaps, even at the end of the morning you should be empty. Maybe- just maybe- if you don't conserve, don't hold back, but pour out …

During today's prayer time, we are going to press in for those who are wounded on the spiritual battle field. The Lord is leading to uphold those who are in pain, doubt and are running away. We are going to intercede for those who will spiritually bleed to death, if we don't intercede. This is …

All this time at home has me thinking. For years, I have been looking for the words to speak on and/or write about the conundrum facing the church in our times. My soul has felt unsettled for years, perhaps even a little disturbed, concerning what I can only describe as bad "weather" approaching. The Pharisees …

Does this picture of me look like I am alone in the dark? Does it look like I'm having a bad day? Honestly, this picture was taken on a really terrible weekend, when I underwent an intense spiritual and physical attack. It was the third weekend of February. I spent the weekend in the hospital …
