Direction: Day 4
Only two more days to wrap this up. What treasures we are uncovering! Are you excited to see what’s next? Today we have three more scriptures chock-full of enlightening information. I’m sure you know this first one well, but let’s open our hearts and look at it with new eyes. ‘For I know the plans …
Direction: Day 3
Oh my goodness! This week’s posts on direction are intense. Who knew how many scriptures would apply?

Direction: Day 2

Is My Worship More Than Just a Song?
Yesterday, we had a break from our gray skies. I decided to take advantage of the sun and go for a walk. It wasn’t a long walk, just down the street with not much to see. So I turned on my phone figuring I’d get one song in before I’d reach my house again. I …
In
Acts 17:28 (ESV) Over the past few years, I’ve been uncovering a mysterious power. It is the power of in. For such a small word it has made a big difference in how I perceive my identity. This little word is so vast that I am still learning its reach. Even this blog post will …
