His Grace, My Journey

New Year’s Eve - When the Light Breaks Through We are on the cusp of a New Year.  This photograph was taken today from our deck.  It truly captures what it is like when God’s light breaks through the fog\darkness in our lives.  My prayer is that His light breaks through in each of your lives in the just the ways “you need” throughout this New Year 2025.  It can be a journey of faith.  Hold on tight to His Righteous Right Hand, no matter what you are facing.  His presence will bring a peace that nothing in this world can offer.  I can honestly say this, as I have experienced it in so many profound ways throughout my life.  “Reflect” was my word from God this year…  and my verse was Psalm 46:10:  “Be still and know that I am God.”  It’s taken me on a deep journey of the awareness of the Presence of His Divine Love throughout my life.  To sum it up ever so briefly:  God truly is faithful no matter what.  You are His chos...
