Discipline of Prayer: Always Connected
A daily train ride supplies insight into the nature of prayer: the power is always present if we are willing to stay connected. This awareness of God's omnipresence is the grand thing David celebrates. Jesus reminds us of it as His parting gift before ascending to the Father.

Strangers In This World
Christians all over the world will all be tempted in different ways. One problem we all will face is being tempted to conform to the world. Daily demands will distract us and only the ones who focus entirely on God will succeed in being different in this world.

Connect with Spirit
Every time I have the desire to do something, to create something, that’s Spirit seeking expression through me. ANY time we connect with something or someone, we're also connected with Spirit (also known as God, the Universe, Higher Power, the Source). While our personal definition of Spirit is unique, when we connect with that Spirit it immediately connects us with something outside of ourselves.

Luke at 12:4

Spring Cleanup
With the end of what seemed to be a never ending winter,
we are now ready to start cleaning up around the house. We
are anxious to lighten the load and get rid of unwanted junk.
Some of it we get tired of or have outgrown. We either do
one of three things, throw the stuff out, give it away or sell it
because it still has some value.
How much easier it is for us to clean up our property than it
is to clean up our inner souls? When we get rid of this junk,
we are that much richer for it. Sometimes we can't put a
price on things that really matter.
What is your freedom worth to you?
