MY WEBSITE IS ABOUT GOD'S LOVE
Did I offer peace today? Did I bring a smile to someone's face? Did I say words of healing? Did I let go of my anger and resentment? Did I forgive? Did I love? These are the real questions. I must trust that the little bit of love that I sow now will bear many fruits, here in this world and the life to come. -by Henri Nouwen

The Early Morning Dew
I sip from the chalice of early morning dew and delight in the surreal music of nature waking. Through hazy eyes, I witness the sunrise and applaud this masterpiece before humans blot out its calm. I stare in wonder as Creation offers this private viewing and taste of eternity. In the early morning I worship our King.
WHEN I THINK ABOUT CHRIST
-by Lois Macdonald
When I think of Christ, I think of fresh, unblemished snow, as it falls without fanfare erasing the footprints of my past. For, “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be …white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool.” (Isaiah 1:18) ESV. I watch in wonder as our Creator tosses back the drizzly blanket of winter’s decay and nurses the newborn seedlings growing beside Spring’s swollen riverbeds. Promising that, “Whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.” (John 4:14). I close my eyes and imagine the Good Shepherd, holding me so that I can hear His heart beating. For “He tends his flock like a shepherd: He gathers the lambs in his arms and carries them close to his heart...” (Isaiah 40:11) NIV. This perfect Lamb of God, who lay down his life to save yours and mine. How can I begin to thank my Redeemer? My Deliverer. “…As for me, I know that my Redeemer lives, and at the last will take His stand on the earth” (Job 19:25).
