I lift up my eyes to you, to you who sit enthroned in heaven. As the eyes of slaves look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a female slave look to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes look to the Lord our God, till he shows us his mercy.Continue reading “Safe 🌷”

Flip flop 🌷
All this energy issues from Christ: God raised him from death and set him on a throne in deep heaven, in charge of running the universe, everything from galaxies to governments, no name and no power exempt from his rule. And not just for the time being, but forever . He is in charge ofContinue reading “Flip flop 🌷”

Forgiving myself 🌻
“Everyone says forgiveness is a lovely idea, until they have something to forgive,” C.S. Lewis wrote. ” I think Peter would have agreed.

Comfort-er 💐
INTIMACY – Jesus’ disciples had a very intimate relationship with Him which is why it would have been so hard to think of Him leaving. Jesus knew this, but He also knew that the same level of intimacy would be available through the Helper who was coming. The Holy Spirit is now, God with us. LiterallyContinue reading “Comfort-er 💐”
