Can you believe June is here? We’re coming out of the hectic school year and month of May and entering into the summertime, a season when many people look forward to longer days and a lighter pace. Today I want to share with you an entry from my Sitting at His Feet devotional. The writings […]
In the Wilderness
This morning I want to share with you today’s entry from my Drawing Near to God 365-day devotional. This entry is about the times when we wander into the “wilderness” of complaining, self-pity or feeling separated from God. But God never forsakes us!

Acknowledging God’s Greatness
Lord, let your ear be attentive to the prayer of this your servant and to the prayer of your servants who delight in revering your name.

Good morning, Making Space for God friends! I love Monday mornings when we connect together to find space in our lives for God. Today I want us to look at our need for direction. Everyone needs direction. If we don’t have direction in our lives we run aground. We can’t get where we are going […]

Buried in Stress
Friends, since this blog is about making space for God I am going to be very frank with you. More and more Christians seem to be stressed out, overcommitted, having little time for breaks in the day. Ruth Haley Barton describes this indicating that we are not able to be present in the moment because […]
No Weapon Forged Will Prosper

Life would take on a different perspective if we knew that there was a big sign that came up over our lives anytime a false accusation is made that said: Sting ineffective. Well I have good news for you. This is […]
Forgive Them Anyway
This week I drove by a sign in front of someone’s office. It caused me to stop and think. Are people often unreasonable irrational and self-centered? Perhaps so. So that brings up another question: Should we really forgive unreasonable irrational people? The world in which we live is very different than the world in which […]
