Come Just As You Are

Good morning, Making Space for God friends! Last week as I was preparing to meet some friends for dinner, I looked in the mirror and thought, “Boy, do I look terrible.” I even entertained the idea of not going because facing the redo that was needed was daunting. It was the end of the day […]

Making Space for God in the New Year

Happy New Year, Making Space for God friends! Have any of you decided to set goals for the New Year? Mine are to be more intentional, strategic, simplify and minimize. Please join me as we make space for God in the New Year to study Paul’s letter to the Ephesians and together we will make […]

God’s Divine Interruptions

Good morning, Making Space for God friends. One week until Christmas- the time we celebrate the birth of Christ. It seems I have to fight to remember the reason for the season as I make my way through lists of shopping, baking, and the like. I think Santa Claus is a cute enough fellow, but […]
