May you find a way in every day, to share your great-fullness for all that touches your eyes.

Like the apostle Thomas, we all have experiences in life that leave us doubting God, God’s promises or God’s goodness. It’s a human situation with which each of us can relate.

The coming of the Lord is not a one-time event. There are interim comings scattered throughout the life of the believer. We have to be ready to welcome Jesus whenever he comes.

Like sturdy trees that bend with the breeze, wisdom-inspired living offers a deeper mooring for our being and our doing, which allows for movement even as we are deeply rooted.

None of us can represent Christ by ourselves. We need each other. We depend on one another. Each of us is a gift to our fellow believers.

The scope of every life is indeed defined by the questions we choose to live into, and if we are blessed to live long enough, we will inevitably end up shaped like a question mark
