“Prayer for the Day Lord, distractions of every kind overwhelm us. Busyness. Stress. Fear. Worry. Comparing ourselves to others. When we try and quiet our minds, so much floods our consciousness that focusing on you and your will and your ways feels impossible. Send your Spirit, the Comforter, to quell the noise within and without so that we might know what oil we need to keep our lamps burning brightly with the light of Jesus Christ. Amen.”
― Jill J. Duffield, Lent in Plain Sight: A Devotion through Ten Objects

“How much farther?” “The distance doesn’t matter. Just think about your next step.”
― Mark T. Sullivan, Beneath a Scarlet Sky

“Our part is to follow Jesus. He knows what He’s doing with you. No one’s loved more than you. No one’s a bigger priority than you. No one else is so high on His list of favorites that your contribution to the body of Christ is drowned out or diminished.”
― Beth Moore, Chasing Vines: Finding Your Way to an Immensely Fruitful Life

“Just take the next step. I’ll show you what to do from there.” During so much of this walk with God, we feel blindfolded. Certain seasons are pocked with such random events that we decide all is helter-skelter. Other seasons seem so illustriously orchestrated that the ties between events are like streamers of spun gold. From the very beginning, God geared the faith walk to be relational, not informational. The latter was always intended for the sake of the former.”
