Welcome

I hope you find these visits with Jesus to be inviting as well as inspiring and life-changing.
And may these prayers help you to see that God is closer than you ever imagined…
Acts 17:27
Mesmerized
He answered, “‘Love the Lord your God
with all your heart and with all your soul
and with all your strength and with all your mind’; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’”
Luke 10:27 (NIV)

Lord, I was walking in the city today and got pulled into a stream of people. All beautiful folk and made in Your image. And yet almost no one noticed because they were not looking at each other. They were instead consumed by technology.
Lord, when did we stop gazing at each other? When did we stop looking up? Are we so mesmerized by modern engineering curiosities that we miss Your true marvels? And forgetting to love You and Your image bearers?
I am guilty of this, Lord. Help me to love Your people more than the tools they create. Amen.
Questions for Pondering…
How is it that the things I never lived with before have now become things I cannot live without?
What are some ways I can simplify my life, enjoy the delights of humanity again, and give God the first fruits of my time?
