The light is changing, days are shorter, night comes early. I watch as the season changes, trees lose leaves, air cools, satsumas ripen.
Change happens. God is there.
Through centering prayer, I learned that God is not without. God’s abiding spirit is within, in my very core, a bright sparkle of light, saying, “You are enough.”
God is as near as breath.
“The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped.” (Psalm 28:7)
My heart sings for joy.
My hands are strong that hold God’s love in prayer.
On Facebook, I watch videos of people doing amazing things; a four year old plays master piano, a baby is born, a boy receives a heart.
Even when I do something small and inconsequential, God is there.
God’s strength holds every day, every moment, from hope in a hopeless world to love for a hurting heart. I can depend on God when the day turns dark, when the leaves fall, when the earth turns.
