I’m still celebrating the month of love and specifically the Lover of our soul! I’ll let you in on a little secret. Do you want to know what will change your life? And I mean change every aspect of your life? Deep-seated, lasting change?
We haven’t worshiped together in a while. Prayer and worship are my favorite ways to spend time with the Lord. I especially love worship music because so much scripture is included in the lyrics. I learn and retain best through music, so worship music helps me learn the word of God. The song I’m in love with lately is “Confident” by Steffany Gretzinger.
As we turn the page on the collective chapter in our lives and enter what we can term Chapter 2021 of life, I’m encouraged to know that, while we will all be in this chapter together, God sees us as the individuals He created us to be. He is writing a specific story with each of us according to how He has woven our inner parts together in the secret place, creating us in His image with His own hands.

I recently entertained myself by reflecting on how much life is like a board game. Several months before my father’s cancer diagnosis and final passing, my sister and I were able to play one of his board games with him. Dad explained the rules upfront, but then he would remember new things to tell us once we actually began playing the game.
I’ve only conducted seven podcast episodes to date, and yet I learn something new about myself with each and every one. That old saying, we’re much more alike than not … I see it reverberated over and over in these conversations.
One of my podcast guests has me looking intently at what she terms “holy moments.” She lives with bouts of paralyzing pain. Torrential storms of physical agony that can sometimes cause her to consider ending it all. These physical storms of torment do as they please tossing her to and fro in the intense waves.
Money makes the world go around. Story makes the world go around, and relationship makes the world go around. But relationship creates story, and it makes money worth the pursuit. How then can we increase our connections for a deeper relationship?
