4d ago1:00:41

1:00:41

God's face is always shining toward us. Our God is not asleep, nor indifferent. But we don't always experience this nearness or the depth of how beloved we truly are--especially if we have experienced neglect, betrayal, or indifference in our formative human relationships.

I’ve written and said plenty about the problem of hurry in our lives and in our world.

Sometimes, anxiety rises in my thoughts, emotions, and body as an overwhelming wave.
