Just me trying to be honest with God.

"Anything under God’s control is never out of control." Meme

A mature inner life will possess the soul with a patient peace. This is because a well nurtured soul knows who is ultimately in control.

“Show the world and all its people all the wonders love can bring. Give us strength and understanding. Give us all one song to sing.” Lionel Richie

 I pray that love will be the governing dynamic of my journey. I want every thought; every single thought; every word; and every action to flow from, and out of love's energy. I covet the love of God expressed in Jesus, the love that blesses everyone with goodness. Here is heaven's song, a song worth singing.

“God is love. Whoever abides in love, abides in God and God abides in them.” 1Jo.4.16



"In solitude, where we are least alone." Lord Byron

Jesus often went out to quiet places away from people to pray. His example highlights the value of creating a quiet time in a quiet place, in order to talk and listen to God. I am humbled that every time I have sought God, I have found Him waiting for me. Make an appointment with Him.

“Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed.” Mk.1:35 “Conversations Within” ts 1/20/26



Use what worries you.

Anxiety can be a good reminder, if we use it this way, that we are trying to carry something that God never intended for us to carry. Put it back in His hands and leave it there,

“Cast all your care on Him because He cares for you.” 1Pet.5.7 “Conversations Within” ts 1/18/26



Pondering God love.

If I could wrap my head around the vastness of the Universe I might begin to understand just how much our Father in Heaven loves each of us. We could say that in Heaven’s dictionary next to the words "infinite love" is a picture of Christ, arms spread out on the cross, saying "This is how much I love you!"

“And I pray that you, may… grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ…that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.” Eph. 3 “Conversations Within” ts 1/17/26
