A reminder that when the storm feels like our whole world, God is with us.

An image of God reattaching flight feathers to a bird who has been wounded, damaged, and limited. A picture of God restoring hope, freedom, and new potential. Also a picture of reattaching individual feathers to a body. We can fly farther when we are connected together.

A huge tree, with an invitation to climb higher and gain a bigger perspective. This tree is tall because of the years it first took getting rooted and going deep.

In gardening, pinching off the first flowers is a technique used to encourage plants to grow stronger and broader. Although the first visible fruit is halted, once the plant does bear flowers and fruit again, it will be a more plentiful and rich crop.

A pearl starts when an irritant gets in a oyster, causing pain. But what could have been harmed and damaged the shell, doesn't. Because the oyster coats the irritant with layer and layer of shell material, creating a pearl. We have the choice of how we let hard things in life affect us. They can damage us, or we can transform them into beauty and great worth.

Taking a leap of faith is less about calculating your moves, and more about trusting the jumper. He will land you safe.

A landscape picture that portrays the concept of the kingdom of God being here, and yet not yet here. Living in between the times.

Choosing to let go of the weights that prevent you from being on the journey.

A reflection on the power of words to break apart the darkness and usher in light.
