Robin Dance: A Stranger, Spilled Coffee, and Blessings in Disguise
01/15/24 • 7 min

"Often, blessing others simply requires prayer and intention. When you encounter someone whose delight is in the Lord, you know it. You’re drawn to their light like a moth to a flame. It’s not just because there’s something particularly wonderful about that person; it’s because you’re drawn to the Holy Spirit working in and through them.
The allure of an unbridled Holy Spirit in you is magnetic... undeniable... inescapable. Way too often I get in the way, talking myself out of whatever that divine prompting is nudging me to do. Do you know what I mean? So, what can we do to be bolder in our faith, bring glory to God, and bless those around us in the process?"

Simi John: We Need More Salt
"Let’s refuse to be salty, and choose instead to be the salt of the earth. Jesus came to invade our hearts and minds with the Truth and transform the world with the Good News. Jesus came to change everything. Just as the Father sent Jesus into the world, so Jesus sends us (John 17:18 NIV).
But many of us are like me with cooking -- overly cautious about putting salt into the pot, afraid of what might happen. So we just gather together with our Christian t-shirts instead of actually going into the world and bringing Jesus to those who need Him. Instead of being Jesus's world-changing salt, we have simply become salty -- angry, defensive, irritated, and overly sensitive. Too much salt in one dish is not desirable and will only leave a bad taste in someone’s mouth."

Jess Hall: Be Still . . . And Trust He Is There
"He was there. Even there. Always there. Listen...God is calling us.
Keep listening, for He is singing in the coldness of our discomfort. In the hardness of our struggles.
He is calling us to find Him.
He is calling us to love Him."
