God’s Wildest Dream

my journey seeking the heart of God

The Christmas Yes

The Christmas Yes

Blessed is she who has believed that what the Lord has said to her will be accomplished. Luke 1:45 —— Jesus keeps quietly, gently inviting me to follow Him into places I’ve never been. Places with people. Creative environments with artists. Even into unfamiliar...

Healed as You Go

Healed as You Go

Some time ago, when I was whining about my character defects and failures, I heard Jesus say, “You’ll be healed as you go,” and I realized He didn’t want me to seek Him for solutions to fix my flaws. He wanted me to follow Him. To intently look for Him in each day. To...

Surrender

Surrender

Sometime ago I heard a pastor say, “Faith isn’t the product of striving it’s the result of surrender.” I’ve been learning to surrender. To stop striving to believe what He says is true. To surrender all my fears and doubt and to sit with Him hopeful, like a child,...

God’s Story of You

God’s Story of You

I believe God’s beauty fills the earth. I believe God’s beauty fills you. His fingerprint has made you unique. No one, anywhere, is like you. No one brings to earth what you do. No one brings to life what you can. God loves variety. Thousands of species of flowers all...

Sleeping in the Storm

Sleeping in the Storm

You and I are why there is creation. Why there are blue skies, ocean waves, dolphins, and giraffes. We are the reason God put His story in every living thing and in the stars and sky. You and I, formed from the elements of earth by God’s hands and brought alive by the...

Lost Correspondence: A Glorious Invitation

Lost Correspondence: A Glorious Invitation

God sent me a Grand Invitation. It was to a banquet in my honor. To a table He set with beauty from His pure heart of love, thinking of me. He was excited as He sent out the invitation. Excited that I would come and we could sit feasting together talking of everything...

Choosing Hope

Choosing Hope

There have always been only two stories: the one that God speaks and the one that darkness tells. Each day I get to choose which one I will focus on. Which one I will believe and live by. God’s story is harder to hear. I have to lean in to know what He’s saying. I...

Default Position of Heart

Default Position of Heart

  A preselected option adopted when no alternative is specified by the user.   This morning the Lord spoke to me about my default position in a crisis. He let me know that what I choose is very, very important. God is the only God who, when I look into His...

The Mystery of You

The Mystery of You

This mystery of you and I is a quest to find and unravel clues of our uniqueness. To discover God in the evidence of His intention--in nature, in creation, in us. Our God is a spiritual being and so are we, but we don’t always see how to navigate the land of spiritual...

The Two Great Lies

The Two Great Lies

Who are we? According to Darwin's theory of evolution, we are not created in God’s image. We are the same as the animals. And yet the bible teaches we are made up of earth and of God. All things and creatures that He created He spoke into being with His voice except...

God’s Wildest Dream

God’s Wildest Dream

You are God’s Wildest dream. You probably didn't know that. I know I didn't. No one ever told me. Maybe they didn't know either. I have ached most of my life with an underlying sense of my own lack. A self-hatred even. Knowing I was not good enough but fighting for a...

The Random Dangerous People

The Random Dangerous People

I have often thought I should wear a button that says, “Does not play well with others,” just to warn people there’s a cranky introvert coming their way. It’s not that I don’t want to play well, it’s just that I don’t see how to and when I do, it feels a bit like...
