The Spirit Cycle

Devotional Series, 50 Days of Transformation|

Her eyes spoke more words than her mouth did when she asked me to pray for her. After finding a lump, my sweet friend became greatly fearful of the next steps that must follow. I assured her that I would indeed bang on the doors of heaven's throne room and plead her case.

Be Still

Devotional Series, 50 Days of Transformation|

In our culture, taking time out for rest and relaxation is difficult to say the least. We are creatures of habit who schedule out our days, hours, minutes, and moments. Perhaps we over control our time in order to feel in control of our time.

Sweet Confection; Bitter Truth

Devotional Series, 50 Days of Transformation|

We stood in the seemingly never ending line and waited for our turn to place an order. Before us on display under a cool glass shield was every colour and flavour of the ice cream rainbow. After you choose your creamy base, there are an unlimited number of choices at your fingertips to create your very own one-of-a-kind sweet confection.

When the End of the Book Has Come

Devotional Series, 50 Days of Transformation|

Sitting amongst a sea of black, I listened as the pastor shared words of comfort to those who were grieving the loss of a beloved man. A great many kind words and amusing stories were shared about his life. One particular sentiment was shared many times and I mulled it over in my heart and mind. It was shared that this beloved man who had passed was a humble soul capable of great love.

Put To The Test

Devotional Series, 50 Days of Transformation|

It was simply a matter of being in the right place at the right time. I had the ability and resources to fill an immediate need that presented itself. I was no hero, but I knew that it wasn't a complete accident that I was the person there in the moment. And I was wise enough to know that it had nothing to do with me personally, just that The Lord desired me to be His vessel

A Fickle Cycle

Devotional Series, 50 Days of Transformation|

Change is never easy. And quick changes are rarely long-lasting. Rapid quick changes are usually a symptom of dissatisfaction. Dissatisfaction often an unconscious response to the truth that something is amiss within our soul. Something amiss within our soul is the missing presence of Jesus within an area of our life.

Ushering in Newness

Devotional Series, 50 Days of Transformation|

Spring is upon us. With the arrival of spring there is also the ushering in of newness. We anticipate its arrival and our souls long for its presence. We plan- often following through with these hastily made commitments- to clean out our closets, sort the massive stack of papers on the kitchen counter, and turn the earth in the garden.

Mercy in the Mess

Devotional Series, 50 Days of Transformation|

My foot began to cramp as I barrelled along the highway at a rapid clip. Moving with the flow of traffic, I kept both hands steady on the steering wheel so that I felt a deeper sense of control over the car. The rain outside the windows pelted heavily against the glass creating a flow of water and blurry film that impaired my line of vision on the road ahead.

Out To Lunch

Devotional Series, 50 Days of Transformation|

I stood off to the side of the office kitchen cleaning up the last of my mess. The tell-tale signs of the lunch hour had begun wafting its way through the cavernous room. Several men had entered through the doors and, with lunch bags and square reusable containers tucked securely in their hands, they sat themselves down at a large round table that had seen many years of wear and tear.

Trial and Error

Devotional Series, 50 Days of Transformation|

A wee bit overwhelmed, I put my hands to my forehead and took a deep breath. I was attempting to finish up a project with a business client of my husband and was down to the wire and final details, but my creative juices had run dry. I sensed a slight fear of failing in the task.

The Flood

Devotional Series, 50 Days of Transformation|

With wild eyes brimming in panic, my youngest child rushed to tell me that the button on the water cooler got stuck as she was attempting to fill her cup. It took a moment before I realized that while we were upstairs discussing this predicament, the water cooler button was still stuck which meant the water cooler nozzle was unleashing it fury upon the kitchen floo

The Unfolding

Devotional Series, 50 Days of Transformation|

My husband and I sat upon the end of our wrinkly unmade bed. The cat was far too curious for my liking wanting to absorb some attention for himself as our young daughter played quietly in another room. We clasped hands, bent our heads in unison, and boldly walked into the throne room of God presenting before Him everything that sat heavily upon our hearts.

You’ve Been Served

Devotional Series, 50 Days of Transformation|

I walked up to the freshly wiped counter prepared to place my order. My preparation was really a loose thought as my eyes began to roam the expansive menu. What was originally a coffee in my mind was now a nearly limitless bounty of possibilities. I stood in wavering decisiveness; the barista on the other side of the clean counter stood with a lovely smile on his face. He was gracious and lovely and in no hurry to move me along for not a soul stood in line behind me.

Trust Fund

Devotional Series, 50 Days of Transformation|

Computer mogul Bill Gates is best known for his achievements in software development, but over the years as his fortune has accumulated, so has his philanthropic ways. Mr. Gates credits his mother for instilling in him the drive to give to others.
