God loves to find His children yearning after Him and seeking His presence. Please find encouragement here to embrace that quest.
We never know when the special moment of enlightenment will overcome us. Sweet yet terrifying seconds tick by as we reel in astonishment. The invisible walls that conceal God´s presence from us vanish. Left without the comfortable fixed points that we humans trust, we begin to tremble. When God shows up, limitations flee, and all...

Christianity today walks down a similar road as the religions of old. Where we once directed the gaze of our souls to Power and wonder above, we hone in on ourselves. We lose the essence of worship. We pray, sing, and listen, but only to our liking. Huddling closer to the herd, we convince ourselves... Continue Reading →
Consider the size of the universe. If we stop and think about it, who can get their head around how small and insignificant planet earth looks? Try to measure the distance and space out there. Our minds cannot capture it all. Wrapped in all that precision and order lies volumes of praise to our limitless... Continue Reading →

When our troubles overcome us, hope seems to have lept out the window, but it hasn´t. Humans have forever groaned under the weight of despair. Yet, as long as we have God, we can hope. We can cry out, “Where are You Lord?” or “How long will You wait before You come to save us?”... Continue Reading →
“Because of the oppression of the weak and because of the groaning of the needy, I will now arise,” says Yahweh; “I will set him in safety from those who malign him.” Psalm 12:5 Let someone come near our children to harm or threaten them, and an instinct to protect rises up from within us....
