About This Blog

Come peer through the lens of Sacred Writings and Scripture to know ourselves and be made whole. There is always medicine to apply in our lives: emotional, relational, social and spiritual. My prayer is that the words of the early church and scripture will inform our identity and bring us healing that equips us to know and serve God with all our hearts.

FASTING FROM WHAT?

 Tuesday, first week of Lent

We were discussing Lent in class yesterday when one woman declared she was fasting from critical thoughts. Ouch. What would happen in us and in our relationships if we did this? How can we create space in our souls to love those who hurt us and deal with those who annoy us? We could simply pray and ask God for His thoughts.

Medicine from Sacred Scripture:

"For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways," declares the Lord. "As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts." Isaiah 55:8, 9
