Save the Children
More than 3 million refugees have fled Ukraine now, at least 1.5 million of them children. Amidst the mayhem, about 5000 Ukrainian children are unaccounted for.

Saudi Arabia
As we continue praying for war-torn Ukraine and Yemen, let’s lift up Saudi Arabia, which has been in the news this week due to a mass execution last Saturday.

Courage to Forgive
Is there anyone I haven’t forgiven yet? Show me, please, Lord, and give me courage to forgive. Forgiveness is not saying that what the offender did is okay. Sin is never okay. And it’s not forgetting, although forgetting sometimes happens as a result of forgiveness. Forgiveness is cutting the tie that binds your heart toContinue reading “Courage to Forgive”
Joyfully One
A few nights ago I had a dream in which God’s people gathered from all nations to daily have breakfast together. There was no distinction between races, cultures or portions, but all were of one Kingdom, one family, and all received the same perfectly proportioned manna-cake. They were laughing, each seated wherever they were inContinue reading “Joyfully One”
