Quote of the Day:
“The road I’ve traveled… is pockmarked by disastrous victories and magnificent defeats, soul-diminishing successes and life-enhancing failures. Seasons of fidelity and betrayal, periods of consolation and desolation, zeal and apathy are not unknown to me.
And there have been times…
when the felt presence of God was more real to me than the chair I was sitting on;
when the Word ricocheted like broken-backed lightning in every corner of my soul;
when a storm of desire carried me to places I had never visited.
And there have been other times…
when I identified with the words of Mae West: “I used to be Snow White – but I drifted”;
when the Word was as stale as old ice cream and as bland as tame sausage;
when the fire in my belly flickered and died;
when I mistook dried-up enthusiasm for gray-haired wisdom;
when I dismissed youthful idealism as mere naivete;
when I preferred cheap slivers of glass to the pearl of great price.”
~Brennan Manning
Lyrics of the Day:
“Safety pin me to your chest
so I can stay put
Please don’t leave me in this mess
cause I am this close to unraveling, unraveling
Don’t give up on me now, this can all be mended
We can iron this out, it can all be mended
When you’re tearing at the seems, it can all be mended
It can all be mended now”
~“Mended” by The Autumn Film

Verse of the Day:
“Care for the flock that God has entrusted to you. Watch over it willingly, not grudgingly—not for what you will get out of it, but because you are eager to serve God. Don’t lord it over the people assigned to your care, but lead them by your own good example.”
~1 Peter 5:2-3
