The Sliding Scale of Anxiety and Peace
Our lives can often feel like they are as delicate to balance as that sliding scale. On the pan side we heap the issues, concerns, values and struggles of our lives. They drop the pan down, weighing heavy on our hearts. And to balance them out, we turn to worry, anxiety, coping mechanisms, vices, other people, work, and many other things. It’s as though we think, by employing these actions, we are sliding the weights along the arm of the scale, able to determine the perfect moment of balance.

Thoughts on Hope
Our hope is not anchored in some fantasy, some dream or wish...our hope is firmly held in the unchanging nature of God, His redemptive completed plan and in the ongoing security of the Living Christ! This is an established, certain and unbreakable hope that supersedes and overcomes all uncertainty, fear, weariness and shaking. He is that firm foundation and secure place for our souls to find their rest and hold fast in this current storm.

Tuning into the Frequency of God
God is always speaking. He is always “broadcasting”, so to speak, and He wants to speak to each and every one of us if we are willing to listen. Like that radio in the basement, hearing God has to do with a few key things as we seek to tune to the frequency of heaven.
