Sign Up TodayI lie down and sleep; I wake again, because the Lord sustains me. I will not fear though tens of thousands assail me on every side. - Psalm 3:5-6 (NIV)
Four-year-old James climbed into his car seat, and we drove off. “My eyes are closing down,” he announced sleepily. No wonder! He had just spent a long day playing on the beach and splashing in the sea.
I laughed. My eyes were also drooping. How easily sleep takes over when...
I can close my eyes and rest, knowing God never sleeps.

I join many of those who will pray for you as you seek to discern what you are called to be at this moment. May God grant you the courage to fulfill that calling. May we all open our eyes and see the misery, open our ears and hear the cries of God’s people, and, like God through the Lord Jesus Christ, be incarnate amongst them.”
