A simple pencil in the hand of a master writer is a tool to tell a powerful story.   In the same way your life, in the hands of God, is a story of grace waiting to be written.

You have been carefully chosen,  gently held, directed and purposed in the Hand of God to be used by Him, right where you are.

‭‭Psalm‬ ‭139:9-10‬ ‭NIV‬‬

The most powerful thing you can do today is to surrender completely, restfully and trust Him to guide you to be an instrument of hope, love, encouragement, and strength to those around you. God knows where you are.


You are a pencil in the hand of a writing God…what story of grace will He tell through your life today?

In Season or Out.



2 Timothy‬ ‭4‬:‭2‬ NIV

There are seasons of life that you are where you are supposed to be and doing what you are supposed to be doing. You are “in” season. You are inspired, motivated and moving forward.

Then there are seasons when you feel downright out of it. You are not where you want to be and not doing what you think you should be doing. You are in an “out” season. You are discouraged, unmotivated and stuck.

The thing is, Jesus will use you in both seasons to reach out to people who need his love.

In fact, it is often the seasons that knock you to your knees that impact other people the most:

  • When the diagnosis doesn’t shake your faith. 
  • When you face a hard time but it doesn’t harden your heart.
  • When you are brave in the face of uncertainty and transparent as you lean on God for strength. 

Be prepared to walk with God in the good times and bad, easy seasons and hard ones because God is prepared to walk with you through it all.

If you are available, He will use you to minister to those around you.

God’s love is always in season, may you be filled with it today.


Wherever God has placed you, whoever He has surrounded you with, whatever job He has given you to do, He has you there for a purpose and it is not as complicated as you think it is.

“You are the salt of the earth. (‭Matthew‬ ‭5‬:‭13‬ NIV)

You are to be a precious “additive” to the world you live in and in the work you do.

Salt is valuable as well as enhances whatever it is added to.

You are there to add value. That alone is a gift so many people are craving- simply the recognition that they are valued.

And they are valuable to God- so valuable that He paid the ultimate price to love them.

May God shake you up today and pour you out for someone who desperately needs to know that they are precious and valuable to God.
