Tea Time Tuesday: Filling the Treasure Chest of Your Heart (with Keelia Clarkson) - Episode 949

We must persevere, to subdue, to create beauty in our world. When the walls within our home bring safety, the music brings comfort, the food satisfies the body, the touch brings affection, the words bring hope, we are like the Holy Spirit—bringing the reality of God to the dark places of our world.

Lifegiving words have deep, abiding power. It is through words that we come to understand the truth about the Lord.

I am so excited today to be able to tell you about a wonderful new book that is coming into the world today. My lovely daughter in law, Keelia Clarkson, is sending out her first book, Chapter One Again.

Do you remember that He has come, that He is coming, that He continues to call men and women to Himself? Do you live your life with an eye open to the eternal things God might want to do in your own life? To love your neighbor, give to the needy, spread light?

Do I say, "yes" to God, give myself to serve in whatever way He asks?

Faithfulness happens over thousands of days, years, of laying down our lives.

There is a depth of love and a sense of "belonging to one another," a completeness, when I can be with my adult children and grandchildren. 

I will be gone for one more week, but I will keep trying to make at least short podcast to tell you where I've been. Have a great week! And be sure to make something new and creative to delight yourself and your family.

Today was a really fun podcast and recording with Ainsley and my dear friends who have been a part of God's movement through our lives into this world.

Without love, we become noisy gongs, clanging symbols, and fail to reach hearts of our people with messages of truth. Love is the most profound reflection of Christ in a fallen world.
