A Soul Happy in the Lord
Amen and amen."The first great and primary business to which I ought to attend every day was to have my soul happy in the Lord."
—George Müller
It's more important than anything else you do each day. More important than pouring your first cup of coffee, packing lunches, or taking a shower. More important than checking social media, reading the day's headlines, or responding to that email.
Don't miss it, sweet friend.
Do the thing that makes your soul happy in the Lord each and every day. Belt out some praise. Soak in the Word. Devote yourself to prayer. And then go on with your day, carrying that happiness with you everywhere you go.

The Simple Rhythm that Gives Me Peace
It's easy to taste and see the goodness of God out there on my back porch every morning. After a spring that was far busier than I expected or planned for, believe me when I say that I'm appreciating the gift of slowing down for a while.
What's so good about Good Friday?
It's a contradiction, really, to speak of Good Friday as good. It is, after all, the day that Jesus died, and we don't usually think of death as a good thing. When's the last time you saw someone jumping for joy after a loved one died? Probably never.
The Cross Finds You
Given the option between a life of ease and a life of suffering, I'll take the the easy road every time. Yes please to the good life. Hard pass on the hardship. But Jesus isn't like me. He knew what was to come, and he walked toward it with eyes and arms wide open.
