Worship is… We are called to an everlasting preoccupation with God. – A.W. Tozer

@gpackiam 👊🏻 looking forward to it - praying encourages many

With four long flights this week (3-4 hours each), I’m happy to report that the manuscript for “This is Not the End” — my new book about the truly radical nature of Christian hope and what it means for us here and now— now stands at just over 37,400 words! I have one chapter left to write. Then maybe an epilogue of sorts. Then months of editing— from content to copy editing. But hey, book number 10 is nearing the most important finish line: a clean first draft. (No AI has been or will be used in the writing of this book!)

“However, God has listened; he has paid attention to the sound of my prayer. Blessed be God! He has not turned away my prayer or turned his faithful love from me.” -Psalms 66:19-20 CSB

Your past isn’t just in your past, if it’s still messing with your present. Get help. Get healing. ❤️‍🩹 🙏🏻

Amen.

Perspective…👀 “The Lord looks down from heaven; he observes everyone. He gazes on all the inhabitants of the earth from his dwelling place. He forms the hearts of them all; he considers all their works.” -Psalms 33:13-15

Human relationships are not perfect, they’re rupture and repair. They are messy and a must - … and forgiveness and healing rhythms are a needed for them to thrive.

“For the Lord is great and highly praised; he is feared above all gods. For all the gods of the peoples are worthless idols, but the Lord made the heavens. Splendor and majesty are before him; strength and joy are in his place.” 1 Chronicles 16:25-27 CSB

“One of the most beautiful gifts in the world is the gift of encouragement.” John O’Donohue

For every one look at your sins, take five looks at your Savior. -Timothy Keller

In You I rest, in You I found my hope In You I trust, You never let me go I place my life within Your hands alone Be still, my soul

“Lord, your faithful love reaches to heaven, your faithfulness to the clouds. Your righteousness is like the highest mountains, your judgments like the deepest sea…How priceless your faithful love is, God! People take refuge in the shadow of your wings.” Psalms 36:5-7 CSB

“May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who has loved us and given us eternal encouragement and good hope by grace, encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good work and word.” 2 Thessalonians 2:16-17 CSB

“God, your way is holy. What god is great like God? You are the God who works wonders; you revealed your strength among the peoples.” Psalms 77:13-14 CSB

“I will thank the Lord with all my heart; I will declare all your wondrous works. I will rejoice and boast about you; I will sing about your name, Most High.” -Psalms 9:1-2 CSB

We don’t stop our spiritual formation by asking questions - we stop our formation when we don’t. J.R. Briggs

“Not out of the poverty of our own heart, but out of the riches of God’s Word should we pray.” -Dietrich Bonhoeffer *(pray through the Psalms)
