Faithfulness in Today's Place

I want you to live faithfully where you are today. We share more than the large, visible things you do. I also delight in the time you spend doing your work honestly and showing goodness to a neighbor.

Tell me the desires of your heart. Trust me enough to discuss them together instead of holding them tightly on your own. The joy of living close to me can help your hopes grow in beautiful ways.

Begin calmly with what you can do today. Let us celebrate what is growing well, and ask me for the strength you need. I want to share joy within your faithful daily work, so that it feels like more than a heavy duty.
