I had many things to write to you, but I am unwilling to write to you with ink and pen."…I had many things to write to you, but I am unwilling to write to you with ink and pen." John had more to say, and he saved it for the room instead of the page. Some love simply will not fit in a message sent from a distance. Who are you owed a face to? Maybe the words you keep typing are really a visit waiting to happen.

The wall of insights
What touches you in Scripture? What can we pray for? What can we thank God for?
Thank You for giving us people like Paul, who could say, "I could wish to be present with you now,…Thank You for giving us people like Paul, who could say, "I could wish to be present with you now, and to change my tone." Thank You for those who ache to be with us, who wrestle over our faith, and who love us enough to be perplexed instead of walking away.
Obsessed with arguments, disputes, and word battles" describes a hunger that never gets fed. And look at the harvest: "envy,…Obsessed with arguments, disputes, and word battles" describes a hunger that never gets fed. And look at the harvest: "envy, strife, insulting, evil suspicions." Not one of those is truth. You can win every exchange and quietly lose the ability to think well of anyone. When did you last leave a disagreement loving the other person more?
Lord of every army, you are here in the middle of my noise and worry. When the ground feels unsteady,…Lord of every army, you are here in the middle of my noise and worry. When the ground feels unsteady, remind me that you are my shelter, the same God who kept faith with Jacob. I don't have to hold it all together. You are with us.

You worked the channels, you controlled the flow, you knew exactly what tomorrow would hold. The promised land drinks rain from heaven instead. Freedom meant losing the pump. Maybe what feels like uncertainty right now is God lifting your eyes off your own feet.
Until your people pass over, Yahweh, until the people you have purchased pass over." Notice what God holds still: not…Until your people pass over, Yahweh, until the people you have purchased pass over." Notice what God holds still: not a sea this time, but nations, hardened like stone so Israel can walk through. And notice the word purchased. They owned nothing yet. They were the ones bought. Whatever stands between you and where God is taking you, he can still it long enough for you to pass.
