It feels like a whirlwind, doesn’t it? Every day is wrought with chaos, confusion, and despair. Every day is rife with hopelessness. Dim, empty eyes stare beyond the masks in their search for peace.

I grabbed my jacket and took off for a much needed walk. The periwinkle sky of November illuminated the remaining red and yellow leaves of fall. Sunshine bathed me in warmth as I labored up the hill to the white clapboard church where a bench awaited me.

A Prayer When Anxious Thoughts are Consuming You

Posted by Nan Jones | Nov 15, 2020 | beyond the veil, bible devotions online, Christian Living, Finding God's Presence, Nan Jones author and speaker, prayer |

Lord, You are high and lifted up. You are holy, sovereign, and You are God — OUR God. Search us and know our anxious thoughts that ravage our minds and steal our peace.

You are our peace.

And You are with us — a very present help in times of trouble.

The morning dew lay heavy upon the grass, glistening drops of refreshment clinging to each blade. In each tiny globe of moisture, the light of a new day reflected like glitter scattered across the field. Searching for renewed hope in God, the tiny beads of light got my attention.

I thought of how the dew was formed — the warm air rising from the earth clashing with the cooler air of descending darkness.

A Prayer When Casting All our Cares on Him Isn’t Happening

Posted by Nan Jones | Nov 8, 2020 | beyond the veil, bible devotions online, Christian Living, Finding God's Presence, Nan Jones author and speaker, prayer |

Lord, what a mighty God You are! Faithful and true, merciful and kind. We need You, Lord. Our burdens are heavy, and we’re having a hard time casting all our cares on You.

We are sheep. You are our shepherd. We are not designed to CARRY our burdens — You are. We are designed and instructed to cast them onto You –to throw them towards You like a fisherman with his net.

As Broken Pieces of former Glory Blow in the Wind, God Speaks

I pulled my jacket closer to my chin. The fall air felt crisp, even though the sun shone faithfully in the eastern sky. I rounded the curve by the massive sugar maple, its glorious shades of crimson now transitioning to brown — broken pieces of former glory.

While pondering the tree’s recent beauty, I heard a crackling sound at my feet. A multitude of brown, brittle leaves hurried across the road in front of me, ushered by a brisk wind. The crackling was pronounced.
