On Earth as it is in heaven

Happy New Year. I know New Year’s hits a little different. We are still dealing with the effects of last year’s trauma. Our glasses are definitely a little more than half empty. It’s ok. It’s going to be alright, and this too shall pass. It’s a little hard to believe. We are a bit shell shocked. God is faithful. If you don’t believe me, go look in the mirror. You survived. You made it when you didn’t think you would. You arrived even when the path wasn’t clear. You have scars, but they are evidence that you are healed. Pray these words with me, “on Earth as it is in heaven.” Breathe. Guess what? God made you from the dust of the Earth. You are made from that stuff you sweep out your homes and kick off your shoes. You are created from what you dismiss on a daily basis. Take a moment to marvel at God’s creation….you. Take a moment to recognize your connection to your creator. You have access. You have power. Decree and Declare. Speak life. Speak joy. Speak it in to existence, on Earth as it is in heaven. Amen.
