Echoes Interwoven

A Warrior's Resolve - Finding Strength in the Battle

This episode focuses on a fierce battle involving a resilient woman and a daunting giant. Despite immense odds, the woman perseveres and continues to struggle, refusing to surrender. 
As her strength wanes and her fellow warrior falters under the weight of disappointment. The embodiment of divine love, Jesus, responds to her doubts. His compassionate words enlighten her, reminding her that strength lies in divine love, and miracles are born from needing and loving each other genuinely.
Jesus assures her, when she acknowledges her inability to carry her burdens alone, that Mountains only move when we push together. He communicates an enlightening truth, reminding her that strength is usually found in shared struggles and collective efforts.
We often look for huge miracles in our lives and get disappointed when we don't find them. However, numerous small miracles occur around us that we often fail to appreciate. These seemingly trivial moments of grace - a restful sleep, a phone call from a worried child, or even a sweaty hug after a workout, are the small miracles that count.
Closing with a prayer for healing, wholeness, blessings, strength and patience, this episode encourages everyone to appreciate every small miracle in their lives. The last section titled 'The Unravel', extends a request to its listeners to offer a moment of prayer for the warriors in their lives - those who are fighting their own personal battles.
Tune in to this soul-stirring episode of faith, struggle, and life's little miracles, to find renewed strength and inspiration. Be blessed!

Pink and Blues

Engulfed by the dawn's splendor, the weaving tale of my morning unfolds. With every burst of color and every breath of the morning air, I felt God's divine creation being revealed in its glory. I craved to capture the beautiful spectacle, but this moment, crafted specially for me, was for my heart to etch and nurture.
Even the finest artist fails to frame the true grandeur of nature, and here I was, lost in admiring the pinks and blues of the morning, the cotton candy cloud edges, and the sun's majestic dance.
It was my moment. I hope you find yours too.

Still Feet to Wash

In this episode, we are reminded of the perseverance necessary in every stage of life, from raising a newborn to caring for aging parents. "Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up." - Galatians 6:9. Sentiments of weary days and sleepless nights make it more than evident how the thought of yielding can be tempting.
These are the days when the strength in faith really takes a stance. As this tale unravels, we comprehend the timeless biblical message of endurance through the challenges of daily life. The candid reflection resonates deeply as we see ourselves in the throes of persistent tiredness and yet, always hopeful.
In the midst of our exhaustion, we are urged to find strength in Christ. Even at His weakest, Jesus found it vital to carve out time to share and perform acts of service. Borrowing that strength, we gather the courage to continue the journey, to pick up the fallen, to ensure care is given as it was once received.
The episode concludes on a note of introspective solitude, where relief is found in pouring out feelings into words. A gentle reminder to all in their own paths of weariness - incite courage, find peace in prayer, for there are still feet to wash. Recharge, renew, and be ready to face the days ahead, for your strength will surprise you.
Be blessed today!

Life Imitates Heart

Art may imitate life or vice versa, but for me, it is most important that life imitates not only art, but heart, God’s heart. As long as that remains true, all else will fall into place.

Pop the Clutch

When your battery is drained, it takes friends to push the truck, pop the clutch and get it going. Our lives are the same.

Above the Clouds

On a recent flight, I found it was more a journey of the soul than just of geographical space.

Beyond the Bucket

A front-end loader’s bucket has length, width, and depth. Add in a little math with curves and angles, and you find a volume, and that’s what it holds. It can only move so many loads in a day, and that’s all. Who are we to think we should do more?

Fishin's not about Catchin'

Fishin's was not always about catchin' fish. There is beauty in a properly tied lure or baiting a hook, to sit still and be quiet as “to not scare the fish away.”

Worry Buckets

In the presence of a miracle, why am I drawn toward the trouble that lies beyond its shadow? The question itself reveals the answer - “lies”.
