Perfect timing when the President is threatening to destroy a 7,000 year old civilization. I am usually the first to reach for my phone. Silence can be and is golden if we let it be.
This is so beautifully said. I had forgotten that particular Psalm. It truly does state where we are.
One hard thing for me is the scale and hate driving events. We read about martyers and people who suffered for their faith. I never expected to be in a targeted group.
I quite literally was just now crying because of the news email I read before this. This helped me to even out my breathing again. Thank you so much 🙏🏻
This is good medicine. Not the shiny kind. The kind that hands your nervous system a chair and tells it to sit down before empire turns your soul into static. “Consuming more of it is not the same thing as caring about it” ought to be stitched on half the internet. Silence, borrowed prayers, one honest friend. That’s not retreat. That’s how you keep the fire outside from moving into your bones.

Your I sights are valuable. Thank you

Perfect timing. Thank you, Beau. ❤️
Oh my goodness!! Thank you so much. You have no idea how much this helps me.
Thank you for the reminder of time tested ways to center ourselves in the midst of chaos and fear.
This is great, Beau, thank you.
What a beautiful article!
Thank you.
It reminds me of a couple of hymns that have “spoken” to me…
Though the earth shall change,
though the mountains tremble,
though the waters rage,
You, God, are here.
Though the nations war,
though the peoples battle,
though the empire falters,
we will not fear.
You can hear the hymn on YouTube—>

Take, oh, take me as I am;
Summon out what I shall be;
Set your seal upon my heart and live in me.

Sitting with this “balm for my soul”, I want you to know how much I appreciate your ministry.
