The beginning of 2008 God inspired a family ministry called Emerging Life Ministries. At first it was more of an idea than reality but He is gradually unfolding His purpose for this ministry. May He emerge more deeply in your life through this ministry. Visit the complete website at www.emerginglifeministries.net

“My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you?

“As the LORD God of Israel lives, before whom I stand…” 1 Kings 17:1b
There have been few times in my life when circumstances left me shocked and heartbreakingly aware of the fragility of life. This week has been one of those where as hard as I try, my prayers were more robotic than melodic. My focus during the time with God has been fragmented at best. My worship has been rather warm than passionate. The fruit of my lips have tasted more sour this week. So what do we do with those ‘thunders of the flesh’ when what we really need is the gentle rains of the Spirit?
“My beloved spoke and said to me, Arise, my darling, my beautiful one, come with me. See! The winter is past; the rains are over and gone. Flowers appear on the earth; the season of singing has come; the cooing of doves is heard in our land. Arise, come, my darling; my beautiful one, come with me.” Song of Songs 2:10-13
“I will rejoice greatly in the LORD, My soul will exult in my God; For He has clothed me with garments of salvation, He has wrapped me with a robe of righteousness…” Isaiah 61:10
