Creating Safe Spaces To Know God In Ourselves More Deeply
God doesn’t play by human rules or wishes. God invites us into Life where grace, mercy, love and forgiveness abound for each of us. God doesn’t give as the world gives. God asks us to receive and to give in new ways. God invites us to use the gifts we were each given for the benefit of all of us.
