The ‘still, small voice’ of God never calls on me to be like somebody else. It appeals to me to rise to my full stature and fulfill the promise that sleeps within my being. ~Sam Keen


One of the biggest negatives to be found in society today is how the individual is forgotten. Surely we are more than just a number or a statistic or a face in the crowd. We have lost the ability to connect with one person. To lose that is to lose something great and precious. We all have needs and concerns. No one person has it all worked out. No one person is fully safe or secure. No one is shielded from the knocks of life. Our greatest privilege is to connect with someone in our lives today. No matter how small that connection may be it is uniquely precious. The chance may never come in the same way again. When we continue making little connections great things begin to happen. God is always the link in each of these connections. We often talk about how God is love and that we are never on our own. So if our connection is done through love, out of love or in love then we can be sure that God is indeed very close to us.
