Greetings from All Over
Hello friend, we hope this newsletter finds you well. Our last, belated newsletter was just a few days ago, sent while on the road as we left Miami. This week's newsletter is being sent while Amy is continuing on her journey along the Gulf Coast while Lee is taking a side adventure in Seattle. Regardless of where we are, it is always an honor and privilege to schedule this podcast and newsletter, knowing God is speaking to many of you through it.
For those who have been with us for awhile, thank you! We are grateful to have you as a faithful listener. For those who are new here, thank you as well! May you be blessed as you spend time meditating on God's word.

It is week five of the What's Your Word series. If you have a word for 2025 and would like it to be considered for an upcoming podcast, there's still time. Send us your word at [email protected] and we will add it to the list.
This Week's Podcast
The word illuminate was sent in by Alexandra. I love how this word is associated to light; being able to see, going from darkness to light. God illuminate’s his guidance, truth and revelation to us.
Your word is a lamp for my feet,
a light on my path.
When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ.
I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people,
Arise, shine, for your light has come,
and the glory of the Lord rises upon you.
Reflection
God uses the his word to illuminate our path. What has been revealed to your through the His word lately?
What aspect is God revealing to you when you meditate on the idea of Jesus being the light of the world? What does it mean to you that His light is in you?
Is there somewhere in your life where God is calling you to arise and shine? To have His glory shine through you?

A Daily Declaration
God's word, and his truth, illuminate my path wherever I go. He lights the way so that I can walk confidently without stumbling.
