EasterTide Devotions: Mornings with Jesus - May 2020

MORNINGS with JESUS
EasterTide Devotions
from Guideposts.com

Round Two May!!  I am currently receiving an email every day from Guideposts.com with a devotion entitled Mornings with Jesus.  They include a scripture, a devotion written by a variety of Christian women, and a Faith Step or Challenge.  I found the latter the interesting part of these devotions...a concrete step one might take TODAY to put their faith into action.   For the purpose of my blog, I am only including the scripture and the Faith Step.  I have added my haiku interpretation of the devotion, plus a one-line prayer, all wrapped up in one illustrated prayer!  We will continue until Pentecost with these devotions.

I've had a fascination with the Native American of the Arctic symbol of the InukSuk - a stone 'man' used to help travel across the barren land.  Luke and I often build them when on a hike and then share pictures.

Our friend Genia in Kalispell MT planted a flower garden in a bed frame.  When we came to visit her husband a couple months after her death to cancer, just as we were admiring the flowers, a butterfly landed.  It felt like Genia returning to assure us she was ok - safe in the arms of her Lord.
