“It needs some organization”, I say
bumping over cracks in pavement.
But I’ll work harder, smarter, even better
I’ve never been afraid of hard work.

A Year in Review
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! The Wright Family has eased slowly in 2026, reflecting more than hitting the pavement. 2025 was full of changes, the biggest being the birth of our daughter, Laurel. By God’s grace, we are now living life as a family of five. Month by month, here is a quick highlight…
“Two Questions”
ONE) IS THERE ANY TRUE LOVE WITHOUT SERVICE? I hear that love is flowers and flutters, Passion and attraction or small jewelry boxes, Love songs with lyrics that stir the emotions But I look to the Gospels and hear a question, begged off the pages — Is there any true love without service? Service that’s…
No match for this
For anyone starting out the new year with lofty goals, aspirations, and hopes for the future — but soon finds themselves overwhelmed by lack and need: There is no want for those who fear Him. There is no hunger or lack for those who trust in the Lord. There is no match for our God,…

Rain has fallen and refreshes.
I cannot breathe in deep enough,
Remembrance of Eden floods the senses. And even more, something greater still, Rustles in the trees. Anticipation.

Not only has Jesus made unity and love possible, but they are already our reality, a byproduct of the finished work of Christ through His death on the cross and the power of His resurrection, if only we could look up and out and embrace them as ours. These are not theoretical concepts if we are saved by the blood of Jesus and brought into His family. They are tangible gifts of grace, enabling us to rise above the noise of this world, to a place that is peaceable, gentle, and for each one of us.
The Pose of Stillness
As we experienced recently, sometimes it is in stillness, even stillness that one doesn’t choose, where we experience the vastness of God’s power. In rest, He is still working. He is still holding us, holding everything.
Jesus Always Yields Abundance
Since the pandemic arrived on our shores, the past few months have drawn me toward pondering the concepts of scarcity and abundance. Through the COVID-19 shutdown, we have experienced feelings of scarcity as a society that many of us have never faced before. Grocery shelves remained empty for several weeks, many people have gone without…
