Home -- Jesus, Joy and Spirituality

An antidote for grim, sour, negative religion, in short reasons for smiles, peace and a calm deep faith,  a playful faith, a happy faith

Click on Jesus art with cross, Saturn  and moon for more on Christ Risen and Exalted, children's spirituality, and imagination and faith.

Jesus spirituality is here to encourage smiles and laughter, faith and prayer for "the joy of the Lord is

our strength."

                                                                     Happy flowers                                      A child's view of Christ risen and                                                                              growing on rocky cliff                                           exalted into the heavens

Here Whimsy and Faith,
the Sacred and the Silly
are intertwined like the honeysuckle growing on the rose.

You Have A Destiny In God
     You have a destiny in God.  I do not know what it is.  Perhaps you are to be a great comforter going across the street to a widow, arthritic and nearly blind.  Perhaps you will go from house to house spreading cheer to the discouraged and lonely.  Perhaps you are to sow seeds of peace midst the angry, hostile, violent, and bitter.

     God may appoint you to gather into His Kingdom of grace the young, the bold:  bungee jumpers, skate boarders, and snow boarders hot dogging down an icy slope.

     Your destiny in eternity may be to spread glitter for the Milky Way, or to provide jokes for the Apostles in glory, or perhaps you will beat out syncopated rhythms for the multitudes gathered around God's throne upon drums the size of small towns.

                                         I don't know what it is, but

                You Have . . . A Destiny . . . In God.
