He is risen indeed. Hope is not gone. Love is not finished. New life is still breaking through in ways seen and unseen. However this day meets you, may it remind you that renewal is real and joy still finds its way forward. #Easter #WakeDiv

For this week's reflection - close your eyes - take a deep breath - and be honest with yourself. If that breath was your first deep breath today, take another one. They don't cost a thing. Name something that's calling you into a slower pace 👇 :
