*Meditation | The Glory of the Lord

June 4, 2026 | Moments Almanac | Churchill

Share Your Thoughts [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2602723/fan_mail/new] On this June 4 edition of Moments Almanac, we remember a day marked by both courage and contemplation. We begin with Winston Churchill's stirring call to perseverance during one of the darkest days of World War II. We then journey to the village of Bethany, where Martha and Mary remind us that while service matters, there is a "better part" found in simply sitting at the feet of Jesus. Along the way, we celebrate the birth of beloved poet Patience Strong and reflect on her beautiful words: "At the gate that swings between this world and the world above, stands the angel of God's mercy with the lamp of love." In a world that urges us to hurry, produce, and strive, today's episode offers a gentle invitation to pause, listen, and receive the mercy that is new every morning. Scripture: Luke 10:38–42; Lamentations 3:22–23 Theme: Choosing the better part—presence before productivity.

The Things that Didn't Happen

Share Your Thoughts [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2602723/fan_mail/new] Some of God's greatest gifts arrive disguised as disappointments. In this deeply personal episode of Scattered Moments, we offer a prayer of gratitude—not for success, applause, or easy answers—but for the things that didn't happen. The job that never came. The promotion that never arrived. The plans that collapsed. The seasons of silence. The valleys of depression. The limitations that taught humility. The failures that drove us back to grace. Looking back across the years, we begin to see that many of the things we once called setbacks were actually invitations. Many of the closed doors were acts of mercy. Many of God's kindest answers sounded exactly like "No." Join us for a reflective spoken-word meditation on God's faithfulness in both the gifts He gives and the gifts He withholds. "Many of the things I called disasters were actually invitations. Many of the things I called setbacks were mercies in disguise." Take care, notice the scattered moments, and share the grace. 🌿 #ScatteredMoments #ChristianMeditation #Gratitude #FaithJourney #GodsGrace #SpokenWord #ChristianPodcast #Devotional #TrustGod #Thanksgiving #SpiritualFormation #PrayerLife
