galilee whispers

My sweet granddaughter is enough to make me smile all day long. Then there's the anticipation of picking up our camper next week; learning to be a camper and planning road trips with the family gives me so much to look forward to. Starting Galilee Whispers with the girls, and having a place to blog are dreams come true and answered prayers in the making. I have so much to be excited about and to be thankful for!

But also, never far from my mind, and quite heavy on my heart, is the growing crisis of hopelessness in our world. There is deep pain and fear that can become a part of life when you or someone near you isn't emotionally or mentally healthy. We've walked through it more than once as a family and understand the enormity of it.

The name Galilee Whispers came to Andrea suddenly one day, when it seemed to perfectly fit the way we have heard God's voice over the years. She is quick to point out that it should begin with 'asking' - we need to seek God - but He still does answer in a soft, gentle leading voice. Once you begin to pray, and ask for healing and guidance, and once you are intentionally waiting for answers, you will think thoughts you know aren't yours... helpful people and messages will be placed in your path.

Jesus, the voice from Galilee, saw the crowds and had compassion. The book of Matthew, chapter 5, in the Bible says that Jesus "taught them, saying: "blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted."

My prayer is that you are enjoying another day of life, always a gift to be appreciated, or that you will begin to find the healing you need today. We intend to share some resources that have meant so much to us during the past few years.
