193 - Adjust My Eyes

The Quiet Place with Sherri Youngward ·

2025/01/19

Psalm 8:3-4When I look at the night sky and see the work of your fingers-- the moon and the stars you have set in place-- what are mortals that you should think of us, mere humans that you should care for us? I love how David expresses what I have felt at the edge of the sea or underneath a blanket of stars — when there is an immediate adjustment to my perception of my size, and to my perception of God’s size. I need my eyes adjusted to God’s size often. Creation is meant for that, and this

Psalm 1:1-3 NIVBlessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers, but whose delight is in the law of the LORD, and who meditates on his law day and night. That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither— whatever they do prospers. On January 1st, I wrote these verses in my journal. I had in mind the women who are joining me in reading through

Psalm 139:3 You search out my path and my lying down and are acquainted with all my ways. "And art acquainted with all my ways - All the paths that I tread; the whole course of my life. All that I do, in all places and at all times, is fully known to thee." Barnes As I reflected on the whole course of my life, I wanted to share the story of my second birthday, which happened when I was eighteen years old. I discovered this has been one of my most played and shared episodes and I am revisiting it

2 Corinthians 4:6 For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ. Last week, we looked at God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ as an infant. This week, we will move ahead to God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ as a grown-up. I will share Scripture that gave me a literal sigh of relief. I will read to you from: Luke 4:14-21 Luke 8:42-48 Matthew

2 Corinthians 4:6 For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ. What comes into your mind when you think of the face of Christ as an infant? Who among us would choose to come into the world the way He did? Even as an infant, He challenged the way of the world and the way of "me." Right from the start, Jesus modeled humility, dependence and trust. I will read to you

“Grace is the overflowing favor of God, and you can always count on it being available to draw upon as needed.”Oswald Chambers Our understanding of grace deepens over time, doesn’t it? Though the very first time we experience God’s grace seems like it would be the most impactful, still over time there is a tenderness that grows and grows. I suppose it’s because our relationship with Jesus grows and grows. In this episode, we will have a moment of remembering God’s grace toward us. I will end

This week, we are revisiting a favorite episode. We hope you enjoy going back with us. Psalm 142:3 When my spirit faints within me, you know my way! In the path where I walk they have hidden a trap for me. In this episode, we will look at Psalm 142, which David wrote in an actual cave. There is much to learn from David in that room without a view. This Psalm met me recently and helped me identify some sneaky snares and traps. Once identified, it was much easier to step right over them. I

186 - Poor or Rich?

The Quiet Place with Sherri Youngward ·

2024/12/01

James 2:5 Listen, my beloved brothers, has not God chosen those who are poor in the world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom, which he has promised to those who love him? As people who love and follow God, we can be both poor and rich at the same time. Poor means: helpless, powerless to accomplish an end, needy, lacking in anything. In this episode, I will highlight the Source of our riches and consider how we might spend those riches while on Earth. It was helpful for me to remember

1 Corinthians 13:4-8a Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant, does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered, does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails— F.B. Meyer wrote: "Jesus sits for his portrait in these glowing sentences, and of him every clause is true." As I

184 - The Greatest of These

The Quiet Place with Sherri Youngward ·

2024/11/17

1 Corinthians 13:13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. FB MEYER wrote: "God’s nature is not specially characterized by faith, because there is no uncertainty with his perfect knowledge; nor by hope, because there is no future to his eternal existence. But God is love; and to love is to resemble Him." Though returned love is wonderful, often our greatest heartache revolves around those we love the most. Jesus was the perfect example of sacrificial

Psalm 23:6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD forever. This is the last episode of The Restore Project. I will go over some themes we’ve looked at in this series, kind of like when you skip a rock and it leaves rings where it’s been. Just a skim over. Maybe you’ll hear something you want to

(Feel free to listen in any order.) 2 Corinthians 12:10 That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong. Sometimes I expect way more from my human self than I have to give. I fight it and want to be more. Picture a sheep with a superhero cape.

He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters. In this episode, we focus on how Psalm 23 reveals the symptoms of our soul and leads us toward the cure. When I read that “quiet waters” can be translated as “waters of rest,” it made me pause and take a deep breath. These words brought to

Welcome to The Restore Project—a series centered around Psalm 23. Here is Session 4. (Feel free to listen in any order.) Psalm 23:1"The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want." When trying to understand a word, I often list its antonyms. For "abundance," these might be: want, lack, need, poverty, and inadequacy. In Ezekiel 34, God lists the failures of the bad shepherds who mistreated His flock. They didn’t strengthen the weak, heal the sick, or seek the lost. As a result, the people were
