    I’ve been thinking about the word Godwinks. If i I’ve been thinking about the word Godwinks. If it blesses you, by all means, keep using it. But sometimes it just doesn’t cut it for me. When life feels heavy and trouble presses in, I don’t need a wink—I need a holy embrace. I need the comfort of His Eternal Presence, not a passing gesture. And that’s exactly what He gives.

We live in a broken world. Some of our pain comes from our own choices, some from the choices of others, and some simply from a creation groaning under the weight of sin. God honors the gift of free will, but because He is Love, He never leaves us to walk through the dark alone.

“Even when I walk through the darkest valley, I will not be afraid, for you are close beside me…” Psalm 23:4

When the shadows fall, He steps in with light and peace.

“To give light to them that sit in darkness… to guide our feet into the way of peace.”
(Luke 1:79)

I’ve started calling these sacred moments Glory Glimpses. They’re the times when Heaven leans in with a song, a word, a “coincidence” that feels too personal to be random. They remind us we are seen, loved, and held.

“…and lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.” Matthew 28:20

Glory Glimpses aren’t coincidences. They’re sacred, startling, undeniable reminders that we’re seen. Loved. Held.

We don’t need an occasional wink—we need ongoing faith building wonder. And in His kindness, God gives us Glory Glimpses to remind us He’s near. 

Think back to a time when you received what could only be described as a Glory Glimpse—a moment when God made His presence known in a deeply personal way.

I’d love to hear your memory, but if you don’t want to share, that’s fine. I would, however, encourage you to write it out somewhere as a reminder—and a testimony—for days when His presence feels far away. 

Blessings, friend. #Jesusthoughts #fromatowncalledbyhisname #lakeprovidencela #donttrytopraylikeherbook
