Watercolor Wednesdays

For the love of a horse…

Today, why not ponder the amazing creatures God has given us to enjoy – horses, dogs, cats, and so many wild creatures. They can enrich our lives through their love and service.

What’s your favorite animal?

What a wonderful time chatting all things friendsh

What a wonderful time chatting all things friendship with Jesus with Ellen from @coffeeandbibletime. Super encouraging to explore the friendships that Jesus had with Martha, Mary and Lazarus - and the friendship he wants to have with us today.

They asked for my favo(u)rite Bible, Bible helps, and app - shout out to the NIV Bible Speaks Today Bible @ivpress, colouring sheets by @lindisfarnescriptorium, and the NIV Bible App with David Suchet narrating @hodderfaith.

Find all the links and how to listen to the podcast in the link on my bio.

Next newsletter coming soon! I'm off to some meet

Next newsletter coming soon!

I'm off to some meetings about Oswald and Biddy Chambers, and so it feels fitting to give away a copy of the new Modern Classic version of My Utmost for His Highest. What a fabulous job the editorial team, led by Macy Halford, did with making this classic more accessible to us today.

I love sharing the story of Oswald and Biddy and how they served God with love and abandon. He's the bestselling author of a devotional for a book he didn't write (not it wasn't plagiarized - Biddy compiled it from his talks after he died, not that she included her name anywhere in the book). Their wisdom continues to be winsome and compelling.

Sign up for my monthly newsletter, for a chance to win and for the prayer practices I offer and photographs to exercise wonder. Link in bio.

We want everything now – including God to make u

We want everything now – including God to make us more loving, kind, and patient. But often his work is slow and gradual, and others might notice God’s transforming love changing us before we do.

Join me in the lovely prayer garden at @ashburnhamplace as I share the thoughts of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, SJ, “Patient Trust.” (Full prayer in comments.)

I'm heading Stateside next week, so if you'd like

I'm heading Stateside next week, so if you'd like a signed copy of Holding onto Hope (or any of my other books), please let me know and I can pop it into the mail. They are $15 each plus postage costs. DM or email me amy (at) amyboucherpye (dot) com

Join me in the woods near to @penhurstretreatcentr

Join me in the woods near to @penhurstretreatcentre to ponder and pray through some of the words of Thérèse of Lisieux, known as the little flower.

She saw the beauty of the ordinary flowers – the daisies and lilies as much as the roses. After all, what would be the glories of springtime if we only had roses? So too, how lovely is the garden of souls, made in the image of God with so much creativity and diversity.

If you’d like to engage in the longer prayer exercise based on Thérèse’s thoughts, you can find that on my YouTube channel (link in bio).

What a privilege to be at @premierradio today, enc

What a privilege to be at @premierradio today, encouraging the fabulous team of radio producers and presenters, led by @charmainenm and Maria Rodrigues, in two of the 7 Ways to Pray from my book of that name. Amazing the creativity they shared from praying with the Bible - I loved it! I love how prayer is foundational for who they are and what they do. Amazing to think of their work beaming into so many homes, bringing God's encouragement, joy, and inspiration.

The lovely Max also interviewed me on Transforming Love, my book about friendship with Jesus which has been out a year now! I'll let you know when it drops - he asked some really insightful questions.

And then I met with one of my directees from within one of the soundproof studios (via zoom). I didn't have to worry about confidentiality!

"More things are wrought through prayer than the world could dream of..." (Lord Tennyson). So very, very true. May it be so.
