TODAY’S PASSAGE
From “Voice Of Jesus 2” by Michael Canfield:
His books are not written as doctrine or argument, but as a record of lived experience—success and failure, loss and restoration, doubt and faith—viewed through the lens of that ongoing spiritual relationship. During the completion of this work, Michael was deeply moved to write and produce an original song dedicated to Jesus titled: Though he had no prior background in music, the song emerged naturally from the same spirit of gratitude and listening that guided the writing of these books. A listening link (copy and paste to browswer) is included for readers who wish to experience the song as a companion to the journey.
REFLECTION
There’s something beautifully honest about a faith journey that doesn’t hide the messy parts. Michael Canfield’s approach reminds us that authentic spirituality isn’t about having all the answers or presenting a polished image—it’s about showing up with our whole selves, scars and all. When we read about someone’s real struggles with doubt, their actual losses, and their genuine restoration, we recognize ourselves in those pages. This is the kind of witness that touches hearts: not a theological argument to win, but a life lived in relationship with the Divine, with all its ups and downs laid bare.
What strikes me most powerfully is how gratitude and listening can move us beyond our perceived limitations. Michael had no musical background, yet a song emerged from his heart—not through technique or training, but through the overflow of a grateful spirit attuned to something greater. How often do we limit ourselves by what we think we can or cannot do? How many gifts remain locked inside us because we’re waiting for the “right” credentials or the perfect moment? This passage whispers a profound truth: when we live in deep connection with Love itself, creativity flows through us in unexpected ways.
The same spirit that guided the writing guided the song. This tells us something essential about how divine inspiration works in our lives. It’s not compartmentalized into “spiritual” activities versus everything else. When we cultivate that ongoing relationship—that practice of listening and gratitude—it infuses everything we touch. Your faith might express itself through cooking, gardening, parenting, or a kind word to a stranger. You don’t need to be a theologian or an artist. You just need to stay connected, stay grateful, and stay open to however Love wants to flow through you today.
THIS SPEAKS TO ME BECAUSE…
Today, consider what might be trying to emerge from your own spirit of gratitude. What creative expression, act of kindness, or word of encouragement is waiting to flow through you—not because you’re qualified, but because you’re willing? Where is Love inviting you to move beyond your limitations and simply let the overflow happen?
