This One Feels Risky

In 2011, at a gathering in the redwoods of California, God rocked my world by speaking these words over me: “Your new mission is going after the hearts of creatives.” 

Then God began opening the most unlikely doors for me to do so. Doors I either didn’t know existed…or could never open in my own strength. That journey eventually led to what you’re reading now—these daily thoughts on God, story, and creativity.

This mission brings such joy. It also requires significant time, money, and prayer to keep it going. A good friend once told me: “Allen, you do really well at the ‘with God’ aspect of your calling. It’s the ‘with others’ part you miss. You think what God invited you to do is all up to you and forget there are kindred spirits out there who would love to help along the way. But you have to ask.” 

She’s right. I have to ask. But doing so feels risky. Maybe because I lose subscribers whenever I directly ask for donations. And because a lack of response might reveal these readings have run their course. Yet deep down, I can’t let either hold me back. I sense God’s presence, purpose and pleasure more than ever as I write. And I’ve heard from many of you that it matters. So I’m pushing through my hesitancy and asking.

Will you make a financial gift today to support these free daily readings? Whether you’ve never supported this mission or you regularly do so, every donation matters.

I don’t receive funding from corporations. I don’t sell sponsorships or promotional ad space. There are no large donors. Just individuals like you who believe in this mission and want to keep it going. Donate today via PAYPAL or by check (Allen Arnold, PO Box 62841, Colorado Springs, CO 80962).

I’m grateful to be on this journey with God…and with you.
