About Judy Eurey

In my life I am a wife to Ed, a mom to Amanda and Charles, Mimi to Sara and Jessy, and Judy to my friends and family. In 2019 I retired from pastoral ministry and have settled into my new normal. Frankly I love being retired. Unless otherwise noted, the Scripture passages used on my blog DayLight are my own paraphrased interpretations. I invite you to verify, dispute and otherwise comment. I am open to discussion.

DayLight 8.5.14

skyDayLight Scripture – Everything was created through him;  nothing—not one thing!—came into being without him. What came into existence was Life, and the Life was Light to live by. The Life-Light blazed out of the darkness; the darkness couldn’t put it out.

John 1:3-5

DayLight Prayer – Jesus my Lord, When I see the night sky, the wide dark, the flicker of stars, the expanse, I am sure…that you…only you could do such a thing, create such things. You created me, and you created each one of us…the same creator who created the firmament above us. Great is this creative, life making, love showering God of mine! Amen.

Ruth 2:13

DayLight Prayer – Lord,  Thank you for the astonishment I feel sometimes when I am ushered into you presence by your sweet Holy Spirit. I feel just like Ruth, thinking I don’t deserve the blessings that you pour out. I don’t deserve the way you fill my heart and treat me like one of your own. God, I pray for every one of your children who have wandered so far away that they don’t know how much you love them. Save them in Jesus’ name. Amen.
