Scary
Questionable

A Season for Renewal
Spring invites us to pause and reflect on the quiet transition from winter’s cold and darkness. In that season, much can feel hidden or dormant, as though something within us has grown still or faded. Yet spring arrives with light, warmth, and growth—carrying the promise of new life, renewed hope, and beauty emerging where barrenness once remained.

As you move through these days of renewal, Ask yourself:
• What might need to be pruned in my life right now?
• What is God inviting me to release?
• What new growth is He nurturing beneath the surface?

Sit with these questions in prayer. Journal your thoughts.
If you would like prayer, a conversation, or a safe space to share what you are sensing in this season, I welcome you to reach out. You don’t have to walk this journey alone

Read Psalm 139 and think about God's care and love for you.

It is the truth that makes us free-- the truth we know, the truth we understand and act on that makes us free.

Let us think on these things.

Joshua preparing to go forward to conquer the land: IT CAME TO PASS THAT:

Joshua 5:13-14 " 𝑨𝒏𝒅 𝒊𝒕 𝒄𝒂𝒎𝒆 𝒕𝒐 𝒑𝒂𝒔𝒔, 𝒘𝒉𝒆𝒏 𝑱𝒐𝒔𝒉𝒖𝒂 𝒘𝒂𝒔 𝒃𝒚 𝑱𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒄𝒉𝒐, 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒉𝒆 𝒍𝒊𝒇𝒕𝒆𝒅 𝒖𝒑 𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒆𝒚𝒆𝒔 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒍𝒐𝒐𝒌𝒆𝒅, 𝒂𝒏𝒅, 𝒃𝒆𝒉𝒐𝒍𝒅, 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓𝒆 𝒔𝒕𝒐𝒐𝒅 𝒂 𝒎𝒂𝒏 𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒓 𝒂𝒈𝒂𝒊𝒏𝒔𝒕 𝒉𝒊𝒎 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒔𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒅 𝒅𝒓𝒂𝒘𝒏 𝒊𝒏 𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒅: 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑱𝒐𝒔𝒉𝒖𝒂 𝒘𝒆𝒏𝒕 𝒖𝒏𝒕𝒐 𝒉𝒊𝒎, 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒔𝒂𝒊𝒅 𝒖𝒏𝒕𝒐 𝒉𝒊𝒎, 𝑨𝒓𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒐𝒖 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒖𝒔, 𝒐𝒓 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒂𝒅𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒂𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒔?

This is true and the sad thing is they will convince others you are the villain.

When someone can’t face what you reflected back to them, you become the problem.

The research on this is consistent: the mind builds protection patterns early, and one of them is assigning blame outward to keep the self-image intact.

Holding someone accountable triggers their threat response. Your honesty became the threat. That’s about their pattern, not your integrity.

What you did was clear-eyed. What they did with it is theirs to carry.

Look ahead to the Author and finisher of our Faith.

Look ahead--leave the "weights" of the past behind.

𝙒𝙚 𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙤𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙝𝙤𝙡𝙙 𝙤𝙛 𝙖 𝙣𝙚𝙬 𝙩𝙞𝙢𝙚 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙨𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙤𝙣.

Do not be taking things into this new time and season that are obsolete, detrimental, toxic, or expired. Spend time looking into your heart and resolving issues that can be potential “strings” that can affect your future. They can be triggers that tug you back into past unhealthy responses or relationships.

Do not be pulled down into the pit of yesterday's failures. The failures have given you strength, power, and authority.

As my friend would say, "Don't Back Down."

Ask for help to 'cut the strings."

Forgiveness:

The following is a profound statement when Jesus was on the cross-- think on this and let it soak into your whole being.

Luke 23:34 The Crucifixion
𝑊ℎ𝑒𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑦 𝑐𝑎𝑚𝑒 𝑡𝑜 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑝𝑙𝑎𝑐𝑒 𝑐𝑎𝑙𝑙𝑒𝑑 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑆𝑘𝑢𝑙𝑙, 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑦 𝑐𝑟𝑢𝑐𝑖𝑓𝑖𝑒𝑑 𝐻𝑖𝑚 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒, 𝑎𝑙𝑜𝑛𝑔 𝑤𝑖𝑡ℎ 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑐𝑟𝑖𝑚𝑖𝑛𝑎𝑙𝑠, 𝑜𝑛𝑒 𝑜𝑛 𝐻𝑖𝑠 𝑟𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑜𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑟 𝑜𝑛 𝐻𝑖𝑠 𝑙𝑒𝑓𝑡. 𝑇ℎ𝑒𝑛 𝐽𝑒𝑠𝑢𝑠 𝑠𝑎𝑖𝑑, “𝑭𝒂𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓, 𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒈𝒊𝒗𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒎, 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒚 𝒅𝒐 𝒏𝒐𝒕 𝒌𝒏𝒐𝒘 𝒘𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒚 𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒅𝒐𝒊𝒏𝒈.” (𝐴𝑛𝑑 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑦 𝑑𝑖𝑣𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑑 𝑢𝑝 𝐻𝑖𝑠 𝑔𝑎𝑟𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑠 𝑏𝑦 𝑐𝑎𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑙𝑜𝑡𝑠.”…

It was radical! It revealed mercy in the face of gross injustice. He saw their ignorance, acknowledged it. Rather than condemning them He showed unconditional love.

It was not sentimental. It is brawny and was costly, bought with a His blood.

You and I are free to receive forgiveness and step out from the shadow of condemnation, walking forward in grace instead.

There are moments for joy, connection, and reflection.
--There are times that invite us to speak, listen, share laughter or tears, and express emotions. In such moments, we seek presence and perspective—rising above to gain clarity and experience the richness of divine love and glory.

Stillness and silent communication foster meaningful engagement.
These moments encourage us to transcend the material and natural, finding comfort and inspiration enveloped in God's love.

Deep calls to Deep.

He leaves a legacy of changed lives.

Doug went to be with his Savior and Best Friend, Jesus, early this morning, on January 26, 2026, at 12:50 a.m. He died from the devastating effects of a neurologic disorder. He passed peacefully, and while this loss is truly heartbreaking, we also find comfort in knowing that Doug is now fully restored—dancing on streets of gold, in the presence of the Lord, whom he loved so dearly.

Doug was a gifted Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor, and Teacher who equipped and encouraged thousands to step into their God-given destiny. He was a faithful servant of the Lord, a trusted friend, and a source of hope and encouragement to many. He will be deeply missed by all whose lives he touched.

At this time, no memorial service has been scheduled. Details regarding Doug’s Celebration of Life, including any streaming opportunities, will be shared as they become available.

We thank you for your prayers, love, and continued support during this time, especially for Doug's beloved wife, Linda, his partner of 30 years. Though we grieve, we do not grieve without hope, for Doug is now home with Jesus.

With love in Christ,
Linda Addison, the InLight Connection Board of Directors, and the InLight Connection Staff
