Today’s devotional is a testimony, praise report and a devotional all rolled into one. Last year as I sat upon the rocks on Lake Huron the day before I left to come back home from my vacation and visiting my mother, I prayed!! I prayed and asked our Father “how many more times will I have to leave this place that I do not want to leave?” It was getting harder and harder for me to do so with every passing year of visiting there. I asked Him, would I ever be able to just stay there? He…

Two men met to transact some business in wartime. The one was full of how the train in which he had travelled had been attacked from the air. He would not stop talking about the

excitement, the danger, and the narrow escape. The other

man, in the end, said quietly—‘Well, let’s get on with our business now. I’d

First off I would like to say that as a child my family would go to church, not every Sunday, but we did go alot. We also went to church every Christmas eve. I also attended Sunday school as a child.

Where did we leave brother Paul? We look now at his letter to the church he had established in the city of Corinth, in which he

My dad got sick when I was 12 years old. He lost his legs for two years because of his sickness and died when I was 14 years old. I remember so many good things about my dad but one thing that sticks to my mind and I will always treasure in my heart is this one incident. I was acting fresh, talking like an unsaved teen. I was answering my mom in an unapropriate tone and thought I knew it all. My actions made her so mad and promised me good spanking right then and there (lol). I got…

FOR IT IS WRITTEN,I WILL BAFFLE AND RENDER USELESS AND DESTROY THE LEARNING OF THE LEARNED AND THE PHILOSOPHY OF THE PHILOSOPHERS AND THE CLEVERNESS OF THE CLEVER AND THE DISCERNMENT OF THE DISCERNING; I WILL FRUSTRATE AND NULLIFY THEM AND BRING THEM TO NOTHING.1ST CORINTHIANS 1:19

Psalm 91 (King James Version)

Today as I type this, I am trying to remember a time when I was more under God’s protective wing than I am right now. Have you ever felt that there is no…

PSALM 84

I just read this Psalm today and was left with such a feeling of peace and in awe of the God we serve. How wonderful to be in His presence and to be filled to overflowing as I…
