On Today's Message: "Testimony to the Other Side"

Wow, brought tears to my eyes as I thought about my most recent painful experience but it also brought a smile to my soul as I thought about how God's hands lead me through my pain. I am so touched and delighted because these messages continue to encourage me in my faith journey with God.

Message: "An Expected End"

I love your site and be so eagered as I await the next devotion. As I read today's one and went back to July's to glance and reread, it occurred to me I had missed one-"An Expected End". I immediately clicked to read. It was of great inspiration to me. It blessed me! When my mother died six months ago after a two year battle with cancer, though the doctor told us we needed to prepare ourselves-when she passed I still was not ready to lose her, so to me it felt unexpectd.
God's timing may not always be ours-his plan may not be our plan, but we can rest assured HE knows best. In order to truly see and understand that we have to learn his will has to be fulfilled.
Then when an expected end comes even in the midst of our sorrow we will still be able to stay strong like the couple knowing that those he put in our life was a gift for a purpose.
I find myself now thanking God for the time he gave me my mother than mourning for her like I did when she passed. For I know that God doesn't make mistakes and won't put any more of us than we could bare. I think about the big smile on her face knowing she would not choose to come back if she could. Keep spreading the word of God, for only what we do for Christ will last!

Be blessed,

Message: "We Can See You"

I loved the message for today "we can see you" I put myself in the scenario (as many people I'm sure will do the same) and although it made me laugh it also made me want to re-evaluate the things I say, do, and think about. (Thinking most of all, because our actions stem from what we are thinking) Working on a better me, and this site along with the book you sent are helping more than you know :-)   This message brought light to me and I'm sharing it with others! Love the site by the way! And I love you, thx for sharing your gift!

Message: "An Expected End"

Just finished the message on Expectations as I am sitting in the waiting room at the VA Hospital for G's surgery. I am praying that both G and I are prepared for the unexpected even as we expect the best. I am asking that you continue to pray for us and minister to us. Please include all the men, women and children who are sick physically, mentally and emotionally.   Thank you.
