Each of us has a set of different goals

As I reflected on my email devotion this morning from Charles Stanley I paused for a moment to reflect on the theme which was plans and goals that brought the end results of success! (God’s Plan for Success, Proverbs 3: 5-12) A few points I want to mention are Set Goal’s According to Gods Will [...]
I wanted to share this as I reflect on it, its an email devotion from Max Lucado: “He forgives your sins—every one.” Psalm 103:3 The Message It’s against God’s nature to remember forgiven sins . . . He who is perfect love cannot hold grudges. If he does, then he isn’t perfect love. And if [...]
Depth over quanity
I wanted to share this devotion I got today via my email from Max Lucado! “You thrill to God’s Word, you chew on Scripture day and night.” Psalm 1:2 The Message The Bible is not a newspaper to be skimmed but rather a mine to be quarried. Here is a practical point. Study the Bible [...]
Knitted Together-Godly Made
OH this is a great one I just have to share! This is a devotion via my email by Max Lucado: “You knit me together in my mother’s womb.” Psalm 139:13, NIV “Knitted together” is how the psalmist described the process of God making man. Not manufactured or mass-produced, but knitted. Each thread of personality [...]
True wealth
True wealth doesn’t come of this earth, our true wealth is in heaven! A devotion I received from Max Lucado in my email: “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.” Matthew 5:6 NIV We usually get what we hunger and thirst for. The problem is, the treasures of [...]
Long time to boil
This morning this is the email devotion I received from Max Lucado: “Love is patient.” I Corinthians 13:4 The Greek word used here for patient . . . means “taking a long time to boil.” Think about a pot of boiling water . . . Water boils quickly when the flame is high. It boils [...]
Not home yet!
Many times I tell my husband this just doesn’t feel like home, this just doesn’t feel like where we should be, and I got this devotion today from Max Lucado in my email: “Our homeland is in heaven, and we are waiting for our Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, to come from heaven.” Philippians 3:20 [...]
When others reject you
This was a good email devotion I received today from Max Lucado, it really seems to fit the moment when I get these so I know there are not just by chance. “The Lord God is like a sun and shield; the Lord gives us kindness and honor.” Psalm 84:11 Rejections are like speed bumps [...]
Our heartaches and hurts
I follow Kay Arthur in Facebook and she posted this on her wall this afternoon and it just really stood out to me and I wanted to share it here on my blog, so that when I am going through the heartaches and hurts like I am with my father and my daughter, I can [...]
Man shall not live
OH this is another good one today, again this is from my email devotion I receive from Max Lucado! “Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.” Matthew 4:4, NASB Trust God’s Word. Don’t trust your emotions. Don’t trust your opinions. Don’t even trust [...]
