Verses for the day Ezek 3:10-11 Then he added, “Son of man, let all my words sink deep into your own heart first. Listen to them carefully for yourself. Then go to your people in exile and say to them, ‘This is what the Sovereign LORD says!’ Do this whether they listen to you or […]

Verses for the day Thoughts It’s been a couple days since I have written. I started a devo on Wednesday, but didn’t finish it. Sorry. Maybe I’ll try and finish it over the weekend and send it out. This morning I am quite tired. I am starting to notice that if I am doing too […]

Verses for the day Thoughts I love the principle here. They were terrified.. Jesus says don’t be afraid, I am here… the storm continued, but once he was with them, the wind stopped. Shouldn’t that be how it is with us. Even when the storm is raging all around us, if Jesus is with us, […]

Of course, on Thursday I also […]

Verses for the day Jer 15:16 When I discovered your words, I devoured them. They are my joy and my heart’s delight, for I bear your name, O Father, Lord of Heaven’s Armies. Jer 15:19 This is how the LORD responds: “If you return to me, I will restore you so you can continue to […]
