It Is Well With My Soul

I love the old timeless hymns with their biblical foundations don't you?
They remind me of God's faithfulness and always bring comfort.

I hope you like this version of this hymn.

"When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say,
It is well with my soul."

Praying this leads you past what difficulty may be in front of you,
that you may feel the touch of your Master's hand,
hear the song of your Creator's call,
and give Him praise.

A Man Who Flatters, and A Man Who Compliments

San Luis Obispo Retreat

We need to teach our daughters to distinguish between:
A man who flatters her, and a man who compliments her.
A man who spends money on her, and a man who invests in her.
A man who views her as property, and a man who views her properly.
A man who who lusts after her, and a man who loves her.
A man who believes he is God's gift to a woman,
and a man who remembers a woman was God's gift to man.

Prayer

"The great tragedy in life is not unanswered prayer
but unoffered prayer."

Devotion:
Investing In Relationships

Someone today needs your steady hand,
someone today would be blessed to hear your voice.
Someone today would be encouraged to know that you are praying for them,
will you give that someone a call?
Remind them that they are loved!

"Two can accomplish more than twice as much as one,
for the results can be much better."
Ecc. 3:9

And not just any ornament,

If you look for Me at Christmas

"If you look for me at Christmas, you won't need a special star, I'm no longer in Bethlehem, I'm right there where you are. You may not be aware of Me amid the celebration, you'll have to look beyond the stores and all the decorations. But if you take a moment from your list of things to do, and listen to your heart, you'll find I'm waiting there for you. You're the one I want to be with, you're the reason that I came, and you'll find Me in the stillness as I'm whispering your name." ~Your Savior, Jesus Christ
