Don’t Let the Enemy Steal Your Joy

May 23, 2016 by Debbie 11 Comments

Don't let the enemy steal your joy today. He'll try you know. You may not even realize it until it's too late. From the moment your feet hit the floor, he'll do all that he can to distract you, to overwhelm you, to frustrate you, and to stir up worry and strife.

8 Powerful Promises of God from Psalm 91

May 16, 2016 by Debbie 15 Comments

We trudged slowly back to the car through a crowded parking lot in the Texas summer heat. Hot, humid, full sun bearing down.

Finding God in the Chaos: 13 Verses of Peace to Guard Our Hearts and Minds in Him

April 20, 2016 by Debbie 10 Comments

Grabbed my Bible early one morning to head outside and spend a few moments of quiet watching the sunrise. Felt a strong sense to read the day's devo from my Jesus Calling book. But couldn't find it. Anywhere. May have unpacked it from a recent trip or it got buried somewhere under clutter from the week of homework, backpacks, and life. So instead of wasting more time looking for it, I looked for … [Read more...] about Finding God in the Chaos: 13 Verses of Peace to Guard Our Hearts and Minds in Him
