Teresa, having 2 children under 3 is a very exhausting job in itself and having to battle cancer besides just adds to it. Sometimes it’s a great idea to just have some praise tapes on because they will help you to lift to eyes to the Lord. Most praise songs are words taken directly from the Bible. Enjoy them and relax in God.

~Heavenly Father, I pray that You will put your loving arms around Teresa and just help her to be able to relax in you. Thank you for what you will do in her life. Bring the joy back.
I pray this in Jesus’ powerful name, amen.

A wonderful devotional. I know this to be true but why can’t I get back on track? Lord have mercy.
I also am a relatively new stay at home Mom, I just quit my job in the summer. I have 2 children under 3 years old and a Mom who is battling cancer. I am having a hard time juggling everything and my life does seem chaotic and i am always exhausted. We moved to a new home last year so I lost my old support network as well.
My prayer life is not consistent, never mind reading the word. Now that I should be running to Jesus more than ever I find that I barely have time to pray or read the word, so I try to pray when I’m doing chores and when i do try to open the Word I end up falling asleep.etc. I think I am probably struggling with depression as well. With God’s Grace I know i will get through this time. i have to remind myself to just begin with small steps. Please keep me in your payers. Thanks for listening.

Appreciated today’s devotional. God spoke this messaga to me many years ago through Proverbs 24:30-34

By wisdom a house is built, and through understanding it is established; through knowledge its rooms are filled with rare and beautiful treasures. I went past the field of the sluggard, past the vineyard of the man who lacks judgment; thorns had come up everywhere, the ground was covered with weeds, and the stone wall was in ruins. I applied my heart to what I observed and learned a lesson from what I saw: A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest–and poverty will come on you like a bandit and scarcity like an armed man.

It is always a struggle to get into reading the word when you are caught up with other responsibilities, or make it the excuse not to open your bible . It is a good reminder to seek ye the kingdom of God and all things shall be added unto to you. What a joy to hear from God from His word. It is amazing how we find hope and wisdom all from His word. God empower us all to read His word and choose to entrust and trust Him with all of ourselves and our present circumstances.

We are all so blessed to have this website. Thank you Lord for providing this network of Christian women who love your word enough to start their day with this opportunity for devotion and prayer. All of you ladies who write in and share your spritual experiences are such an inspriation to me…you are God’s angels in my life, keeping Him close, even though I don’t know you! God bless you all!

This yr. has started out so badly for our family. Bankruptcy, I lost my job, moving to a new house, health issues with me. And God does seem so far away and that is probably because my Bible is in my car and has been for a few weeks.
At these times I did blame God for seemingly forsaking me when it was me forsaking Him. Forgive me Lord.
What a wonderful devotional this was for me this morning.
As though it was written with me in mind. Praise God for the way He works in our lives.
Because He lives-Tracy

Sometimes it not just business that keeps us away from the word. Sometimes it can be physical pain, which can make it hard to focus. I just keep at it knowing that God blesses our efforts…..sometimes in ways we could never imagine!
Chris, isn`t it wonderfull to have someone come along side of us. Yours is helping you get started reading the Bible. Mine, a sweet lady named Lois, taught me that when -life happens-& I missed a day or more, don`t try to catch up,…which can discourage us to the point fo quiting all togeather…just continue where you left off!.So just keep at it…& watch for the blessing….

These daily devotionals are great. I read them before starting my day and God gives me the strength and patience I need daily to have a blessed day. Even sometimes if I have a bad day I’m still blessed that in time it turns out alright. What a beautiful feeling to have Christ in my life daily every minute and to always put him first and
priority in my life over all. I pray daily that God can touch and bless me to an excellent, faithful, and obedient servant for him. Blessings to all!
