    Joyfully Abandoned – a devotional

    August 12, 2019 /

    Editor’s note: This is a guest submission by Ann Grace. She has shared her story before – most recently here. Today’s devotional may be hard to get through as it’s very emotional, but powerful. Thank you, Ann. Is it even possible to be joyful in the midst of feeling abandoned? My life has been filled with my share of feeling abandoned and lonely but these days, I’m once again experiencing it again. My husband of 1 year has left us. No contact. No “I love you”. Nothing. It’s been almost two weeks of pure grief not knowing whether he will come back or file for divorce. I’m angry. I’m confused…

    After the Storm – devotional

    August 5, 2019 /

    Editor’s Note: I thought I would just jump back right into posting devo’s! I have closed submissions for the time being – and you’ll be getting a fresh devotional to read every Monday morning for this fall! This is a guest submission by Heather Ream. This is somewhat of a follow-up to Heather’s previous post about her mom here. Thank you for sharing, Heather! My mom has been living in a nursing home now for a little over a year. Most of the time, she’s stable. I’m blessed to be able to write that. Praise you, Lord. Most of the time, she’s stable. Sometimes, she has a short series of…

    Welcome Little Diva!

    My daughter is here! Her name is Zoey; I’ll probably refer to her as little Z on here though. We had a smooth delivery and both are doing well.  My husband was home and right by my side! She feels like such a special gift from God! Thank you for all your thoughts and prayers as she prepared to come into the world.
