Devotions

"Only fear the LORD and serve Him in truth with all your heart; for consider what great things He has done for you.” 1 Samuel 12:24

I have only recently started writing devotions, and I have found myself jotting a few notes or ideas as the days and weeks go by. So many times it is in my daily activities in life that I find my topics. The writing has also become a form of prayer for me.  As I am writing I find recalling a particular event that inspired the topic and prayer I am again praying to God. I find myself praying that my writings inspire, comfort and yes, just even make sense to those who read them. I pray that I can find the right passage from the Bible. I even pray that my spelling and grammar is correct so as not to lose the meaning of my thoughts. I pray for inspiration. I thank God for being in my life not only at this time but during those events. 

Prayer: Thank you, God, for this opportunity, your guidance; and may my words and thoughts inspire others to share. May your many blessings continue to guide me, teach me, and help me spread your peace and love. Amen
