Devotions from Judy’s heart Isn’t it easy to get attached to things so that we miss the new the Lord has for us? Maybe it is a certain way He seems to relate to us, and all of a sudden it changes, and it no longer “works’!  I still remember when the way I had…

Devotions from Judy’s heart Yesterday Mark’s family and Kurt’s family left and we have Ann’s family here now for a couple more weeks. It was wonderful to all be together!  Before they came I tried to put many dishes and baked goods in the freezer. With 3 different diets and 12 miles to the store,…

Devotions from Judy’s heart If you got the picture I sent of our whole family at meal time, you will see that we are not so fussy about everything being perfect. With some sitting at the cluttered counter, some at a little children’s table and others at the big table, it looks rather messy. But…

Devotions from Judy’s heart Today I read in Matt. 19 about how Jesus did not want the little children hindered but to come to him as He laid his hands on them and blessed them.  We have all 7 of our grandkids with us now and our desire is to bless them. Each one is…

Devotions from Judy’s heart Today I read from Prov. 3 and 4 of a father who wants to parent his child like the Lord’s parenting.  He wants his son to accept his words and go the way of wisdom, that same wisdom that went back through many generations. “ My son, do not despise the…

Devotions from Judy’s heart While working in the kitchen at Kurt’s I got a stain on a shirt I happen to like.  When I washed it, it came out with the stain just as prominent as before. Since it had gone in the dryer too, I felt it was futile to wash it again and…

Devotions from Judy’s heart The other day while our relatives were gathered at the Point, I drove our car over to join them. But in the middle of the road was a pail used to get water from the well. I had no idea why it was there and had to get out of the…
