Devotions from Judy’s heart On Friday I made a call to Linnea as I had wanted to bring over a meal after her surgery but got their answering machine. I thought she hadn’t come home from the hospital yet, so later in the day I walked over to her house to water her plants. And…

   Devotions from Judy’s heart Yesterday I took a prayer walk to the Point and sat on the dock. It was a beautiful sunny day and as I sat there with my feet in the water, I was reminded of how I use to do that as a child.  I could see the beginnings of…

Devotions from Judy’s heart Yesterday the sun was shining as I took my prayer walk and decided to walk the labyrinth at my cousins. Since the snow has gone, I have not done that, and it felt right to slow down and just take some moments to be quiet and pray. As I walked the…

Devotions from Judy’s heart Yesterday at our Renewal group we were in Romans 8 and talked about living the Spirit filled life.   “It is that very Spirit bearing witness with our spirit that we are children of God”.  We shared instances when we just knew that it was the Lord and felt led by the…

  Devotions from Judy’s heart This morning I read from Ps. 112 about how the godly man who fears the Lord is generous, righteous, trusting, gracious, merciful, just, etc. It says that his offspring will be blessed and mighty in the land!  As I read this Psalm I thought of my dad and mom who…

Devotions from Judy’s heart Before we left on our trip, I walked to our garden and saw that a few of the veggies were peeking out of the soil. Not in every row but I was delighted to see growth in several rows. When we first planted, we had to wait in faith that our…

Devotions from Judy’s heart Today I read from Ps. 107: “Oh give thanks to the Lord for He is good…He satisfies the longing soul, and the hungry soul, He fills with good things,”  Do we believe He is good and gifts us with good things, even when we go through a loss?   When I was…

Devotions from Judy’s heart, Yesterday I went to our veggie garden as I hadn’t been there for 8 days due to our trip. What a disappointment as it was full of weeds. I had just weeded before we left and it looked so good and now it was peppered with weeds. It doesn’t take long…
