    Devotions from Judy’s heart Next week we are going to the Dr. for our annual check ups. We feel fine but that isn’t always an accurate measurement of what is going on in our bodies. Some time ago, my Dr. ordered a DEXA Scan, even though I was exercising and felt great. It showed that…

    Devotions from Judy’s heart, Today I read from Ps. 4:5 about putting our trust in the Lord. Then when I went to my devotional book, “Jesus Calling,” the word for today was the same. Don’t you love when the Lord does that? He wants to be sure we get what He is saying. The author…

    Devotions from Judy’s heart My dad loved nature and every tree was important to him. At his funeral my brother Paul made reference to when he and my uncle cut down a small tree behind the outhouse and tried to cover up. But dad found out and was disappointed they took down a live tree. …

    Devotions from Judy’s heart I think my dad’s passing has prompted deep things inside of me. It has reminded me that time is short and each day is a gift to be used and savored. I need to live in the present moment and not rush through many activities and multitasking. Instead of lingering over…

    Devotions from Judy’s heart Yesterday was a day of His grace and blessing as we celebrated dad’s life.  I think who he was, was portrayed well at the funeral. In Rev. 14:13 it says, “Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on…they will rest from their labor, for their deeds will…
