More devotions from Judy’s heart,,, This morning I read from Eph 5 about “giving thanks always and for everything” and truly this is exemplified in the lives of these nuns. . They were so excited about coming to Canaan and have tried to fit it into their schedules for 4 years. They were like calves…
More devotions from Judy’s heart. I think we hear so much today about TIME and we all seem busy and pressed for time. But there is enough time to do what God has for us to do and He wants to arrange our schedules. Recently we were getting a retreatant but another person stopped over…
Another devotion from Judy’s heart, I hope you don’t mind. How we respond to difficult circumstances says a lot about us and our relationship to the Lord. When things get tough do we get bitter and complain or do we know that He is with us and will see us through? We are back from…

Devotions based on Kenneth Boa’s book, Conformed to His Image James Mc Conkey said that, “Faith is dependence on God. And this God-dependence only begins when self-dependence ends. And self-dependence only comes to its end, with some of us, when sorrow, suffering, affliction, broken plans and hopes bring us to that place of self-helplessness and…
Devotions based on Kenneth Boa’s book, Conformed to His Image Without Christ we are out of harmony with God and life is all about our selves as we use people, things, and circumstances to meet our needs. But in Christ we are in harmony with God and life is all about Him who has already…
