Devotions from Judy’s heart We all have need of discernment and to listen to the spirit. There are times we sense something is not quite right even though we may not know the specifics. The other day I was vacuuming and it didn’t seem to be picking up well. I had checked underneath the day…

I have been reading a fascinating book by Tanya Luhrmann entitled “When God talks back: Understanding the American Evangelical Relationship with God.” Luhrmann is a professor of anthropology at Stanford.

Devotions from Judy’s heart I read in Ps. 92, “You have made me glad by your work; at the work of your hands I sing for joy.” Often as I go on my prayer walk I marvel at what God has made for me to enjoy. Just the other day as I was walking on…

Devotions from Judy’s heart Yesterday a friend and I planted seeds of carrots, lettuce, radishes, spinach, Kohlrabi, onions, and beets in our joint garden. By faith I believe these seeds will produce, but for now, they are in good soil and being exposed to the sun and rain as we patiently wait. Each seed has…

Devotions from Judy’s heart It is the little things that we are given to enjoy that we often overlook and take for granted. I wanted to share what I received about Lisa Beamer – If you remember, she’s the wife of Todd Beamer who said ‘Let’s Roll!’ and helped take down the plane over Pennsylvania that…

Devotions from Judy’s heart, We all make mistakes and I made one the other day that was so disappointing. I was excited as I wrote several devotionals after I came back from a prayer walk and felt “inspired.” But I’m not sure where in the process of copying, pasting and printing it happened, but the…
