The devotional, the word for you today, I just love it. I get it in my inbox every morning and that's how I start my day is looking at your devotional. I find that God meets me where I'm at with those devotionals, like God continually surprises me through those devotionals. It's like he's speaking to me through those devotionals. And he's he's basically just saying, you know, that I'm with you. I understand the things that you're going through, whatever. And it amazes me how many times as soon as I read the title of the day for the devotional. It's like, ohh. I needed to read that today. So it's it's amazing how God has worked through those devotional.

Hope is what gives me strength and peace by trusting in God, knowing how much He loves me, and each and every one of us. Hope is like a light, giving brightness to a day.

We lost my sister about 12 years ago now and there was a song that just came on the radio and it was just hit me. Praise the Lord, Oh my soul. And then the ending there where it says that, you know, “when my time has come, still my soul will be praising.” And my sister was a newly convert. And I know where she is because, you know, of her aversion to Christ and how she, you know, asked for forgiveness and--and God came into her heart, and it was very evident. And I know that, you know, she is with the Lord right now and someday I'll see her again. And that song was just so, so encouraging to my soul. So that was wonderful.
