"WALK WITH ME in the freedom of forgiveness. The path we follow together is sometimes steep and slippery. If you carry a burden of guilt on your back, you are more likely to stumble and fall. At your request, I will remove the heavy load from you and bury it at the foot of the cross. When I unburden you, you are undeniably free! Stand up straight and tall in My Presence, so that no one can place more burdens on your back. Look into My Face and feel the warmth of My Love-Light shining upon you. It is this unconditional Love that frees you from both fears and sins. Spend time basking in the Light of My Presence. As you come to know Me more and more intimately, you grow increasingly free."
Psalm 68:19; 1 John 1:7-9; 1 John 4:18
Jesus Calling is a fabulous book by Sarah Young that is filled with daily devotions for every day of the year. This book was given to me by my amazing and wonderful mother and helps me get back on track when I have let worldly things consume my life. Creating this blog is a way of reaching out to others, as well as expressing my thoughts on the day's devotion; how it pertains to my life, my experiences with the words written and their meaning, how I have been affected, etc.
Knock, Knock!
Like any human, I fall off track sometimes when life becomes overwhelming and complicated; forgetting to seek Him and His amazing guidance only to grovel for His forgiveness in being absent to His presence. I am greatly rewarded by blessings of many different kind.
God does not forget me, or you, no matter what goes on or has happened in your life or the world. I hope these daily devotions can help others as much as they have helped me.
For anyone who may be reading this, please do not post comments (or try to) bashing myself or my religious beliefs. I am not out there seeking you out for your differences to try and debate them. I respect that everyone is different, everyone has different religions and beliefs and I completely respect them for that as they have that right. I have been down many different roads in my young life, and this is what I have chosen because I feel it with every beat of my heart. I just ask that it be respected.

This book was given to me by 2 of my sisters about 4 months before my wife suddenly passed. it has been an immense support for me as EVERY day seems like it is written just for me and just at the proper time for me to need it. I thank God for the inspiration He gave Sarah. Amazing. duane
