Discover Joy Through Forgiveness

1-minute devotion for Tuesday, 9/30/25

“Oh, what joy for those
    whose disobedience is forgiven,
    whose sins are put out of sight.
Yes, what joy for those
    whose record the Lord has cleared of sin.” Romans 4:7-8 NLT

Those who trust and follow Jesus can have this immeasurable joy!

Finding Joy in Trials

Sunday’s Memory Verse, 7/6/25

“Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.” James 1:2-4

Comments: We like to think of ourselves as mature Christians. Or, at least we want to be one. This is how that happens: Trusting God and what He has said in times of difficulty.

In His Love, Cindy

The God of all Comfort

1 minute read

Sunday’s Memory Verse, 2/2/25

“When I said, “My foot is slipping,”
    your unfailing love, Lord, supported me.
 When anxiety was great within me,
    your consolation brought me joy.” Psalm 94:18-19 NIV

The Hebrew word “tanchum” refers to comfort or consolation, often in the context of providing solace during times of distress or mourning. It embodies the act of offering emotional support and reassurance, reflecting a deep sense of empathy and compassion.

When anxiety is great within us, God Himself will comfort us if we look to Him. There is no better comfort than that.

In His Love, Cindy
