Spread the Good News

1-minute devotion for Friday, 12/19/25

“Most importantly, I want to remind you that in the last days scoffers will come, mocking the truth and following their own desires. They will say, “What happened to the promise that Jesus is coming again?”

“But you must not forget this one thing, dear friends: A day is like a thousand years to the Lord, and a thousand years is like a day. The Lord isn’t really being slow about his promise, as some people think. No, he is being patient for your sake. He does not want anyone to be destroyed, but wants everyone to repent.” 2 Peter 3:3-4a and 3:8-9 NLT Read full chapter

My thoughts: Now is the time to spread the Good News, while Jesus tarries.

Keep Planting Those Seeds!

1-minute devotion for Monday, 12/15/25

“What, after all, is Apollos? And what is Paul? Only servants, through whom you came to believe—as the Lord has assigned to each his task. I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God has been making it grow.” 1 Corinthians 3:5-6 NIV (emphasis mine)

My Thoughts: Keep planting seeds because it is God who will make them grow. If you know very worldly people, figuring out how to share the Gospel can be overwhelming. Maybe they are neighbors or co-workers you care about. May this verse encourage you to keep planting seeds! Pray that the Lord will make them grow!

Embracing Gratitude

1-minute devotion for Thursday, November 27, 2025

“Rejoice always,  pray continually,  give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

My thoughts: Mourning for what we have lost will not bring joy, but being thankful every day for all that we do have will bring us joy!

Have a happy and joyful Thanksgiving!

“Precious in the Sight of God”

Quote of the Week for 11/12/25

“Gratitude is an offering precious in the sight of God, and it is one that the poorest of us can make and be not poorer but richer for having made it.”

The Importance of Truth

1-minute devotion for Friday, 11/7/25

“But the time is coming—indeed it’s here now—when true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth. The Father is looking for those who will worship him that way.  For God is Spirit, so those who worship him must worship in spirit and in truth.” John 4:23-24 NLT Read full chapter

My thoughts: Have you ever noticed how often the Bible emphasizes the importance of truth? (In case you’re wondering, it’s over 380 times depending on the translation!)

Choose Whom You Will Serve

1-minute devotion for Monday, 11/3/25

“…choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve…But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.” Joshua 24:15

These stirring words are from Joshua’s last sermon to the people before he died at age 110. May this be the cry of our hearts as well.

“as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.”

The Joy of Cheerful Giving

1-minute devotion for Sunday, 11/2/25

“You must each decide in your heart how much to give. And don’t give reluctantly or in response to pressure. “For God loves a person who gives cheerfully. And God will generously provide all you need. Then you will always have everything you need and plenty left over to share with others.” 2 Corinthians 9:7-8 NLT

When we give, we participate in the ministry we are supporting. May God guide us and give us discernment in giving.

In His Love, Cindy

Reflecting on God’s Creation

1-minute devotion for 10/26/25

“When I consider your heavens,
    the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
    which you have set in place,
 what is mankind that you are mindful of them,
    human beings that you care for them?” Psalm 8:3-4

Facts you may not know:  

  1. Every star you see in the night sky is bigger and brighter than our sun! (according to NASA)
  2. Astronomers estimate that the universe could contain up to one septillion stars – that’s a one followed by 24 zeros.

How great is our God!

Finding Hope: A Personal Testimony

1-minute devotion for Tuesday, 10/21/25

“I waited patiently for the Lord;
    he turned to me and heard my cry.
 He lifted me out of the slimy pit,
    out of the mud and mire;
he set my feet on a rock
    and gave me a firm place to stand.” Psalm 40:1-2 NIV

I remember the first time I read these verses and the awe I felt knowing this was my testimony. In one of my oldest Bibles, it was dated 1984, 1986, and 1988. God’s Word is alive and active. (Hebrews 4:12)

1-minute devotion for Monday, 10/20/25

“I seek you with all my heart;
    do not let me stray from your commands.
 I have hidden your word in my heart
    that I might not sin against you.” Psalm 119:10-11 NIV Read full chapter

May our hearts be a storehouse of God’s Word so that the Holy Spirit can bring to mind the verses necessary for our guidance.
