Don't Be a Slacker!
As I was praying about what the Lord Jesus would have me write this evening, for I knew he was giving me another devotional to write, he put in my mind this passage of scripture found in Proverbs 6:6 (KJV): “Go to the ant, thou sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise.” “A sluggard is a...- Sue J Love

More Than Words
Do you ever feel as though God has allowed you to go through difficulties, trials, and tribulations so that you feel his heart? So that, when he speaks, you get his words, down deep into the very depths of your soul, because you have experienced, to some extent, what God has or is experiencing...- Sue J Love

Something Skipped
Have you found yourself in a spiral of sin, confess, sin, confess, sin, confess, but you never seem to progress past that?

Outside the Box
Has God ever called you to do something, or to a ministry, which was “outside the box”? To something unconventional by human standards?

Not in Freedom!
My heart is burdened. Why is it so burdened? Because so many Christians, or professing Christians, are walking (living) in sin and not in freedom! The Lord Jesus led me to read Galatians 5 (Select vv. ESV). For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a...- Sue J Love

Vain Worship
God would rather the doors of our churches be shut than for us to offer up shallow forms of worship and praise to him, which may stir the emotions, but not produce changed hearts, minds, and lives for Jesus Christ. It is better to have no sacrifices, than to have vain ones (See: Malachi 1:10)...- Sue J Love

The Lord Jesus led me to read Hebrews 2 (Select vv. ESV).

Please Don't Hate Me!
Please don’t hate me because I think differently from you on some things, or because I don’t celebrate Jesus Christ in all the same ways in which you do, or because my understanding of what scripture teaches may be a little bit different from yours.
