Dear Friends,
It’s been a while since I’ve sent a devotional. So sorry about that. In a way, I have been feeling a bit “weighed down” by several issues. Life is just that way isn’t it? However, we do have a Savior who gently calls us to Him with all our problems, big and small. God never said He’d solve our problems for us, although sometimes He does, but rather, Christ’s grace, mercy and power is enough to see us through whatever we’re facing. We are not alone! So, no matter what, “rejoice in the Lord, be joyful in God our Savior”. Peace and Love! Scott

Habakkuk 3:17-19 17 Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls,18 yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Savior. 19 The Sovereign LORD is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to go on the heights. For the director of music. On my stringed instruments.
