Comments by others:
  • It brought tears to my eyes. So powerful. Thank you.

  • My husband fell and broke his neck and back and he died as a result of those injuries January 14, 2013. One year later I found your website and I don't start my day without reading your post first. Today your post is helping a woman I used to work with, her husband was murdered six weeks ago. It was your post that kept me close to Christ even though I'm a practicing Catholic. Your prayer today is essential since yesterday she said she would never do it; but she wish that she would just die. On behalf of both of these widows, God bless you for your posts that offer hope, inspiration and wisdom. It helps to get us out of bed and keep us going.

  • I have to tell you that for the last 6 weeks especially your daily word of encouragement have been right on the mark. It is as if you are writing it just for me. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your encouragement and support. Times are tough right now and I am dealing with many snares and struggles. I know that God is Lord of all and that he knows my faults and temptations. As I ask for guidance He seems to send me words through you. Thank you for this ministry.
