Faith

Body It is my week to do a devotion on Monday night. As usual, I am seeking God and searching the Bible. I want to know what, He wants me to say. I don’t want to just fill up time. I want to be a blessing to someone. I want to encourage someone. Soon, I had settled on hope.

Body I stepped out on the back porch, to get the mop. Shaking it, I made sure there were no lizards or spiders hiding in the strings. I remembered the time that my granddaughter had unknowingly brought a lizard into the house.

Body A man was once shut up in a prison, loaded with chains, and condemned to be hung. He had been taken a prisoner in a war by a cruel tyrant and knew that there was no hope for him if he could not in some way make his escape.
