Comments by others:
  • My life has been turned upside down. It’s very frightening and sometimes I feel like God has abandoned me, but I know that is only a feeling and is not true. With these devotionals it’s as if the Lord Himself is tapping me on the shoulder and telling me exactly what I need to hear each morning with encouragement.

  • This devotional hit the nail on the head! You Rock Pastor Dion!!!

  • Sometimes don't even have energy to read ur emails. But that and whatever I can grasp on to gives me hope. My prayers at times are simple god please help me. And he is. I see it all around. Even just by this email when it is darkest he is the light. I try to choose to focus and give meaning to positives. Thank you. Ur keeping me alive. ~Jim
