Live Inside Your Heart
'Inspiration For You' from Randy Mitchell

Not long ago, I submitted this quote on my social media accounts, "If you're going to write, do it with your heart, not with your head."

Voice of the Lord
Devotional for 'Teves 07'

If there was ever anyone in need of a second chance from God, it was Yonah (Jonah). Having ignored the express command of God to go and preach to Ninveh (Nineveh), he ran in the opposite direction and ended up in the belly of a big fish.

Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer

The way to the kingdom is rough and rugged, our strength is often small, and our fears are very many. But if we are justified by grace, sanctified by the Spirit of truth, and pursue a consistent course, there is no doubt of our safe arrival at our Father's house; for "the righteous shall…
