AND NOW...THE FIRST DEVOTION:
75 Candles
Have you taken an inventory of what’s important in your life? Birthdays are a great time to reflect and look forward. Imagine you were blowing out 75 candles on your birthday cake. What would you want to have accomplished by then?
Before Bill and I were married, I never would have imagined the Lord would use my husband and me so dramatically. God guided us to start Campus Crusade for Christ, an organization that has become a worldwide ministry with more than half a million workers.
Our goal from the beginning was to put God first in our lives and do all we planned for His honor and glory.
So, dear one, let me ask: Have you let God be the center of your life goals? Are you willing to let Him use you? Ask God today to take over every area of what you do. He will do a marvelous work with your life too.
Whether we are here in this body or away from this body, our goal is to please him (2 Corinthians 5:9).
This I Believe
You can never go wrong putting
God first in everything.

I love this little book. This small, yet thick book is filled with wonderful devotions for women. They are short, yet sweetly inspiring and tied to the truth of Scripture. Each page includes a scripture, message, and affirmation. This book would make a great gift for any woman walking with God. The front cover is attractive and the book addresses such a wide range of topics that anyone can benefit from using it.
5 out of 5 stars
Thanks to Harvest House Publishers for my review copy. I was not paid for this review and the opinions are my own.
