Jesus is the Answer
September 26. 2022 Dear God, good morning. Today’s reading from God’s Promises says, “Jesus is the answer.” And though him you receive the Grace of God. It writes, “But he said to me, My grace is enough for you. When you are weak, my power is made perfect in you. So I am thrilled to brag about my weakness. Then Jesus Christ power can live in me.” 2 Corinthians 12:9 I can say that I feel relief that you have always been there for me my whole life. I refused you, Jesus, and I’m sorry. I was a rebel at the age of twelve, and the Department of Youth Services…

Forgiveness Comes From God
September 21, 2022 Dear God, good morning. Today’s topic is powerful. The book God’s Promises for every day writes, “Jesus is your Forgiveness” I was spiritually dead coming back to the fellowship in two thousand and sixteen. My soul felt empty, and my heart has broken into thousands of pieces. I had no forgiveness for anyone in my life. I lived in a world of hate. I hated my biological parents for physically, mentally, and sexually hurting me. It has taken me my whole life to forgive my parents. I hated my parents. It had a firm hold on me, but I forgave my father, who said he…

Peace of God
September 20, 2022 Dear God, good morning. Today’s reading is about Jesus being your Peace. And the Father of Jesus states, “But now in Christ Jesus, you who were far away from God are brought near through the blood of Christ’s death. Christ himself is our Peace. I was far away from you, Jesus, because I did not understand your “Peace” The Peace I feel is genuinely happy in my heart. But there was a time I would not believe in you. I was arrogant, selfish, self-righteous, too proud, and self-absorbed in my career. I was a fallen down piss my pants drunk. I had no peace. When I was…

Hope and the Holy Spirit

I am always looking forward to writing to you, and I receive joy when I do to you write. God, there has been a special bond we have together since last year. I can’t explain it, but getting to know you, Jesus is a wonderful feeling. You came to me when I cried out for you and held me until I stopped weeping. I felt the warmth of your arms around me. I did not know what was happening to me. Only…

God and Armor
September 12, 2022 Dear God, good morning. Today’s reading from God’s Promises for every day writes about the devil. Oh boy, the book says to wear armor against the devil who is lurking around to steal our souls. But according to God, we wear the armor of God. The book writes, “Put on the whole armor of God so that you can fight against the devil’s tricks… That’s why you need to put on God’s full armor. Then on the day of evil, you will be able to stand firm. And when you have finished the entire fight, you will be standing strong…To do this, you must always be ready…

Faith and Tragedy
September 11, 2022 Dear God, good morning. I’m up early again and can’t sleep. Today’s topic is faith. Today marks twenty-one years since the Twin Towers were destroyed, and thousands of lives were lost that day. It was such a sad day for our Country, and I still get emotional about that day. I came home and cried when I saw the planes hit the towers. I was teaching in Hamilton, Massachusetts, and we had terrified parents coming into the daycare to pick up their children on that day. My prayers go out to the families still suffering from that horrible day. Today, Gary and I are…

Depression Versus God
September 10, 2022 Good Morning, Dear God. Today I don’t even want to write to you. My stupid depression has gotten worst. I need to call my psychiatrist Monday morning. I wrote you a long letter this morning and lost it on my computer. I trust in you, Jesus, to lift the agony of this depression today. You always come to my rescue, and thank you. My little Bible says, “What to do when you feel depressed?” God, I know you hear my cry for help. I feel empty on the inside of my soul. My heart feels broken. I feel despondent and lack faith today. I need your Spirit…

Spiritual Fulfillment
September 9, 2022 Dear God, good morning. Today’s reading from God’s promises for every day writes, “What you can do to Count Your Blessings.” I feel so blessed by you, Jesus. The blessing you give me fills me up spiritually. My spirit sings with joy. As the Scripture says, “Anyone who trusts in him will never be disappointed.” The Scripture says “anyone” because there is no difference between those who are Jews and those who are not. The same Lord is the Lord of all and gives many blessings to all who trust in him. The Scripture says, “Anyone who calls on the Lord will be saved..”Romans 10:11 -13 I…

Surrender to God
August 18, 2022 Dear God, good morning. Today’s reading of the Life Recovery Pray Devotional book discusses “Making God Laugh.” It writes, “If you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans.” I have always been a control freak to protect myself from people. My plans I surrender to you, Jesus. I turn my addiction to alcohol over to you. I have not done an excellent job making plans for myself. The same book writes, “Commit your actions to the Lord, and your plans will succeed. Proverbs 16:3 We have a saying in our fellowship, “I can’t, He can, I will let him.” Turning my will and life over to…
