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…

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…

God to my Rescue
September 3, 2022 Dear God, good morning. Yesterday was an emotional day. I started reading my Dear God letter to Terri. Tears of sadness poured down my face like a waterfall. I know it is okay to cry. But the tears seem to have been locked up for years. I never cried as much as I do with Terri. Reading to Terri, my letters are mostly about my relationship with you, Jesus, and I’m learning just to be a child of God. I needed to write to you every morning. I look forward to writing to you, Jesus. I’m working on my fourth step, which states in the Twelve and Twelve…

Faith in Everyday Life
August 24, 2022 Dear God, good morning. Today is about faith. In Today’s reading from God’s Promises for every day, writes, “What to when you feel discouraged?” Sometimes I do feel a little bit discouragement. My husband and I can’t live together until we buy a two-family house. The rent for an apartment is three thousand dollars a month near Boston. Because we can’t afford rent, purchasing a two-family home is the only way out of the rental madness. But I believe you, Jesus, will help us find a house close to the trains. The book also says, “But the purity of your faith will bring praise and glory and…

Surrender Your Will
August 22, 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 turn over to you, Jesus. I turn my addiction to alcohol over to you, sweet Jesus. I have not done a very good job making plans in my life. 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…

Spiritual Awakening in Progress
August 21, 2022 Dear God, good morning. Thank you for Jeanne. She’s a love bug and looks a little like Joan Jet. Yesterday, Jeanne was worried and felt something terrible, and she texted me, “Answer your phone.” Jeanne is so funny. Then she called me. We spoke for forty-five minutes. I love spending time with Jeanne. Her humor is laughable; she speaks her mind and doesn’t hold back. She’s adorable and lovable too. Thank you for Jeanne. She lives a beautiful spiritual life. Today’s reading from God’s Promises is about coming closer to God daily. It writes, “Then Jesus said, “I’ am the bread that gives life. Whoever comes…
