Devotion on Fear, Anxiety, Trust, Comfort, Philippians 4:5b-7. 2 pages.
The Lord is at hand; do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:5b–7).
In today’s world it is very hard to find someone who is not afraid of anything. Most everyone is afraid of something, be it snakes, storms, heights, or loss. What are you afraid of?

Devotion on Advent, Christian Living, Galatians 4:4. 2 pages.
But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons (Galatians 4:4).
Even though we have been redeemed from sin and death through the death and resurrection of our Savior, we still sin. As even the highest-paid professional players sometimes fumble the ball or miss the basket, in the game of life-Christian mode, we too sometimes mess up. Like those erring athletes we need a “time-out.”
The season of Advent can be considered a “time out” for Christians. During this time (as well as during other times of the church year), the Holy Spirit works in us to reset our clocks and to strengthen our faith as we live for Him.
[To prepare: Make a copy of the “T-I-M-E” clock face found at the end of this devotion. Hang on a wall to display. Make copies of the “TREASURE,” “INSPIRE,” “MEDITATE,” and “EVANGELIZE” word cards found at the end of this devotion. Cut out each card. Have adhesive tape ready to attach words to the clock at the proper time in the devotion.]

Devotion on Missions, Isaiah 6:8. 2 pages.
And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” Then I said, “Here am I! Send me” (Isaiah 6:8).
Unlike Isaiah’s eager response, my initial reaction when asked to join a Haiti mission team was “Who, me? I’m a hot-headed, socially clumsy, middle-aged, adult convert from the backwoods. What credentials do I have to offer a team of experienced mission trippers?” I thought.

Devotion on Stress, Psalm 46:10a. 1 page.
“Be still, and know that I am God” (Psalm 46:10a).
As I raced around gathering books and papers for another full day of teaching, my eyes glanced over the wall hanging of Psalm 46:10. Many thoughts rushed through my brain, already frustrated from running late. “Be still? Really? I can’t; there’s so much to do!”

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope (Jeremiah 29:11).
As a new widow, I pondered, “What is my normal?” I asked God questions like “Why was I left here?” and “Do You have a purpose for me?”

Devotion on Relationship with Others, Spiritual Gifts, Diversity, 1 Peter 4:10. 2 pages.
As each one has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace … (1 Peter 4:10).
Each time a new group of women gather together for Bible studies, meetings, or service projects, a unique tapestry is created. Every woman is created by God with unique gifts and talents, personality, strengths, and weaknesses. When we are woven together as sisters in Christ, we strengthen each other. Woven fabric is stronger than individual threads. The beauty of each individual is enhanced by the overall pattern. We are strong and effective when we support each other, appreciating and encouraging women to use their gifts and talents to serve.
