Comment Highlights from the week of February 14th.

Forgive Yourself

• Thank you for reminding me that I do need to “forgive myself”. Yes, I know God has forgiven me and His mercy endures forever. But when I see my youngest son hurting so, because of the poor choices I made when he was a child it breaks my heart. He is 46 years old. I am thankful for God’s mercy and forgiveness and I’m trusting Him to redeem my child. Thank you for your devotionals. – Laura

• Oh but to know those clear boundaries in all decisions…how simpler it would be but alas, the Lord did not promise it would be easy…but He did promise He would be there with us through all things. Thank you for this word…excellent reminders!  -Phyllis
• Boyd,  You have an incredible gift of developing a biblical response to so many of life’s themes. And, your journal always carries some new way to consider these themes and respond to life and to God.  Sometimes surprising; sometimes difficult; always good.  Thank you.    -Jerry

God’s Favor

• I really needed this today. I am a married wife and mother of two sons. My older son is an atheist despite his Christian upbringing, my younger son is also extremely defiant. I have been feeling so alone and guilty lately questioning every parenting move I have made. My husband is a very successful business executive who travels quite frequently and doesn’t have much of a voice with our sons and much sensitivity at times for me. I feel like I have allowed everyone to become extremely spoiled and selfish because I made the mistake of serving them first instead of God.  I will continue to read this message time and again for encouragement and guidance from the Lord. Thank you.    – Rachael
