This is another old story, but it addresses well the fact that there are some people God listens to more than he does others. In case you didn’t know that, it’s true. In fact, it’s very true.
As a very young Christian, 26 years ago, I went to my boss, Roger, who was mainly responsible for my [...]

Here’s another one that got emailed to me. I have some comments at the end about what I like about this one.

In your presence is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures foreveremore. ~Ps. 16:11
I don’t know how much there is to say here, but I do wonder how many of us believe this. Do we really believe that the fullness of joy is in his presence? Do we really believe there are pleasures [...]

Simply put, it works.
Pain-Free Living can literally be life-changing.
Don't get surgery! Read Carpal Tunnel Syndrome first!. Only $9.95, which is beyond a good price; it's a gift from heaven.
