Live Dead: Day 15

Halfway through the Live Dead Journal/Devo and I have to say “Phew!”  Some days are so challenging it can be a bit draining.  At the halfway mark, I thought I’d recap some of the unreached people groups to be praying for since the devotion today was more a recap of some others (Mainly focusing on […]

Live Dead: Day 14

“This generation needs to learn to eat less, sleep less, and pray more.” -Leonard Ravenhill Punched in the gut.  That is what it felt like when I read that quote.  I know there will times I complain because I only got 6 hours of sleep the night before.  Poor me, right?  There are people all […]

Live Dead: Day 13

I woke up early this morning, spent from 6-8am with the kids, then jumped into bed from 8-9 and prayed.  As soon as I got in to the office, I grabbed my live dead journal and was excited to see what the challenge for today was.  After reading it, I’ wasn’t quite as excited.  Today’s […]

Live Dead: Day 12

1 Thessalonians 2:8 “We loved you so much that we shared with you not only God’s Good News but our own lives, too.” As I read today’s entry, I was listening to Hillsong’s Tear Down the Walls, which happened to be the title of this mornings reading.  Near the end, the mention of this verse […]

Live Dead: Day 11

I’m back at the office today making up for some sick days earlier this week, and drinking my first shakeology in months while listening to Rapture Ruckus.  Today’s reading was more informational about the need in Somalia, and how people need to get to the place where you’re ok going somewhere, if God calls you, […]

Live Dead: Day 10

Well it has been awhile since I blogged and did the live dead journal. But as I was reading my Bible and praying this morning 2 friends of mine came to mind. They are currently in Africa, making it possible for interns who want to become missionaries to go. They’re in countries where being a […]

Live Dead: Day 9

If you missed yesterday, Day:8, you can find it here. James 1:2 “Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds.” What would I do if someone were torturing me until I denied Jesus?  That was the thought that I had this morning while I read story after story about people […]

Live Dead: Day 8

Oops!  I went strong for a whole week, got sick, and never restarted the blogging and live dead.  But I am back on it.  I think Proverbs says if you fall 7 times you get up 7 times, so while I may miss here and there, I’m getting back up and will finish this 30 […]

Live Dead: Day 5,6,7

Youth Convention occupied my time so I did devotions, but didn’t blog. Day 5: The topic was spiritual warfare, and had a bunch of information that I’m familiar with.  It was more of a reminder than a challenge.  Finally an area that I didn’t feel totally lacking in.  The unreached people were the Zaghawa. Day […]

Live Dead: Day 4

Be the sacrifice, as opposed to making one.  That sums up today’s devotion, and the story that went along with it was impacting.  There are things: dreams, hopes, desires; that sometimes God asks us to give up.  When we are obedient, the end result will always be better, but not necessarily what we want. Am […]
