That was me to my friend yesterday ENJOYING a piece of birthday cake at her house. As I sat down at the table to eat alone, I said let me see what God has to say to me through a kids’ devotional there. It was the perfect message, and I shared with my friend why: …

“SMILE IN YOUR SOUL WHEN YOU LOOK AT ME (GOD).”That was my little message from Him a few minutes ago reading my meditation book.
