His Last Thought Was Of You

March 11, 2016 by Jeff Davidson 1 Comment

  He was the last thought I had before I left. All the preparation, all the plans, and all the instructions—everything had been leading to this moment. I kept thinking of all the “what-ifs’” and running them through my mind over and over.

The Small Things

March 28, 2013 by Jolene Philo 7 Comments

Parenting a child with special needs is a big thing, sometimes an overwhelming thing. Those big things can keep us from seeing and appreciating the small things God uses to draw us close to him. With Easter fast approaching, may God use this devotion and your life as the parent of a child with special needs to fix your eyes upon the glory of the cross. For who has despised the day of small … [Read more...]
