See how God's timing is so perfect...
There were a couple of issues going on with the football team at school the day before this devotion, and the coach told the boys, all you have is each other, we have to stick together as a team and carry one another. I printed this out to share with my son . thanks

I LOVE your "Tips For Marriage" devotion. My husband Dan and I have been married for 33 years, and we have followed all 50 of those points our entire marriage. It was really quite fun to read them and realize that we could have written them! They really do make a difference; 33 years later our love is as strong as it has ever been. The Lord has truly blessed us in our union-and continues to daily. I pray for every marriage to be a union of two who can humble themselves to do these things and be forever happy.

Thanks for sharing this powerful message about empathy. This part of the message ministered to me greatly:
Every limitation you've overcome, every fear you've conquered, has equipped you to help lift somebody else - otherwise they're wasted experiences!
May you have a Blessed and relaxing weekend!
Love,
Linda

This touched my heart. It reminds me how much God loves us that he would bless us through our children and grandchildren whose love is boundless and filled with forgiveness.
Love, Dad

Tim,
I am not certain that you will get this, but I just LOVE these!! God is speaking to me through these devotions. They are just the right encouragement at just the right time...it is amazing how God works...2 months ago these devotions would have most likely been "speed read" and deleted by me (or just deleted with great Christian guilt!!) I am so looking to step out and walk on the water in many ways. I pray for God's help and thank you for your perfect timing. I just thought that it must be the "mid-life crisis" and it turns out to be the voice of God!!!
Seriously...keep up the good work!

This was conformation on what the Pastor of my church teached about in Sunday service.... I'm moved because he's using you and your ministry in a mighty, mighty way. I love being his son. I just wish that I can be more pleasing to him by being more obedient and not letting things upset me. I feel so good to know that I have a Father like no other...
God bless you and your family.

Wishing you and yours a most blessed and peaceful Thanksgiving, Kathy

As I sit here this morning preparing a devotion for my beloved Bobcat girls, I’m thinking of you. All the wonderful material you continue to provide in your devotions is an inspiration to so many. I am ever thankful to have a friend like you who has inspired me and, with God’s help, to be the guiding light that I think our young ladies need today.
Thanks Tim and God’s Blessings for a wonderful day.

Tim,
I just took a quick break from my tasks, here at St. Johns, to read your devo for today because I have such an uneasiness about this election...although I know it is His Will Be Done!
I am going to copy and paste a prayer that my daughter, Diana wrote for
today:
Dear Heavenly Father,
I pray that you guide and protect us today as our nation votes.
Let us know that it is not one person that controls our fate but your hand that guides us.
I pray that you be with everyone and keep them safe no matter the outcome, and let us fix our eyes upon you... for we know that you have great plans for us.
Therefore, strengthen your feeble nation and weak faiths.
So that all we do may glorify you!
In your Son's Holy and Precious Name We Pray Amen
Between your devo and her prayer I have renewed strength... thanks
God's Peace,
Kath

Tim, Today's devotion is a gift from God. He has used you to speak to me as I sit in my wheelchair and ponder my life, past, present and future. What a comfort for me! Tim, never take for granted your role in God's plan. You're a well worn tool in the hands of a Master.

Today, as always, I am thankful for Tim Hetzner who ushers me into God's presence each morning. These daily devotions are a real blessing to me. Thanks, Tim!
