But Victory Seems So Far Away

Happy Monday!  It’s a good day to have a good day! If you are like me, you start out every new week with the determination to make it a GREAT week.  And then… life happens.  That perfect day gets lost in changed appointments, sick dogs, broken appliances, burned dinners and whatever else life may throw […]

No Such Thing As Failure

Happy DP Day. Wherever you are!   It is definitely summer.  It is hot and we have people going in every direction!  Whether you are home, gone for a season or just gone for a while, it can be difficult to stay on track.  For me, it is always a challenge if I am at […]

No Condemnation

One very important aspect of our DP meetings is “No Condemnation”.  We are not in the judging business and not a single one of us can do that.  We are a bunch of imperfect people serving a perfect God! We are a “secretive” group.  What happens in DP, stays in DP.  It is very important […]

Everything we have belongs to God, We are His stewards.

Everything we have belongs to God, We are His stewards. Stewardship is taught by Jesus in so many ways.

Relying on God

Happy Monday! I loved this article as soon as I read it. Have you ever felt crushed or overwhelmed?  I have gotten down on my knees and begged God to help me, or others.  I have begged for forgiveness and guidance.  Sometimes, no matter what we do, it just isn’t enough. Finally, I realized that […]
