Nothing Wasted
Hey, Doug Dial here with two or three minutes of hope. On the way to and from work I pass by a landfill that is filled with garbage, waste and rubbish. We throw away so much stuff. Most of us have several waste baskets throughout our homes and a garbage container or two outside the […]

Savior in the Angst
Relief from grief doesn’t come in a flash; when your heart is decimated like shattered glass. Broken pieces lie scattered all around; you’re convinced your sanity will never again be found. You’re sad, you’re mad, you wanna lash out. You’re depressed, you’re down, you wanna cash out. Then, all at once, a thought comes your […]

The Heart of the Matter
White knuckles. Pink hands. Letting go: it’s what love demands. Clinging tightly, stressing and stressed; letting go: the life is blessed. Open hands raised to the sky. Lord, I’m yours: You are mine. Hallelujah! He set me free! I let go; He forever holds me! “Trust in the Lord and do good … Delight yourself […]

God’s Eternal Kingdom
I’m kinda curious how many books and how many movies end with: and they all lived … happily … ever … after? Did you ever wonder who was the first person to string together those three words? Happily … Ever … After! I mean, it sounds pretty good to me … HAPPY … For EVER! […]

Compelled to Lie
Amid the hustle and bustle of this maddening race; I’m compelled to lie in a quiet place. Within this calm: He restores my soul, guides my paths, makes me whole. “… he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.” Psalm 23:2&3

Well, HELLO There!
Mighty God, we worship and adore You. Help us realize You remain in control NO MATTER the storm. Friend, may you be FILLED with hope today and share it with others!

Patchwork of Grace
The underside is the ugly side of the other side of the quilt. The side we show to the world we know as we boast what the Lord has built. It’s plain to see He’s not finished with me: More stitches, more thread, more lace. Patterns of love, needlecraft from above, into a tapestry of […]

Loved by God
Hey, Doug Dial here with 1 minute of hope. Once or twice in your lifetime you have probably heard that “God loves you.” Ayup. It’s true! But how can we know this? He is so big! He is so up there! He is so powerful and I’m just one … insignificant … person among over […]

Sacrificial love. Unfailing love. Incomprehensible love. Unending love. Redeeming love. Calvary love. For you. For me. For eternity. For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16

The Most Unlikely
by Linda Handzel Did you know that Jesus loves the most unlikely people? Luke chapter eight tells the story of a woman who dared to approach Jesus for healing, even though she was a social outcast. That woman had been bleeding for twelve years and, according to the law, wasn’t even supposed to be out […]

So
So many broken hearts. So many eyes filled with uncontrollable tears. So many missing the ones they love. So many so lonely for so long. So merciful a God. So compassionate our King. So able to hear our hearts cry. So willing to walk with us in our sorrow. So many touched by the touch […]

Mighty Warrior
Hey, Doug Dial here with 2 or 3 minutes of hope. I know, I KNOW! We’re just OFF the charts today! LOL! From the first day mankind began to roam this earth until this very day there have been precious few moments of peace in our world. Wars, battles, conflicts and fighting seem to have […]

Still Standing
Contrary winds have blown across my heartstrings and wreaked havoc with my haven and safe, happy home. Terror gripped and ripped at my mind; as I helplessly watched my most precious love slip from this life into eternity. Suffocating loneliness, as I have never known before, descended upon me like an avalanche. I did not […]

God’s Unfailing Love
Okay campers … picture this: You’re finally at the campsite. Your gear has been unloaded. Your tent has been pitched. You’ve gathered ample wood for the fire. You’ve placed the frying pan teeming with beans and franks on the metal grate. You’re cold and hungry so you reach into your pocket for a match and […]

The Present in the Pain
Thorns on the rose; thorns on the rose. Why pain and beauty are so often wed, only God knows. When tragedy strikes your heart, when calamity strikes your home; please know this, my grieving friend: you don’t walk that path alone. There’s One who cares. Our burden shares. Hears our prayers. Calms our fears. “… […]

Light of the World
Hey, Doug Dial here with 1 minute of hope. Growing up in The County in Northern Maine in the country, there were no streetlamps outside our windows. Did I mention at night it was extremely DARK? The kind where you honestly cannot see the hand right in front of your face. Suffocating darkness. The only […]

My First Christmas
This Christmas will be my first Christmas; without my loved one by my side. This Christmas will be my first Christmas; since something inside of me died. Not sure how I’m gonna handle the festivities; I’m really not in the mood. Please forgive me if you catch me a little down; don’t mean to be […]

More
Hey, Doug Dial here with 1 minute of hope. If you have ever loaded coffee beans into a coffee grinder/maker then you will understand this: the more coffee beans you place INTO the coffee maker, the more … JOLT … you’re gonna get out the other side. I know. I KNOW! You’re probably reaching for […]

Outdone
I’m holding onto the One who’s holding onto me — but His hold is tighter. I’m floundering and sometimes failing mightily — but His power is mightier. I’m looking unto the One who is looking out for me — but His look is brighter. I’m laying down my burden in exchange for His — for […]

The Safest Place
~Linda Handzel The safest place to put our trust is in the Lord Himself. Jeremiah 17:7 says, “Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, and whose hope is the Lord.” When we put our trust in the Lord, we are leaning on the most dependable place there is. God is our stable place […]
