Matthew 5:16 says, "Your light must shine before people in such a way that they may see your good works and glorify your Father, who is in heaven" (NASB 1995). Thus, this book seeks to glorify God--the Creator and Owner of the earth and all it contains, the world, and those who dwell in it (Psalm 24:1 NASB)--by encouraging people to live a more abundant life and to live it to the full (John 10:10).

Matthew 5:16 says, "Your light must shine before people in such a way that they may see your good works and glorify your Father, who is in heaven" (NASB 1995). Thus, this book seeks to glorify God--the Creator and Owner of the earth and all it contains, the world, and those who dwell in it (Psalm 24:1 NASB)--by encouraging people to live a more abundant life and to live it to the full (John 10:10). The devotionals also attempt to demonstrate that what is most important in your life is your attitude toward and response to God, which, in turn, dictates or impacts your response to your circumstances. It is, therefore, hoped that this devotional will encourage and empower the reader as they journey through life and face life's challenges, bringing them joy that comes from within and not from without, regardless of their circumstances. Key themes of the book include, but are not limited to, making Jesus both your Lord and Savior; allowing God to soften your heart and aligning it with His heart and motives; forgiving those who have wronged you; not holding onto the past; staying in God's will and not doing your own thing; numbering your days and making them count when it comes to serving God; finding joy in the LORD in the midst of your trials and circumstances; and trusting God to work all things together for good and His glory. The devotionals are inspired by personal experiences and challenges that the author has faced in life, as well as those of others, while some are inspired by sermons he has heard or conversations that he has been privy to. It is hoped that the devotionals will touch and transform hearts for Christ, bearing in mind that while they are rooted in the Word of God, they are not meant to be a substitute for reading the Bible. In closing, for those who find themselves thirsting for more spiritually and wanting to have a new or stronger relationship with God, or even those who aren't sure what they believe, hopefully this devotional will be a source of encouragement, bearing in mind they must ultimately look to the Source when facing the trials and difficulties of life. For it is not a matter if they will face trials, but it is a matter when they face them (Acts 14:22). May this devotional be a blessing and encouragement to you, in Jesus's Name.
