Recognize: 50 Days of Devotion
by Eavan GilhulyEavan Gilhuly, a graduate of Desert Christian Academy in Bermuda Dunes, CA has written an inspirational and heartfelt devotional, a publication that provides a specific spiritual reading for each calendar day. Gilhuly says the book, entitled Recognize, was penned as a tribute to her graduating class of 2019, and she presented it to them at a recent retreat.The book is structured so that each devotional day begins with a Bible verse, followed by Gilhuly's thoughts and feelings about that verse and then a subsequent journal prompt. She says it was her pastor who suggested the format, with an emphasis on "God," then "you," and then "them." While she enjoyed writing each of the fifty entries, Gilhuly says her favorite devotional is Day #3: Lamentations 3:22-23, a passage focused on God&’s faithfulness, mercies and promises.A lifelong desert resident, Gilhuly plans to study nursing at Northwest University, a top-ranked Christian college near Seattle, in the fall. She does not rule out a follow up to Recognize but acknowledges the next book would likely be a different type of devotional.To learn more about Eavan Gilhuly and her devotional Recognize, visit www.Eavan-NoLimits.com

The Sound of Many Waters
by Robert Manuel TrindadeOur beliefs determine how we behave personally, and also our lawful standards as well. Misplaced faith and worship has led many far from truth. God is not tolerant toward sin or the rejection of truth. His ways are not our ways, and wisdom and salvation only come through His way. Christ is the fulfilment of God's love for us and His word which is the guide.God has made Himself known to all through nature, His written word, and in the person of Christ. Our understanding and acceptance of God will determine our lives as individuals and as a society more than any other beliefs. God has set the standard for love and moral living, and when we honor Him, we will become what's needed by our fellow man. Wisdom and truth are God's, and all substitutes will not stand. Only in God should we trust.
