"I have purchased several Cheerful Hearts cards, and when I saw them on the website, I was very moved by the words. But when I received my cards, and saw them in person, I was absolutely amazed! The photos on these cards are so beautiful and vivid that they stand out more than any others. They are printed on cream/ white embossed paper, the kind found in exclusive shops. Cards of this quality, combined with Laura's unique writings, are worth every penny I spent!"

Question: I’m wondering how you manage on the days you are feeling all the weight of the world is on your shoulders & the pain has set in. As "Just Believe" is my motto.
Thanks, Karen

Answer: There are still moments when I feel the pain and isolation are too hard to handle, that’s when I run to the scriptures to seek comfort, and I also call friends to pray. God often deposits an encouraging poem in my heart when I ‘m at my worst. That always lifts my spirit and gets me through.

What disappointments have you experienced in your life this past year? Have you turned to God for refuge? Looking back, do you see how He provided for your needs?  

Today I am going to recommend an extremely encouraging, daily devotional book entitled “Streams in the Desert” . It is an updated version by L.B. Cowman. It is hard to believe that this book was first published in 1925, as the content is so prolific and relevant to trials we all face in these current times. If you are in need of refreshing from the dry deserts in your life, you will surely be comforted and revived with the streaming wisdom that flows throughout its pages.
