“So the LORD blessed Job’s latter days more than his first.” Job 42.12 Conversations Within” ts 9/17/2019
Grace modeste- an "unassuming grace." Any discussion of a spiritual nature should reflect this mutual kindness. The following are simply my devotional reflections each morning. I cast them like "bread upon the waters," hoping that all who find them will find something of value to nurture their own inner life.

“Just because we have a bad chapter doesn’t mean our story has a bad ending.” Unknown
I saw this recently on a Facebook post as a note in the margin of someone’s Bible in reference to the book of Job. Job, as you may remember, had some pretty bad days. Who doesn’t? This does not mean that our final chapter cannot end with, "they lived happily ever after.” An abundant and eternal life is the promise of Jesus to all who look to Him in faith. A happy ending begins when we accept joint authorship with Him and leave the last chapter to His grace and mercy.
