• “They only did what God permitted them to do, which enabled me always to keep God in sight… When we suffer, we should always remember that God inflicts the blow. Wicked men, it is true, are not infrequently His instruments; and the fact does not diminish, but simply develops their wickedness. But when we are so mentally disposed that we love the strokes we suffer, regarding them as coming from God, and as expressions of what He sees best for us, we are then in the proper state to look forgivingly and kindly upon the subordinate instrument which He permits to smite us.” – Madame Guyon

    I was wondering why days from Streams in the Desert keep disappearing . The upcoming days are there one day and then the next day they, and sometimes several in a row just disappear????? Millard

      Hi Millard, As far as I know I only missed one day. I only just started the Streams in the Desert Devotional a few days ago. I get busy and periodically do not get it sent out in time for the feedburner email to send it. There is only me behind this operation. :) So I do apologize. If it happens again the future, all of the days are already posted at this link https://womenofchristianity.com/missionarys-wives/mrs-charles-e-cowman/streams-in-the-desert-by-date/ Blessings in the Lord, Michelle

    Hello Michelle,I see today that larger numbers of Stream in the Desert are missing.I don't know much about computer programs,but it would seem to be easier and less work to have the whole devotional left on the reference page and then we can just scroll down to the appropriate day,rather than having them shuffled daily. At least then they'll all be there.If this is possible! Thanks, Millard

      Hi Millard, I hope you are well in the Lord. The reason some are missing is that I have changed the post date to be for 2013. The ones that exist still say 2011. I have already posted these 2 years ago but I am now resposting. To save time I re-schedule several of them in advance. If you would like to see the ones that are missing there are various other websites that offer streams in the desert. http://www.christianity.com/devotionals/streams-in-the-desert/archive/ And if you would like to help with the posting of these devotionals please do let me know! :) In the Lord, Michelle

Verse of the Day

[The Last Enemy Destroyed] But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. For since by man came death, by Man also came the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all shall be made alive. — 1 Corinthians 15:20-22 (NKJV)
