DAILY DEVOTIONAL:
Peace of Mind
No matter who you are, you have problems. Everyone has problems. It may be financial worries, poor health, or the death of a loved one. Troubles destroy our peace of mind. Many people worry, become nervous, lose sleep, or even have an emotional breakdown. All of us need peace of mind.---Gospel Way
