My Morning Spot
This is the spot where I spend time praying and studying God's Word in the mornings. The morning light was especially beautiful today. It comes up over the trees that are gently blowing in the cool wind outside my kitchen and dining room windows. It reminds me of the Scripture:
Psalm 5:3 - "My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and look up."

Danny Fontana on Finance - New INSP Show
Below is a promo for a new show on the network where I work. I am an Executive Assistant in the Programming Department at The Inspiration Networks so all the people involved in the production of this show are my peers. It's fun being in the middle of something like this, even though all I'm actually doing is back office support. They're a fun bunch. This show will appear each weekday at 3:30pm on INSP. INSP can be found on various cable networks across the country, as well as on DISH-259 & DirecTV-364. Danny Fontana also currently appears as a guest of Neil Cavuto on FOX News.
Taste and See
Another good devotional I received today, this one by Derek Prince.
Psalm 34:8
Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in him NIV
Notice that first word, taste: "Taste and see that the Lord is good." You realize, of course, that we are endowed with five physical senses: sight, hearing, touch, smell and taste. What is it that’s distinctive about the sense of taste? I’ll tell you one distinctive feature of taste. If we see something, it’s external to us. If we hear something, it’s external. If we touch something, it’s still outside us. If we smell something, it may be still far from us. But there’s one thing about taste: when we taste something, we take it right into us and it becomes part of us. And I believe that’s why the Lord challenges us to "Taste and see." Don’t let the Lord remain external, don’t let Him remain something outside of you.
Paul says in the New Testament, "Christ in you, the hope of glory." You’ll never really have that hope of glory until you’ve actually tasted of the Lord, till you’ve taken Him within you, and then you’ll know for sure He is good. Not because the preacher says it, not because the radio evangelist declares it, but because you’ve proved it in your experience, you’ve tasted, you’ve invited the Lord to come in and be an integral part of your life. And when you do that, you’ll know He’s good.
