    About this ebook

    The daily challenge to navigate through the cultural chaos and noise toward your life purpose feels overwhelming at times. If you are like most, each day brings a smorgasbord of unwanted influential information to decipher which potentially if unaware may cause major turmoil in one's world. How we distinguish opportunities from potential disasters will either keep us free and flourishing or enslaved and just surviving throughout our life journey.   

     

    These 31 practical devotions are designed for a disciple to review one's life compared to our reference point – Jesus Christ. Each devotion focuses on Scripture and an enticing activity designed for personal transformation. You will discover more who God is and HIS work to mold and shape you into the character of HIS Son.

     

    The world is a dangerous place with many traps for the believer to accidentally fall into. However, God's Word has helped many not only survive, but thrive by avoiding the pitfalls of cultural influences. So can you.

     

    Gracefully read, learn, and integrate these lessons to experience and become the best God has for you.
