Written by Chuck Swindoll, these encouraging devotional thoughts are published seven days per week.
Courage Transfusion, Part One
Be aware of the bait that's being dangled before you that causes you to yield a little more in an area of weakness. Be alert to the fact that there is an enemy against you. When your day starts, apply EWO—Eyes Wide Open.
