		<title>I Packed Your Parachute</title>
		<description><![CDATA[From the Daily Devotional titled A Daybook of Grace I quote the following.  I felt that the story provided was a great subject to focus on. &#8220;Charles Plumb was a U.S. Navy jet pilot in Vietnam.  After seventy-five combat missions, his plane was shot down, and Plumb parachuted into enemy territory, becoming a POW (Prisoner of War).  [...]]]></description>

		<title>Ritual or Relationship?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In the January 5th day of the devotional of &#8220;Experiencing GOD&#8221; by Henry and Richard Blackaby the following observation is being quoted.  I found this to be particularily hitting very close to home on how most of us feel toward our &#8220;relationship&#8221; with God.  &#8220;Neither did they say, &#8220;Where is the Lord, Who brought us [...]]]></description>

		<title>What I Know For Sure</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This post includes a direct quote from Oprah&#8217;s &#8220;What I Know for Sure&#8221; column in the January, 2011 edition of O Magazine.  I hold great respect for this woman because she is a true example of manifesting her dreams and knowing the power behind &#8220;divine love&#8221; and the law of &#8220;giving and receiving&#8221;.  &#8220;By now [...]]]></description>
