These are sermons, books, devotionals, and hymns I've found encouraging and a personal comfort and blessing in my life, especially during trials. If you take the time to listen to or read any of them, I pray they might be a blessing to you as well! I've compiled them here with the hope it is an encouragement to other believers in particular as they have been to me; or if you are unsaved, to show you the way of salvation. I will be editing this page as time goes on (Lord willing)...so please check back for more.
Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God. -2 Corinthians 1:3-4
Note: As might be expected, I do not fully endorse the doctrinal and/or personal views of any of the speakers or writers of these messages. :) As with all things, we ought to compare scripture with scripture for our own selves, and seek the Lord for Godly discernment in all that we read and hear!

Purchase: Lambs Safely Folded - This book has touched my heart many times, most especially in my early Christian walk, and often made me desire to have a closer walk with God as I read the last words of these dear children who the Lord took to be with Himself at young ages. Their words and understanding of God's mercy to them was so far beyond their years...clearly a work of the grace of God in their hearts. I highly recommend it!
Purchase: Sunshine Country by Kristina Roy - It's probably obvious that my blog is titled after this book, and shows what an influence it has had in my life! :) This true story is such an amazing book to read of God's grace, mercy and overruling Hand. The simple faith Palko came to have in the Lord is sweet to read of...and what I desire and pray for in my own life. I grew up with memories of my dad reading this book to us children...and I think anyone else would enjoy hearing it too!
"Hope fills the afflicted soul with such inward joy and consolation, that it can laugh while tears are in the eye. It can both sigh and sing in the same breath."
Trust Means Joy
"For our heart shall rejoice in Him, because we have trusted in His Holy Name"
