Encamped by Angels: The Unseen Support Around Us Babes reminded me during devotion that God’s angels encamp around us—especially when we go through tough times. In every situation and in every place, His angels surround us. That thought brought me so much comfort. Have you ever stopped to think about the unseen presence of angels—your heavenly escorts, your spiritual bodyguards, quietly surrounding you as you walk through life’s challenges? When the journey feels lonely or painful, remembering that heaven is actively engaged on your behalf can shift your entire perspective. I went to the office around 12 p.m. There were fewer people there, so I interacted a bit but kept my talking minimal. I listened to some of my coursework while I cleaned and organized my desk. I’ve had this lingering neck pain for a while—it feels like a stiff neck, but with a deeper ache running along the path behind my ear.

  Wednesday, 11 June Day #33 - Though you can't see my smile - it is in my heart A Message from the Heart Reflection This Morning 2 Corinthians 10:5 (MSG) “We use our powerful God-tools for smashing warped philosophies, tearing down barriers erected against the truth of God, fitting every loose thought and emotion and impulse into the structure of life shaped by Christ.” Recently, Babes and I reflected on the captive perspective - not allowing our thoughts to grow monumental.

When you intentionally “fit every loose thought” into Christ’s structure, something beautiful happens; your heart begins to smile. Did You Know? Research consistently shows the co...

He asked where Babes was from, and Babes replied, “The Caribbean.” The man laughed and said he often gets that response when he asks Guyanese people where they’re from; they simply say “Georgetown.” He wanted the island, and yes—Babes finally clarified: Dominica , the Nature Isle of the Caribbean . He was quite funny.

He is 71 years old, and in the middle of the conversation, his wife gently corrected his dates and facts—he said: “God’s gift to you is who you are. Your gift to God is who y...
