We were meant for paradise, a place to meet with God, a place where our souls are in tune with our Maker. We were meant for God's fellowship, that's why we long for more and why so many seek a pathway leading to peace and happiness. God created the heavens and the earth, created a garden, a perfect place - paradise, unstained, pure and untainted beauty. Paradise on earth was lost with sin, but eternal paradise is found in Jesus Christ. No matter what was done, what was experienced, the pathway home is through Jesus, for He is the life, the truth and the way. His loving arms are open wide to all who receive Him. And, when hearts are opened to Jesus, He opens eternal paradise to those who believe. My prayer is that each page of this devotional will bring truths from God's word to bring encouragement, Godly wisdom, comfort, and joy as we journey to our Home in paradise.

Unnamed - without a name; nameless. Not indicated or mentioned by name; unidentified, unknown. Many people feel lost in a sea of humanity, just another unknown face in the crowd. We all have our stories of feeling nameless. The world can be such a lonely place, yet there is One who knows your name and loves you forever. Inside these pages, each devotion is written to help you along the journey, to know God better, and know how very loved you are by God. No matter how alone you feel and how unnoticed, God knows your name. He loves you. He knew you before you were even born. He knit you together in your mother's womb and knows you so intimately he knows the number of hairs on your head. You are so very known and so very loved.

Have you ever wondered if you could rise above the problems of this world? I have. As I sat praying and surrendering my next steps to God, I felt him whisper, "Buckle your seat-belt. Get ready to fly!" I jumped on the offer, ready to sprout my wings and ride those air currents. Maybe I'd even get a cape with some super-cool outfit to fight crime and the injustices of life. Unfortunately, I overlooked these three words, "Buckle your seat-belt." Uh-oh. "Buckle your seat-belt" doesn't only indicate takeoff; it may also mean rough weather ahead, and you better be strapped in because it's going to be a wild ride, and you may need a barf bag. Bummer. Join me through the good, bad, and downright ugly as we find God's wings in the midst of trials and troubles. Flying on His Wings invites you to ...* Buckle your seatbelt - Making it through life's turbulence.* Get a handle on your baggage - Jettison the stuff that keeps you grounded.* Trust the pilot - God's really pretty cool; you can trust Him.* Fly through the battle while battling through life.* Catch air currents - When you need more than a parachute.* Fly forward - Winged and ready.

Are you looking for a safe place to take a deep breath and find rest? Truth, hope, and encouragement are found in the Bible. Find your resting place. Come aside, soak deep, and linger in this five-session study of God's word.
