from Chapter 1 (Abraham)
We all have different tastes. A great adventure to one is terrifying, boring, or just plain weird to another. God wants to meet each of us where we are and journey with us to the most wonderful places we can imagine. It may be "destination unknown" to you now, but the adventure -- and the
blessing -- is waiting. For anyone who trusts God enough to obey, even when the roadmap seems blank, bleak or blurry,
God has exciting plans -- the adventure of a lifetime.
That's what Abraham's story is all about: trust God to lead you to the best place He most wants you to be, and revel in the excitement! In fact, the journey itself is pure adventure. If you trust God enough to obey Him, He will bless your life with exciting journeys, wonderful places and fascinating opportunities. The Lord knows your destination (He chose it). Your faithful trust and obedience will change
the entire trajectory of your life!

from Day 46, "Will You be My Neighbor?"
Recognizing, acknowledging, understanding and discussing your feelings will help safeguard you from feeling all alone. Rev. Fred Rogers, known in TV land as "Mister Rogers," said that anything human can be mentioned, and anything mentioned can be managed, with the support of others. He asserted that talking about your feelings makes them less overwhelming and scary. Men have a (sometimes deserved) reputation for not talking about feelings. I get that. But why not give it a try?
Developing your relationships helps you deal with negative emotions before they damage you. God created us to live in relationships. It can be a God-ordained safeguard against mental, emotional and social paralysis.
