VISITORS TO MY HEART

Although Jesus lives in my heart, there are often visitors who take his chair of honor and disrupt the peace and joy he gives me. How do I deal with them? Do members of the Fear Family ever slip into your heart-home? Do you tend to retrieve and cherish something Jesus has thrown on the trash heap? Are you harboring a little white pet or entertaining guests who crowd Jesus out of his rightful place? Here are twelve humorous and thought-provoking devotionals for individual or small-group use, to help stimulate awareness of visitors who come to our hearts. Betty Casad is married to Eugene Casad, a Bible translator, linguist, and professor. They have served among an indigenous people-group in Mexico, analyzing the language, teaching the people to read, and translating the New Testament into the heart-language of the people. They are still involved in this, although they presently live in Texas and spend time in other countries as well. They have two grown children. Besides studying the Bible and admiring God’s wonderful creation, Betty enjoys music, writing, teaching, and her eight grandchildren.
