Life is busy, sometimes crazy, and of course, full of ups, downs, and turnarounds no matter what season we are in because life is life. No matter what is happening to us and where we are in the scheme of things, it is vital for us to find some motivation because that's where our inspiration will come from. There's only one thing that can truly motivate us no matter how we are and where we are, and that is the Word of God. This book, 123, 2 Thoughts and a Prayer (Volume 1) is a collection of one hundred twenty-three daily inspirations and prayers designed to inspire you to build an intimate relationship with God. It's better to start the day with the Scripture and a prayer. Everything else that needs to be done can wait till we spend some time in prayer.
