I'm Trying to Help Somebody

Jesus said, "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God." He also taught us to pray, "Give us this day our daily bread." Oftentimes bread is available to us and in our possession, but we can't decide what to eat. Bible reading can sometimes be like that. Our appetites constantly change, and we need and enjoy variety in our spiritual diet. In I'm Trying to Help Somebody, Rodrick A. Smith wants to provide a balanced diet of daily spiritual nourishment. These daily devotions serve as a source of encouragement, inspiration, warning, and rebuke; that's the variety. They are expositional, practical, and portable. One devotional is written from each chapter of John's gospel through the book of Revelation. Prayerfully read and be helped. I'm Trying to Help Somebody is an inspiring read for Bible enthusiasts on every level. To have these carefully written notes is valuable to the shelves of every Christian's library.
