just for today

Just for Today: Hope for Single Moms by R J Thesman. Single moms do not have hours for devotional time, scripture memory practices, praying for the world or meditation. They may be working two or three jobs, attending their teenager's soccer games, studying for their own college exams and taking care of several little people -- all at the same time.
    But life happens one day at a time, day after day, and single moms need encouragement. Just for Today: Hope for Single Moms offers a brief meditation and/or practical tips with the opportunity to journal later. It gives single moms a variety of thoughts that can be read in five minutes or less, then carried throughout the day.
    Whether you're a single mom through death, never married, a military wife or divorced, Just for Today: Hope for Single Moms offers a brief boost of hope you can focus on for a few minutes -- just for today.
   Published independently in 2021.  Available on Amazon.
