What can you learn from him? Psalm 9:10 AMP And those who know Your name [who have experienced Your precious mercy] will … Continue reading You Can Trust God!

Salvation through Grace

There are connections that make a difference in our lives. But, there is no connection that  can make the difference Jesus makes in our lives.

Immature Faith

There are times in life where understanding God’s word has nothing to do with age. Chronological age does not mean maturity in the things of God.

Meditate on God’s Faithfulness

Both of them stayed there with the church for a full year, teaching large crowds of people. (It was at Antioch … Continue reading Walk Like Christ

In His Presence

Children usually love to spend time with their parents. They will play with you and talk with you but there is something about going home with mommy and daddy. Where love exists, there is joy in the presence of that individual. We have someone who loves us so dearly that He laid down His life … Continue reading In His Presence

For us, service involves helping and at times, even helping in the care of others. God … Continue reading Serve with Joy
