Prayer Journey — The Waiting Room

I sit in the chair waiting. There is nothing I can do but wait on you dear God. It seems all I have left is to trust you God and your timing. I am sorry it took this long to lean on you and not my own understanding. Help me to abide in you, to […]

Sunday Praise

But as for me, I shall sing of Your strength; Yes, I shall joyfully sing of Your lovingkindness in the morning, For You have been my stronghold And a refuge in the day of my distress. O my strength, I will sing praises to You; For God is my stronghold, the God who shows me […]

Clearing a Path for Jesus in the Wilderness of Life

Our repentance isn’t just an act of verbalizing our faith in Jesus. John warns in verse 9, “every tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.”

Packing the Gospel in Breakable Containers

It seems to me that the good news of salvation through Jesus is such a priceless treasure that is should be contained in something more secure than a fragile body of flesh vulnerable […]
