Friday Faith

Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful. – John 14:27 (NASB) What do you do with fear? Do you dwell on it or release your fear to Jesus?

Falling Into the Hands of God

For as long as I have been a Christian I have sought to have a heart after God. I have questioned God about many things in my life including many traumatic events, but I have never questioned my belief in God. But last week a fellow believer posed a question to me that I have […]

Straw Man Words

God’s Word is full of wisdom and life, yet there are some who twist it for their own selfish gain or even claim certain non-Biblical texts are God’s truth.

Prayer Journey — The Unexpected

I cannot begin to tell you dear Lord how humbled I am by the way you revealed your purposes last week. You reminded me that your ways are not always apparent, that you have higher purposes in mind. You showed me how you can reach people through me in very unexpected ways. Help me to […]
