It takes some adolescents longer than others to realize their foolish ways. I’ve seen some 25 year olds who are still rebellious, but then I’ve seen some 15 year olds who learned wisdom. Some people never get out of their adolescent years. Never learning responsibility and consequences of their actions. But when we finally get […]

Who would you rather be? The world’s smartest person or the world’s most loving person? Things that come with being the smartest: Lots of money. Recognition. Comfortable life. Power (control). Pride.

That is to love Jesus with all my heart! “The Lord says: These people come near to me with their mouth and honor […]
Good morning everyone 1 Corinthians 6:12-"All things are lawful for me," but not all things are helpful. "All things are lawful for me," but I will not be enslaved by anything.

Good morning everyone, Matthew 14:23-And after he had dismissed the crowds, he went up on the mountain by himself to pray. When evening came, he was there alone, There are times when you look back on situations you had previously been through, and it was that situation that helped you get through the new challenge. […]
Oftentimes for me the scripture expresses exactly how I feel… Ps 90:17, “May the favor of the Lord our God rest upon us; establish the work of our hands for us!” That has been my prayer for the last 2 years as the journey to start As 1 began. I realize that without God’s help, […]
