Deuteronomy 8:3–And he humbled you and let you hunger and fed you with manna, which you did not know, nor did your fathers know, that he might make you know that man does not live by bread alone, but man lives by every wordthat comes from the mouth of the Lord. If there is anything […]
Good Memorial Day! I said “good” instead of “happy”, since it seemed wrong to call Memorial Day happy. We are remembering those who gave their lives in order for us to enjoy our freedom. The survivors would not consider the day happy because they are reminded of the loss of their loved ones… Good Friday […]
Have you thought perhaps the reason why you don’t have a higher position (which you desire) is because God is keeping you from sin? You are familiar with the story of David and Bathsheba. It was a sex scandal that left Bathsheba’s husband dead, David in heaps of trouble, and Bathsheba pregnant. As I was […]
Psalm 89:1-I will sing of the steadfast love of the Lord, forever; with my mouth I will make known your faithfulness to all generations. One of the ways you can tell you’re growing to love like God love’s us, is when you’re able to oversee people’s flaws, and do what is best for them or […]

If your worth as a person depends on how much you love others, what would your worth be? Think of all the things that we do in trying to increase our value. We get educated. We acquire skills. We marry up. We associate with others deem valuable. We do all this because there is an […]
Let’s be honest. How many time have you been upset with God? How often have you been disappointed? Perhaps you are still angry with Him for not doing for you what you’ve asked or expected? Did you know that your pain might be the very thing God brought on you to do His work in […]
Deuteronomy 6:6-7–And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. 7 You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. It is inevitable, that in […]
