You Are The Light Of The World

It stands to reason that if God is light: “This is the message we have heard from Him and announce to you, that God is Light, and in Him there is no darkness at all.”   ~ 1 John 1:5 NASB And we are children of God: “The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that […]

Love Over All

Posted on

Without love, all the power and ability in the world is useless. God has given us gifts and abilities for the purpose of glorifying him by knowing, living, and speaking His Truth in Love.
