The promise of God’s ear inclined to us when we turn to Him, is the thread of hope in the midst of the battle. As hard as we try in or human efforts, we fall and sometimes hard causing damage we regret for many days, months, and years to come. “But God”; two words that […]
God’s grace is nothing short of amazing just as the great hymn proclaims. It rescues us from inborn death and willful disobedience. God, has given us the promise that if we walk in the light as He is in the light, the blood of Jesus not only justifies, but cleanses us from all unrighteousness. Grace […]
As we pour over the pages of scripture looking for truth, we find the Light from His Word exposes our darkness. I am convinced we are changed every time we open this book. We can no longer go back to living the same way when the truth Is exposed. The beauty of it is, […]
