The Weary World Rejoices

Yes, I Will
Can you say to God, “Yes, I will?” When this blog launches, the elections for the United States will have taken place. Some will be thankful for the persons elected to office, and some will not be so thankful. A heart of thanks is not always easy to maintain when...
Knowing What to Do
Have you ever struggled in knowing what to do? This is just a part of being human. It is not something to feel condemned about, but something to rejoice in, in that it keeps you humble and dependent upon God. We are in crucial times when important decisions are being...
Jesus Gives Us Peace
John 14:27 states that Jesus gives us peace: “Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. I do not give peace to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid.” Are you living in His peace today? If not, why? I know there are a multitude of...
Words to Comfort You

Christ and the Coronavirus
During the Coronavirus, there has been a host of news reports and conversations that can cause panic and cause people to wonder where is Christ during all this devastation. May I reassure you that He has not moved, He is right here with you. It amazed me to see that...
A Time of Self-Cleansing
I was thankful for having a self-cleaning oven the other day when my dinner spilled over and made a mess. As you know, self-cleaning ovens reduce food spillage to a powdered ash with exposure to high temperatures. While self-cleaning, the oven stays locked until the...
Have A Heart of Compassion
Do you have a heart of compassion? No matter where you go, you can see people who are hurting. There is no shortage of trials in this world. Job 14:1 states, “Man that is born of a woman is of few days and full of trouble.” That’s morbid, unless your life is hid...
