I have read and heard the verses in 2 Corinthians 12:8-10 many times. They are all about the Apostle Paul’s thorn in his side, his pleading with God to remove it, how and why God left it. And so, the famous bible verse became… “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is madeContinue reading “Weakness.”

Goodness & Faithfulness
In Genesis, Abraham gets this wild promise from God: Then the LORD said to him, “Know for certain that for four hundred years your descendants will be strangers in a country not their own and they will be enslaved and mistreated. But I will punish the nation they serve as slaves, and afterward they willContinue reading “Goodness & Faithfulness”
ALL ARE WELCOME
You can be sure that no immoral, impure, or greedy person will inherit the kingdom of Christ and of God. For a greedy person is an idolater, worshiping the things of this world. Ephesians 5:5 It’s interesting, this verse coming shortly after Paul’s big talk on unity. Because it almost depicts heaven as something thatContinue reading “ALL ARE WELCOME”

A good God.
The king said to Daniel, “Truly, your God is the greatest of gods, the Lord over kings, a revealer of mysteries, for you have been able to reveal this secret.” Daniel 2:47 Who knows if perhaps you were made queen for just such a time as this? Esther 4:14 God knows me by name andContinue reading “A good God.”
God is true. God is faithful.
Let those words sink in, let them radiate through your soul. No matter what you are walking through, I promise you that God does not change. He is the same God, yesterday, today, and always. I have a little testimonial blog post here for you to back up what I believe to be true aboutContinue reading “God is true. God is faithful.”
