Hope, Comfort and Joy
We live in a world, where when we read the bible, people say we are in a cult. The most sold book in the world is the bible. I go to a church that studies the bible every week, from cover to cover. It takes years to go through the entire bible. I learn so… Continue reading Hope, Comfort and Joy

God Will Equip Us To Do His Good Works
Do you truly believe that God’s goodness is better than anything else? I do, yet I still sin. Why would I miss out on some of God’s blessings and go against God? All humans sin.

God Takes Care of Us
Sometimes we have to face uncomfortable topics. We live in a fallen world, and there are evil people in the world. Sadly, there are people in the world that want to harm you. There are divisive people. The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines divisive as creating disunity or dissension. Have you ever met anyone like that? Someone… Continue reading God Takes Care of Us

When we get consumed about the past and start replaying all… Continue reading God Is Our Portion Forever
