Galatians 5:13 My granddaughter recently celebrated her 11th birthday and all she asked for was a hamster with all the accessories. Of course we all thought this was rather hilarious because out of everything she could have she asked for, she asked for a hamster. So, my daughter went to our local pet shop and […]
“Let your roots grow down into him, and let your lives be built on him. Then your faith will grow strong in the truth you were taught, and you will overflow with thankfulness.” (Colossians 2:7) After you plant a sapling tree, it takes time but eventually it takes root, burrowing deep down into the soil; […]
“He will conceal me there when troubles come; he will hide me in his sanctuary. He will place me out of reach on a high rock.” (Psalms 27:1-5) I never had a big brother but when I was a kid, some of my friends would say when they were in trouble with a bully, “you […]

Proverbs 3:5-6 So many times we get caught up in our pasts. Life could be going so good, then wham; a reminder or trigger of the past rears its ugly head. It’s never a good experience either. We have all made poor decisions, took the harder road and not the one paved with less pot […]
We are merely moving shadows, and all our busy rushing ends in nothing. We heap up wealth, not knowing who will spend it. (Psalms 39:6 ) Why are we rushing? Why do we need something right now?
