Revelations 4:11Did you ever wonder why some people raise their hands during a worship song or a sermon? It isn’t to gain attention or to ask a question (joke); it is a sign of submission, a sign of humbleness. We know through watching TV or even possibly seeing it in person that when there is a […]
2 Corinthians 1:3-7It is advised that the rescue approach of using a buoyant object be used when trying to save someone from drowning. Reports have shown that many people drown trying to save another person from drowning.

Read 2 Corinthians 12: 1-10 Good Friday beloved. When it seems that God is not in control that is when he totally is! We try to put God into a box for our own understanding. When things are going bad and seem to contradict God’s word or promises, we feel that God has abandoned us […]
Luke 23:39 One of the criminals hanging beside him scoffed, “So you’re the Messiah, are you? Prove it by saving yourself-and us, too, while you’re at it!” Even at the end of his life the one thief scoffed at Jesus. He could not see what was right in front of his eyes, the truth and […]

Genesis 1:1:31When someone tells us a story and then stops before they finish, don’t we ponder in anticipation just wanting to know how it ends? Or you come into a story in the end and have to know the details of how they got there. Either way, there is a human intrinsic need to know the […]
Mark 6:47 The most significant part of today’s scripture that stuck out for me was (vs 52) “for they still didn’t understand the significance of the miracle of the loaves. Their hearts were too hard to take it in.” Are we like the disciples were at that time? Do we miss the miracles and blessings […]
Job 38:4,7I just spent six minutes watching a video on Facebook where a guy painted this magnificent, beautiful painting in front of every passerby on a street in NY. All he used was spray paint and some different pot lids and he created a masterpiece. The funny part was I found myself in awe and […]
