Hid In Christ
I recently read, “If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.

What Are You Leaning On?
You may not feel like you really lean on anything, but think of when you are scared or stressed; what do you turn to?

The Day My World Changed
Sunday, August 4, 2024 at 8:21 a.m., I received the worst news of my life. My worst fear had become reality. My Daddy had passed away. He was a truck driver, and he was at work. I am sharing this partially as a personal update, partially because it helps me to talk about him, partially… Continue reading The Day My World Changed
Living Abundantly Through Godly Speech
The Bible has much to say about your words. Once the words leave your mouth or you hit send on a text, they can’t be taken back. Your speech can encourage others or tear them down. You can praise God and His doings or deny Him and take the praise for yourself. Proverbs 15:1 says,… Continue reading Living Abundantly Through Godly Speech
