The longer we live in this broken world, the more we desire with our hearts a different country. We know this world is broken by sin, it’s disease ridden and trials and death abound. This world is not our home. We long for a better place and we long for JESUS, our SAVIOR. This world is … More LONGING FOR JESUS
This being Holy Week, let’s remember what JESUS DID FOR US: JESUS CHOSE THE NAILS FOR US If we think, in any way that we chose GOD, we have it all wrong. It was never our idea, only HIS. JOHN 15: 19 “……..BUT I CHOSE YOU OUT OF THIS WORLD, THEREFORE THE WORLD HATES YOU.” And that … More HE CHOSE US
