How often do we obey GOD only to do it imperfectly! We may be in a hurry or even in a mood. Ugh we are such imperfect beings! We realize with every step we take, we are fallen, sinful beings, but at the same time, we desire to obey GOD even if our obedience seems half-hearted. … More IMPERFECT OBEDIENCE/STRONG FAITH
Instead of questioning GOD’S goodness, we should run to it. We always seem to question GOD asking why these days, why wars, why sickness, why evil, why, why, why? Why do bad people hurt good people? Why do cheaters win? But when we ask “why LORD”, we are saying we question HIS goodness and promises, all … More RUN TO GOD’S GOODNESS
If……..then…….maybe, not sure. We have so many unknowns in our lives don’t we! We question and we try to reason through. GOD knows this about us, and HE has given us many promises to stand upon……..I highlight all those “I WILL’s” in my Bible. I take much comfort from them and you should too. As … More SUNDAY REFLECTIONS

In the world…….there is always the appearing of not enough, having enough, making enough money or having enough stuff. And because of that, people are hoarders of all sorts of things. I guess people worry there won’t be “enough” of something someday. Why is that? In a world where we have so much and endless … More MORE THAN ENOUGH
AS MUCH IN THIS LIFE AS WE SEE A PROBLEM OF EVIL, THERE ALSO IS A PROBLEM OF GOOD. GOOD IS NOT A PROBLEM IN AND OF ITSELF. THE PROBLEM IS……. WE DON’T SEE IT OR HEAR ABOUT IT. Just watch the daily news…….evil is highlighted and shown over and over and over, 24 hours … More OUR GOD HASN’T LEFT US!
I find lately that when I look and hear about all the tough stuff going on in the world……..I doubt and lose heart. Do you?
