SUNDAY REFLECTIONS

We say it often…….GOD is good, all the time.  But do we fully trust HIS goodness or is there a small sliver of doubt that nags at us?  It is a doubt that the enemy loves to play with us.  We can fall into this trap, or we can fall into the arms of the ONE … More SUNDAY REFLECTIONS

SUNDAY REFLECTIONS

Sometimes there are things in this life that there are just no explanation for.  When I remember back in my life, I do see many situations that I have questions for GOD as far as why did that happen or whatever happened to so and so??   NOT KNOWING REALLY IS A GREAT MERCY FROM GOD. GOD shields us … More SUNDAY REFLECTIONS

IF

WHY GOD KNOWS BEST WHICH CROSS WE SHOULD BEAR

As he walked into the Sanctuary, I noticed him……bent over and walking with steps that were unsure.  He was an older gentleman, dressed very nice……the way people used to dress coming to Church.  One look at him and my heart broke wondering what his days were like.   As Christians we should look upon others … More WHY GOD KNOWS BEST WHICH CROSS WE SHOULD BEAR

GOD has many ways of expressing HIS love to us……..HIS blessings can be seen around us through the people that … More WHY GOD’S GIFTS ARE EXPERIENCES WE MIGHT NEVER CHOOSE
