Shalom!

It bids my trembling heart rejoice; It dries each rising tear; It tells me, in a “still small voice,” To trust and never fear. Oh, how I love Jesus, Oh, how I love Jesus, Oh, how I love Jesus, Because He first loved me! (Frederick Whitfield, 1855)

Beneath the waves I am, creation pities me, For once I was a sailor victorious on life’s Sea; I sailed with joy and peace, I sailed with great skill And all that changed the day when doubt hopped in my ship. It tore my sails apart; it punched a hole in the deck, The ship that was once a wonder...

We are confident that God listens to us if we ask for anything that has his approval. 1 John 5:14 GOD'S WORD® Translation. You will Pray and Make requests to God about many things concerning whoever and whatever you want, and there are many bible verses that we use (Some out of context), But...

"I am the true vine, and my Father is the vine dresser. Every branch in me that does not bear fruit he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit. A vine is planted solely for the sake of its fruit. There are many sorts of vines, each with its...

AN INSIDE LOOK I took a look outside, I saw your Frailty A small discomfort I caused you, yet you’ve not forgiven me; The way your selfishness and pride sweeps others like a broom Keeps me so afraid of you, that I stay locked up in my room: I took an outside look, and saw the world as...

I am no longer anxious about anything, as I realize the Lord is able to carry out His will, and His will is mine. It makes no matter where He places me, or how. That is rather for Him to consider than for me; for in the easiest positions He must give me His grace, and in the most difficult, His...

Some say that Faith is Blind, I don't believe its true, For one deliberately portrays, their convictions in all they do It clearly is intentional, the way you put your trust And like a piece of metal, if not used, it may rust; Some say that Hope is blind, i find that to be false, For one will...

Back when life was easy, Back when i was a child, Those days were days of fun and innocence, i couldn't tell a fake smile; Back when Guilt was foreign and my heart knew no pain, I lived a life of simplicity, not concerned about riches or fame; I played with my older brothers and sisters, we...

I found these six ways of minimizing sin to be very instructive regarding gospel-centered sanctification/mortification of sin. Take a moment and examine your fight against sin, the ways you are prone to minimize sin, and develop an intentional strategy to renounce them. 1) I find it difficult...

As fallen men, even redeemed fallen men, we will never be entirely content in this life. Our hearts are too prone to wander, far too apt to flirt with idolatry, for us to be completely content in Christ. As Calvin famously put it, the human heart manufactures idols day and night every day...

Before God and all mankind, I pledge the love and loyalty of my heart, the wisdom and courage of my mind, the strength and vigour of my body in the service of my fellow citizens; I promise to stand up for Justice, Brotherhood and Peace, to work diligently and creatively, to think generously and...

If i should die today, let it be in peace, knowing that i have done all that i can to be a blessing; Reaching to hearts far and wide, both blacks and whites, from both sides proclaiming hope to souls that need caressing; May my death not be one experienced in the agony of regret, May i sigh in...

Psalm 51:17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise. (K.J.V) David wrote Psalm 51 after he was confronted by the Prophet Nathan who rebuked him for having Slept with Uriah, getting his wife pregnant and then having him killed and...

A.M.P - 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 But He said to me, my grace (My favor and loving-kindness and mercy) is enough for you [sufficient against any danger and enables you to bear the trouble manfully]; for my strength and power are made perfect (fulfilled and completed) and show themselves most...
