    Oh God You Are My God Whom I Seek ( Psalm:63 )

    My Soul Is Thirsting For You Oh Lord My God, God is leading us to a place that is beyond knowledge, beyond wisdom, beyond Intellectualization. It is the the deep inner experience that comes to us when we are prepared for it. It is that place in our hearts where we connect intimately with God...

    Do Not Quench The Spirit ( 1Thes.5 )

    Hold On To What Is Good, Once we have surrendered to God, there is no going back. His sanctification brings us new life and once we have put on new life in the Spirit, the old life has no power over us since it was a life in the flesh. So what the scripture is warning us of is to always keep...

    Grant Us The Strength To Endure, Lord we know that you say that if you bring us to it, You will bring us through it. Yet sometimes the will to survive really becomes challenged. We do our best and trust and have faith but still the channel that leads to joy seems to be closed off, leaving us...

    That We Should Be Called Children Of God, This Is How We Know What Love Is; That He laid down His Life For Us, So what John tells us is that we are to follow Jesus in all that we do. At first that seems pretty simple but what happens when someone steps on our toes. Is love our first reaction...
