Do you have “iffy” thoughts that dominate your life? Thoughts like: “What are we going to do IF that happens? What IF that does not work out? How will I manage IF that happens? IF only I had that! IF only I had not done that!” “What IFS” and “IF onlys” can monopolize out thoughts […]

Where Do You Stand?
Sooner or later you have to make your mind up where you are going to stand. We cannot be in the kingdom on Sunday and then be in the world on Monday. In these days, we must decide if we are going to be Christians and act like Christians all the time. We live in […]

Prayer is our lifeline to God. Prayer is the heart-throb of a believer’s heart. Prayer is not about getting your sentences to come out right. Prayer is a simple, ongoing conversation with our heavenly Father that is honest and heartfelt. 1 Thessalonians 5:17 tells us to pray without ceasing, pray continually. Developing a steady rhythm […]
