GOD'S LOVE IS WITH YOU
God’s promise is not that we will not suffer or have grief, pain and trouble; his promise is more amazing than that. It is that he will be with us in all of those moments, he will never leave us and forsake us. God loves us too much to leave us to face these moments alone.

MY GOD, MY GOD
Jesus' lonely cry of, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me!" is a desperate cry of loneliness. I believe this was the worst and the most horrible part of the crucifixion for Jesus. I believe it was worst than the beatings, the betrayal of Judas, the desertion of the disciples,

Listen to Adrian Rogers: “It is better to be divided by truth than to be united in error. It is better to speak the truth that hurts and then heals, then falsehood that comforts and then kills. It is not love and it is not friendship if we fail to declare the whole counsel of God. It is better to

This single fruit of the Spirit is quite dynamic. It has many dimensions to it: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. It’s as if this single fruit has multiple flavors. I’m reminded of the movie Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. There

God’s word to speak for me,
God’s hand to guard me,
God’s way to lie before me,
God’s shield to protect me,

Suppose I gave you an automobile valued at $50,000. I say to you, "I’ll give it to you if you just give me $1." You say, "I thought you were going to give it to me." That’s not a gift. It might be cheap, but it’s not a gift. It is the result of your payment.

A poem by Ruth Walsh pierces my heart.
I was naked, and you questioned my lack
Of modesty in my appearance.
I was imprisoned, and you debated
The legal aspects of interference.
I was penniless, and you discussed
Tax-deductable donations from your wealth.
I was sick, and you thanked the Lord,
