1. How Majestic Is His Name
Contributed on Jun 9, 2007
Our worth as human beings lies not in ourselves but in our majestic creator God.
I’m writing school reports at the moment. It’s something I hate doing.

Contributed on Jun 9, 2007
Asaph asks the question - is it worth following God? When you look at life from an eternal perspective, the answer is clear.
Have you ever found yourself thinking – I wish I had what my non-Christian friends have? I wish I had the freedom they have. I wish I was able to do the things that they do without conscience getting in the way. I wish I could get up to what they get up to without feeling guilty. After all, ...read more
