    Faith is a choice we have to make, even when life disappoints us. We can choose faith, or discouragement. The choice of faith is what God is pleased with, and responds to.

    Life is not always easy. It’s not always fair, nor is it always kind. Life can take some twists and turns that we are simply not prepared for. And although we know that life can be cruel and disappointing, it seems that we are rarely ever prepared for things to go wrong. One of the facts of life ...read more

Such as believing for : A job when unemployment is low, Healing when your doctor has prescribed medicine, God’s provision when you just inherited $1 million. On the other end of the spectrum, some things are ...read more
