But David found strength in the LORD his God.” (1 Samuel 30:6 NLT) The recorded word of 1 Samuel 30 reveals David in a difficult position of ...read more

    A nationally known preacher told a group of men at a preacher’s conference that HE HAD NEVER BEEN DISCOURAGED A DAY OF HIS LIFE!

    Listen, he lost all credibility with many of the preachers there, because that just sounded like it could not be true. Everyone has to battle some degree of discouragement at some time in life; I MEAN EVERYONE! The Bible tells us that there was none greater born among women than John the Baptist, ...read more

    A preacher who is nationally known made a statement before thousands of Christians. He said, “I never get discouraged!”

    Now listen, I do not wish to be unkind, but I truly believe this man is being less than truthful to the thousands of people he was addressing. WHY DON’T I BELIEVE HIM?

Do not rephrase or rearrange the sentence but pause, reflect and let it sink in NOT ALL IS LOST! Loss is one of the most devastating issues with no rules or plans. It ...read more
