    Real worship happens only when God in His grace reveals Himself to us. Then we respond with gratitude by recognizing His presence, reverencing Him, remembering what He has done, and reserving ourselves completely for him.

    Three-year-old, Mark, accidentally spilled his fruit punch on the floor one day. He decided to clean up the mess himself and dashed to the back porch to get the mop. Suddenly, realizing it was dark outside, he became apprehensive about reaching out the door for the mop. His mother reminded him ...read more

    God is close to each one of us, but not as close as He wants to be. The up close God wants you to get close to Him if you are willing.

    Doors: Open Or Closed

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Aug 24, 2017

When God opens a door no one can close it. ? When God closes a door no one can open it. ? When one door ...read more

But sadly speaking, the real meaning or spirit of Christmas is not seen in the celebration. Christmas must be a commemoration of the Savior’s Birth, but what is happening is ...read more
