    Jesus is knocking at the door of our heart. In the house of our heart there are things we don’t want him to see. But Jesus comes to bring us great things. On top of that he wants to have fellowship with us today and forever.

    You hear a knock on the front door of your house. Or you hear the doorbell ring in your home. What thoughts go through your mind as you head toward the front door? What emotions do you typically feel? Like so many situations in life the answers to those questions depend on the circumstances ...read more

    It isn’t Jesus’ job to calm our storms, but to calm our hearts so that we can face the storms with confidence and courage.

    I just came back from attending my first General Assembly. It is sort of a cross between a political convention and a session of Congress.

    God loves us so much that He is willing to allow the wicked to continue until the harvest or the day of judgment for our sake.
