    Noah believed God, and he built an Ark to save his family. What can learn from Noah's faith, and what is there in the story of God's judgment that we need to share with the world?

    The plan that God has for our lives will certainly be fulfilled if we honor God and remain faithful to Him and the relationships that He has entrusted to us. When God chooses to lift one up, no man can do anything to stop it.

I went to visit a family, and I casually asked a little girl aged around 8 or 9, ‘What did you learn last ...read more

    Rumors and gossip are things we should avoid at all cost, because the information we spread can be destructive to those individuals when shared with others. Our God is not in the business of tearing down lives, but restoring them.
