    Trusting ourselves is sometimes a dangerous choice. If we only rely on ourselves to solve all our problems we will fail. God’s Word says all our trust should be in Him.

    Who do you trust? That is quite a question I think. Its kind of makes me laugh at when I think of everything we trust in. Let’s start out with your day and look at what you trust in. These will be people and objects Ryan’s Day, 6:30 wake up take Sydney out to pee and feed her 6:30 and 30 ...read more

    Everyday we have a choice as Christians to live as God changed us (seated in the heavenly realms with Christ) or live like the way we used to as enemies of God.

For Christians, to be in church on a Sunday morning is the thing to do; But, what about later today or tomorrow? How will we really live? We live our lives without really asking that question, ...read more
