     | 10,641 views

    Every Christian, as we draw closer to God, will be challenged by the devil. We begin to feel our faith weakening and hope fading. In these times, we need to focus on God and the promises He holds for us.

    With the holidays behind us and into a new year, it is time to set our sights on what’s ahead of us and forget the past.
