     | 3,530 views

    What God wants to do in our lives is something that's just, well, it's wondrous. Now when we do get this idea, we get the wonder of Christmas, when we realize that God came down to earth, we recognize that God was 100% God and 100% man in Jesus Christ

    Sin leaves us deserted, helpless, destitute, abandoned, without hope and without God! When Jesus carried our sins on the cross, a fellowship was broken that had always existed. Jesus was ALONE!

    Alone? Loneliness is a terrible thing! It can attack anyone…even in a crowded place. Jesus understands the feelings and the fear that come from loneliness. Today we are going to look at the most lonely time in Jesus’ life. It took place on the cross. Matthew’s gospel paints the portrait of ...read more

    How can I make sure my motives are right in what I do?
