     | 2,958 views

    So many people today feel like they exist more than they live, thinking that everything in this world is against them and that no one cares. Matthew, the tax collector, is just such a case. It turned out that Jesus had a plan for him, and for you as well.

The Lord Jesus is not the exclusive property of any group or man- made religious system. Nobody can mold Him into one particular behavior to suit ...read more

But there’s one thing that can never be restored is time. Time flies and it does not return. Years pass and we never get them back. Each ...read more

    The call of God is the greatest privilege granted us.

    In My Father’s House Luke 2:41-52 I am sure many of us have wondered about Jesus’ early life and upbringing.
