When were young we learn our parents strengths and weaknesses and how to manipulate, or play them against one another to get what we want. Some of us are ...read more

     | 7,070 views

    God’s Favor is everywhere! Gods favor knows no boundaries, has no inhibitions, doesn’t look for qualifications, is not based on getting in return, only for opportunities to show itself!

For His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for life; Weeping may endure for a night, But joy comes in the morning. One definition of the word favor by Webster is: special ...read more

    Unexamined assumptions can cause us to stumble over things we don't even notice.

Of course, only preachers have that problem... Maybe only 60-something preachers have that problem. But more generally, ...read more
