    If we will have faith, Jesus can resurrect areas of our life we have written off as dead, gone, over, or impossible.

They dealt with the unexpected Death of a family member. In fact, both situations had Jesus at the center of attention. In both cases, ...read more

    In many cultures widows are never considered as strong, successful and influential women but God gives great honour to many widows in The Bible as they teach all humanity the deeper lessons of life by their simple acts of faith in God Almighty.
