    There are souls who seek to explain away what God has done before them, even though they have seen His work with their own eyes. This text reminds us of how Peter dealt with those situations and thus we are encouraged by his actions.

    This season of Advent is also a season of busyness. There are so many gifts to buy, parties to attend and events to plan for. We must remember the real reason for the season. We must keep our eyes and minds focused on God.

It is a time when we remember the greatest miracle of all-the coming of Jesus. Before Jesus was born, there was a great sense of ...read more
