    You cannot be disappointed by what God has in store for His people. The engine of your imagination cannot compete with what heaven actually is. You can never think it will be better than it actually is. Are you ready to enjoy just that?

     | 186 views

    Jesus Christ stands as heaven’s Commander—our Defender, Champion, and Warrior—declaring in every battle that no one is like God.

    Some truths must be approached quietly… not because they are fragile, but because we are. Some truths cannot be slammed on the table. They must be opened slowly, like a gift you weren’t expecting but desperately needed. Some truths do not enter the mind by force. They slip in through ...read more
