Waiting On The Lord

Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 12, 2025

Faith learns to wait when heaven is silent, trusting that divine delay is never denial but God’s perfect timing for greater glory.

Heaven Opens The Books

Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 14, 2025

He writes: “The court was seated, and the books were opened.” — Daniel 7:10 Just a simple line. But ...read more

A Person, Not An Algorithm

Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 21, 2025

True meaning is not something we calculate or construct but Someone we receive—our identity, purpose, and hope found only in Christ.
