    The marks of greatness in God’s sight are the same marks of greatness that Jesus showed us-humility, self-sacrifice, total dependence on God and total obedience even unto death. The only place of honour in God’s kingdom is the place of service.

    Do you believe in miracles? Well, I certainly do, because earlier this year I saw God work a miracle in the life of my mother. One night she had to be rushed to the hospital by ambulance because of breathing problems. I followed the ambulance in my own car. After several tests and x-rays, the ...read more

    Love takes first place in John 3:16. But isn’t that exactly why more don’t trust Jesus. They simply don’t trust love! Yet, God proves his love in the story of Hosea. His love(1)will never let you go and (2)will always take you back.

    Resting in God’s ability to fight your battles shows the accuser the strength of your faith! The strength of your faith stems from the amount of trust you place in Gods hands! Knowing you can be thankful for God’s ability to act in each and every situation you may face is POWERFUL!
