    We Americans have made it our goal to seek "The Good Life". We do that by earning and spending. But God would rather give us "The Better Life" that comes from earning and giving.

    One of the main things I think that we and all other people in America are searching for is the good life. Am I right? I mean, we all want to have a good home, a good car or two, good vacations, good children, good friends, good food, and so on. Who wouldn’t want such a good life? ...read more

     | 8,031 views

    The Christian life is like "Walking on Water" and to do it successfully we need to be assured that Jesus Prays for Us; He’s Present with Us, Helps Us to cope with Fear and Urges Us to Move Out in Faith.

The secular meaning is that a person is doing wonders - but we can’t quite understand how they’re doing it and there’s a hint of danger that it could all go wrong! The ...read more
