     | 5,718 views

    We don’t see much meekness in this world, but it was a meek and lowly life that Christ modeled for us. When we watch a movie depicting the life of Christ, we often see a soft spoken and gentle man. Perhaps that is the picture we have of meekness. Only

    The principle for peace is the same as the principle for the farmer’s crops. Never underestimate the power of a seed.

    Text: Matthew 5:1 thru 9 While driving down the road during the summer months we can easily see miracle after miracle. With every field of corn, wheat or soybean, we can see miracles taking place. If we take a small seed and put it under several inches of dirt, and give it enough water, enough ...read more
