     | 1,416 views

    God’s peace is not the same as the world’s peace - even though people filled with God’s peace DO bring peace to the world.

They couldn't get along and divided into two groups by the time they were half way across. According to the ...read more

    We are blessed when our sins are forgiven... how much greater is the blessing when we can forgive those who wrong us.

    God Is Merciful-- Are We? MT 18:21-35 Today’s scripture reminds me of the story told about Gen. Robert E. Lee after the civil war.

    Sleeping can cause a lot of problems when done at the wrong time. The Christian must be disciplined to sleep at the right times and be vigilant at all times.

Don’t be alarmed, don’t be afraid, you are a lot like me. I Thessalonians is a book written to very special ...read more
