    Contributed by John Gaston on Apr 26, 2018
     | 9,773 views

    Sometimes God allows us to experience bitter trials. The crowning grace is when we can praise God -- in spite of or even for -- the trial. That's what Nehemiah did when he went to praise God at the Dung Gate!

You’re at the end of all your troubles.” 2. A year later, the groom returned and said, “What a year I’ve gone through! It was ...read more

    The Hard Work Of Trust

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Mar 16, 2021
     | 3,314 views

    God teaches us to trust in him and in his Son our Saviour. God tells us that anxious care and bitter sighing won’t help. Discontentment will get us nowhere, but only humble trust and steadfast faith.

    Have you ever felt like complaining against the LORD? Maybe you’ve prayed and prayed, but the answer that you wanted hasn’t come. Or you don’t like what God has brought into your life: lots of disappointment, lots of frustration. Or maybe you look at all the wickedness in the world, and you fear ...read more

    Heart Trouble

    The Scripture teaches that persecution comes from every side to those who live like Jesus. Living for Jesus is radical. It is intrinsically counter-cultural. To walk like Jesus we walk against the flow of our culture.

    Heart Trouble Mark 15:1-20 Jesus before Pilate 1 Early in the morning the chief priests with the elders and scribes and the whole Council, immediately held a consultation; and binding Jesus, they led Him away and delivered Him to Pilate. 2 Pilate questioned Him, “Are You the King of the ...read more

Those conflicts are rooted to so much hatred, antagonism, bitterness and hostilities. In addition, hot tempered ...read more
