    Many can mark the day of their salvation. At some point they saw the need to ask for help from above and Jesus Yeshua heard their prayer and sent the gift of the Holy Spirit.

    I think it’s safe to say that the majority of us want to become everything God wants us to be, the problem is that we fall short of God’s perfect plan for our lives. Too often we take matters into our own hands and mess up God’s plan for us. We end up set

     | 21,022 views

    Paul taught us to be "versatile" in reaching out to people. But at times this can make us VERY uncomfortable. How can we make sure we share our faith with people who make us uncomfortable, and do it in such a way that we don’t betray our faith in Jesus?

    I have just been through flooding rains, and in the past, in the eye of the storm (cyclone, hurricane). Peace and calm from God is present in life’s storms in turmoil all around us. In His hand there is comfort when all this world wants to do is to batter the life out of us.

    CALM IN WILD WEATHER – PEACE IN LIFE’S STORMS (Message December 2023) Who controls Nature? Is it some arbitrary force often personified as “Nature”, or is it climate change (if you are desperately seeking an answer), or is it some random series of happenings. It is none of these.
