    No one whose hope is in God will be put to shame. It is not the harsh realities that defeat us but our inability to see God¡¯s goodness and will in them. Trust the Sovereign God who is in control and still very much involved in your life.

Look at Jesus at the lowest point of His life - the night ...read more

    The devil gets to us most effectively through the gateway of our minds. On the battlefield of life we must have our heads protected to ward of our enemies deadly blows. The helmet protects our thoughts but it also perfects our thoughts.

Turn to a friend and tell them the last thing you thought about last night before falling asleep and the first thing you thought about this morning. Sometimes we have very little control over our thoughts; they ...read more

    Nous avons prié si longtemps, si fort, sans résultat. Il y a une grande assurance qu'Il entend chaque prière. Plus une prière est retardée, plus elle sera enfin parfaite. Plus le silence est profond, plus la réponse est forte.
