    God goes before us so that we can overcome in situations that are impossible, however, what we think is success, may not be what God desires for our lives. What God desires most is a strong relationship above all else.

    Bill was a retired pastor who helped out now and then in our church in San Antonio. He was a huge man, the image of what you think of as a lean tall Texan, and he was man with a huge heart.

    We never really know how strong our relationship with God is until we face a severe trial. The darkest times -- our midnights --are the times when our faith is proven. Paul & Silas discovered God was enough at midnight.

    Don't Quit

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 24, 2024
     | 1,177 views

    Our victory is assured because Christ was victorious. We are “more than conquerors through Him who loved us” (Romans 8:37). Quitting is a shortcut leading to failure. We can finish strong when we focus on Christ.

After 15 hours, a heavy fog began to block her view, she became disoriented, and she gave up. To her chagrin, Chadwick learned that she had quit just 1 mile short of her ...read more

    God’s grace transforms weary hearts, planting hope and new beginnings, as He writes His promises within us and remembers our sins no more.

    If you came in today feeling weary, worried, or worn thin, you’re in good company. The God who counts your tears also carries your cares. He has a promise with your name on it—a promise that doesn’t pile on pressure, but pours in power. When we open Jeremiah 31, we find a picture of God kneeling in ...read more
