    Out of desperation Jonah offers a foxhole prayer; with no repentance, blaming God, self-righteousness and false piety. God's mercy still continues to be shown to Jonah as God rescues Jonah. It is an unanticipated outcome.

    Knowingly or unknowingly, as women, we are in the business of building – building lives. It is necessary to build our homes as a wise woman. Three ways: Build with a strong foundation: WORD OF GOD. Build with a strong connection: PRAYER. Build with strong brick of LOVE

    Proverbs 14:1 - Every wise woman builds her house, but a foolish one tears it down with her own hands. Here Solomon contrasts once again between wisdom and folly, as in many other verses in Proverbs. And often, in all these verses, we find foolish people to be at one end of the spectrum and the ...read more

    Forgiveness is powerful. Unforgiveness can also be powerful: when we refuse to forgive those who have wronged us, we ironically and powerfully hurt ourselves.

    Jesus often told people, "Your sins are forgiven." What a stunning statement. Forgiveness is powerful. Unforgiveness can also be powerful: when we refuse to forgive those who have wronged us, we ironically and powerfully hurt ourselves.

    Have you ever felt as if your efforts were in vain, and questioned if you were making a difference? We find ourselves questioning God, and tempted to abandon the work. We are not the first to feel this way. God is able to provide the strength we need.

Their experience was so wonderful that Peter desired to remain on the mountain. Jesus knew they could not stay there; He had much yet ...read more
