    We need to realize that everyone has difficulties and must endure tough times. But it’s not enough to just endure tough times, we must learn how to be thankful through them if we’re going to receive God’s goodness.

    Every single circumstance that comes to us is first sifted through the hand of the One who loves us.

    1. Well, the most common question I ask, & I hear in the midst of trials is WHY! -- Why this? Now? Me? Why him? WHY LORD?!!?! • But I’ve noticed that God doesn’t always answer that question. • He doesn’t always reveal the WHY, or explain the details. • He simply calls us to trust… cling… hold on to ...read more

    In one sense, the remnant was just like us--they had free access to the Word of God. God had just spoken His Word to them through Haggai and Zechariah. God’s Word was available--what were they going to do with it? What are we going to do with it?

    Why did God create us? Why does He call us together in Christ? We all know we are saved through Jesus Christ, but for what purpose? God answers that clearly in Ephesians 4:11-16. From creation to Christ we are called together to serve.

    The text for our topic of today (we begin our relationship with each other) is from Genesis 2:18 (And Ephesians 4:11-16) The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone, I will make a helper suitable for him.” God had created everything in order and after each creation ...read more

    God is very much at work behind the scenes of our lives! If we don’t get that, if we miss this wonderful truth, we are going to go through life missing cues, acting in front of the wrong sets, or worse, not showing up for our part at all! Also, if we don’

    Walking In The Fog

    Contributed by Bala Samson on Apr 17, 2021
     | 2,892 views

    Some of us feel ‘tranquility’ is the sign of God’s stamp on a particular project or work, but I have found out that when you enter into the will of God great opposition, obstacles and demons come against you, that is a clear indication that you are in the center of God’s will.

    FOG Isaiah 43:2”When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze.” SO you're waiting for the heat, anxiety, angst and chaos to ...read more

    WHO WORKS? Could you put your hand up please if you get paid to work? And those who don’t get paid - if you do housework, or some type of volunteer work? I would have thought that everyone would have their hand up because everyone works. Children have schoolwork, and homework. Almost everyone has ...read more
