There are so many situations that God use to draw us in closer to Him. The word of God tells us all things work together for the good of them who love God and are called according to His purpose.  A broken spirit and a contrite heart, is a critical part of that process.

In the Lord's prayer, Jesus says, "Thy kingdom come." This parable of the net is literally that. This net is going through the church like a net goes through the ocean.

The net is full of different types of people, bond and free, rich and poor, saints and sinners. The good news is our redeemer lives! We must be ready when He comes.

It is amazing how something so valuable as salvation is free.  Something that can't be bought or negotiated on but is attained by faith.

Join us for a fascinating discussion about parables and what Jesus is revealing to us.

The beautiful and fantastic journey we call life is filled with good memories and some not so good. We have triumphs and setbacks, peaks and valleys. It's all to shape us and make us stronger. Remember, you are wiser today than you were yesterday. Seek God's face and pursue wisdom and knowledge. Even when you grow older, you are stronger than ever!

King David is the author of Psalms 37. A man who knows much about trusting God through difficult circumstances. Don't be fooled by the nonsense of this world.  People will attempt to shame you for doing what's right.  Hold fast to God's promises and keep your faith.  Jesus Christ has plans for you; to elevate you and prosper you!

We serve an awesome God. Sometimes we take for granted all of His marvelous gifts and mighty works.  It is imperative that we be grateful and thankful for all He has done for us.

Potholes and obstacles are par for the course when serving God. I want to encourage you to keep your faith and hold on the God's promises for your life. Many are the afflictions of the righteous but God delivers us out of them all!

Do you realize how blessed you are if you have one person praying for you? Some of us have more than one person. The prayers of your parents or grandparents are still working.

In the garden of Gethsemane, Jesus prayed before He went to the cross for all mankind. Remember someone had you on their mind and prayed for you.  You are blessed because I'm praying for you!

Where do you seek help when you perceive trouble is near? The writer is infusing us with confidence as they boast about God's greatness, faithfulness, and securtiy.

Do you need a man or woman to motivate you? Or are you a self starter?  Look at the ant colony to see how hard they work. As we consider the ants we should also consider ourselves. 

Are you led by the HolyGhost? Do you finish what you start? This is something we all can work on.
