We so often make the mistake that we think following Jesus means everything in our lives will go smoothly and be problem-free. But that is not what the Bible teaches us! When we look at all the lives of those chronicled in Biblical history, we see a different reality. That reality involves hardship, sin, failure, […]

God makes the unexpected choice over and over again throughout Scripture. Like Leah, you may feel unseen. You may feel unheard. You may feel unwelcome or unwanted. Like Judah, you may feel disconnected from God and adrift in a sea of misguided cultural immorality. But God sees you! He hears you and he longs to […]

We may have strayed far from God, done regrettable deeds, and fallen short again and again. Yet we yearn for God’s blessing…to feel the love of our heavenly Father, to bask in His approval. Despite our wanderings we need to remember that God always seeks us out! And like Jacob, He offers restoration when we […]

So Abraham called that place “the Lord will provide…” There’s an eternal truth at work here – not just that the Lord did provide, but that He will provide.

In the darkness of countless years, all of humanity waited – often without hope, without light. Longing for the promised rescue of a Savior coming from heaven to earth bringing hope and healing to all who seek Him. One who will sit on the throne of the King of kings, offering restored relationships. Healed hurts. […]
