Worship and Overcome
It’s easy for the angels who see God’s face every day to worship Him. But when His children down here in this world filled with sin and trials worship in spirit and in truth, sight unseen, from the midst of all our hardships and heartache, that is — I paused here as I wrote thatContinue reading “Worship and Overcome”

Maybe that’s something you also experienced that is still a struggle for you today. It’s easy to imagineContinue reading “Do You Measure Up?”

Mark 11:25, RomansContinue reading “Freedom through Forgiveness”
Forgive
This morning, I felt the Lord leading us back to forgiveness. Matthew 6:14-15; Psalm 32:1-5; Romans 12:17-21 When Jesus died on the cross, He paid for all our sin — from the tiniest infraction to that monstrous mistake we still regret. So, if our mile-high debt has been forgiven entirely, why are we so botheredContinue reading “Forgive”
