Phil.4:6-7: “do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” (ESV)

“…that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things.” (Titus 2:10b KJV)

With the Olympics taking place, it reminds [...]

Today is Memorial Day in the U.S. This day was originally set aside after the civil war, and now is a day to remember all the men and women who have died in service to America. It is good and right to remember those who gave their lives in the name of freedom.
And [...]

James 1:22 “But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.” (ESV)
I was reminded by the Lord of this the other day. It came after a time where I had a disagreement with someone, and the Lord spoke to my heart about the problem being the fact that we simply don’t [...]
