September 16th 2025 – Living in His Light

“Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.” (Colossians 3:1-2)

In these powerful words from Colossians, we are reminded of the profound transformation that comes from our relationship with Christ. Christ consciousness is more than just a concept; it is an invitation to awaken to the divine nature that Jesus exemplified during His time on Earth. This consciousness encourages us to view the world through the lens of love, compassion, and an intimate unity with God. It calls us to rise above the everyday distractions and challenges of life, urging us to embrace a higher perspective.

The apostle Paul urges us to elevate our thoughts, to set our minds on the divine presence of Christ. This act of elevation is not merely about ignoring our earthly responsibilities; rather, it is about transforming our perception of ourselves and others. When we align our minds and hearts with Christ’s teachings, we begin to see ourselves as beloved children of God, each created with inherent worth and purpose. This realization inspires us to live out the values of the Kingdom of Heaven, where love, mercy, and justice reign supreme.

Embracing Christ consciousness is a challenge that compels us to look beyond the superficial judgments and societal divides that often separate us. It invites us to cultivate a spirit of understanding and compassion, recognizing that every person we encounter is a reflection of God’s image. In a world that often feels fragmented, this perspective is a powerful reminder of our shared humanity and the call to love one another deeply.

As you meditate on this call to action, take a moment to reflect on how you can manifest Christ’s love in your life today. What specific actions or attitudes can you adopt to build genuine connections with those around you? How can you foster an environment of understanding and compassion in your community?

“To embrace Christ consciousness is to see the world not just with our eyes, but with our hearts, reflecting His love in every moment and every interaction.” Let this be your guiding mantra as you navigate through your daily life.

Prayer:
Heavenly Father, I come before You with an open heart, seeking to elevate my thoughts and intentions. Help me embody the love and compassion of Christ in every interaction I have today. Teach me to see the world through Your eyes, to recognize the beauty and potential in every individual, and to act with grace and humility. As I pursue the path of Christ consciousness, may my heart and mind continually reflect Your glory. In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen.

September 14th 2025 – What’s Your Temperature?

Leave a reply

“I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth. You say, ‘I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.’ But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind, and naked.” (Revelation 3:15-17)

In a world filled with distractions and competing priorities, many Christians find themselves in a state of lukewarmness—spiritually stagnant and lacking the vibrant faith that Jesus desires for us. It’s a condition that can creep in subtly, lulling us into a false sense of security about our relationship with God.

Checking You Temperature

Lukewarm Christians often attend church, participate in activities, and may even know Scripture, yet their hearts are disconnected from the passion and purpose that come from a true relationship with Christ. They may be comfortable in their routines, thinking that outward appearances are enough. However, Jesus warns us that this state is not only unsatisfactory but also dangerous. It leads to spiritual blindness, where we fail to see our need for His grace and guidance.

Many of us may find ourselves echoing the words of the Laodiceans: “I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.” We may be materially comfortable but spiritually impoverished. This self-sufficiency can hinder our growth and lead us to neglect the deeper aspects of our faith.

The Call to Change
The good news is that we do not have to remain in this state! Jesus invites us to awaken from our lukewarm condition and rekindle our passion for Him. Here are some steps to help us move from lukewarmness to a vibrant, life-giving faith:

Self-Examination: Take time for honest reflection. Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal areas in your life where you may have become complacent. Are you going through the motions, or is your heart truly engaged in your relationship with God?
Repentance: Acknowledge any areas of apathy or disconnection from God. Repentance is not just feeling sorry; it’s a change of heart and direction. Turn away from anything that hinders your walk with Christ and turn back to Him.
Renewed Commitment: Make a conscious decision to pursue a deeper relationship with Jesus. This might involve setting aside dedicated time for prayer, studying His Word, and seeking fellowship with other believers who can encourage and challenge you in your faith.
Action: Faith is not just belief; it’s action. Look for opportunities to serve others, share the Gospel, and live out your faith in practical ways. Engaging in acts of service and love can reignite your passion and purpose.
Stay Connected: Surround yourself with fellow believers who are also seeking to grow in their faith. Join a Bible study, prayer group, or volunteer team where you can encourage one another to remain fervent in spirit.

As we reflect on our walk with Christ, let’s commit to stepping out of lukewarmness into a vibrant relationship with Him. The world needs believers who are on fire with the love of Christ, and it starts with us!

“True faith is not just in what we believe, but in how we live out that belief each day; let our actions be the echo of our hearts.”

Prayer:
Gracious Father, we come before You, acknowledging the times we have settled into a lukewarm faith. We ask for Your forgiveness for our complacency and for the ways we have relied on our own strength instead of fully depending on You. Ignite a fire in our hearts, Lord, that we may pursue You with passion and purpose. Help us to recognize our need for You daily and to live out our faith boldly. May we not only be transformed ourselves but also become agents of change in the lives of others. Amen.

September 4th 2025 – His Unconditional Love

Leave a reply

“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” (Isaiah 41:10)

In the quiet moments of life, when the world seems overwhelming, we often find ourselves searching for reassurance. The weight of our burdens can feel heavy, but in the midst of our struggles, God offers a promise that cuts through the noise: His unconditional love and unwavering presence.

Isaiah 41:10 serves as a gentle reminder that we are never alone. “So do not fear, for I am with you…” These words are not just a command; they are a comfort. God knows our fears, our doubts, and our anxieties. Yet, He invites us to cast them aside because He is with us in every circumstance.

Reflect on the depth of His love. It’s a love that does not waver based on our performance or our circumstances. Whether we find ourselves in joy or sorrow, success or failure, His love remains constant. This love is not just a feeling; it’s an active force that strengthens and supports us.

When we feel dismayed, God assures us, “I am your God.” This declaration is personal and powerful. It signifies a relationship grounded in trust and faith. He is not a distant deity but a loving Father who walks alongside us. In our moments of weakness, He promises to uphold us with His righteous right hand, reminding us that our strength does not come from ourselves but from Him.

As we navigate life’s ups and downs, let us hold fast to this truth: God’s presence is our anchor. In times of joy, we celebrate His goodness, and in times of trial, we lean into His strength. Let His love wash over you, dispelling fear and replacing it with peace.

Take a moment to consider the areas of your life where you might feel alone or fearful. Invite God into those spaces, remembering that His love is unconditional and His presence is promised.

“Even in the shadows of uncertainty, let your heart be anchored in the light of His love, for it is in His presence that we find our true strength.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, Thank You for Your unconditional love and the promise of Your presence in my life. In moments of fear and uncertainty, help me to remember that I am never alone. Thank You for being my refuge and strength, for holding me close when the storms of life rage around me.

Lord, I ask that You open my eyes to see Your hand at work in my circumstances, even when I struggle to understand. Help me to trust in Your perfect plan and timing. When I feel weak or overwhelmed, remind me to lean on You and to draw strength from Your love.

Guide me to be a vessel of Your love to others, sharing the light that You have so graciously given me. Help me to extend grace and compassion to those around me, reflecting Your heart in everything I do.

Thank You for the assurance that You will uphold me with Your righteous right hand. May I find solace in that promise, trusting that You are always with me. As I journey through each day, help me to walk in faith, knowing that Your love and presence will sustain me. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.

August 27th 2025 – What If We Chose Our Bible Over Our Smartphones

Leave a reply

“Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.” (Psalm 119:105)

Imagine a world where we treated our Bibles with the same care and attention as we do our smartphones. What if we carried them everywhere, checked them frequently, and turned to them for guidance in every situation? This devotion invites us to reflect on our relationship with God’s Word and how we might deepen it by adopting habits inspired by our smartphone usage.

Always Accessible: Just like our phones are readily available, we can keep our Bibles nearby. Whether it’s in our bags, on our nightstands, or even on our coffee tables, having the Word of God close at hand reminds us to turn to it throughout the day. Consider designating a specific spot for your Bible—a place where you can easily reach for it, just as you would for your phone. This small change can encourage you to engage with the Scriptures more often.
Regular Check-ins: How often do we check our notifications, scroll through social media, or respond to messages? Imagine if we checked our Bibles with that same frequency! Setting aside moments each day—perhaps during lunch breaks, while waiting in line, or before bedtime—to read a verse or two can transform our spiritual lives. You might even consider setting reminders on your phone to prompt you to open your Bible, creating a daily habit of seeking God’s Word.
Seeking Guidance: When we face challenges or tough decisions, we often reach for our phones to search for answers or advice. What if we turned to Scripture first? Instead of Googling our problems, we could seek wisdom in God’s Word. The Bible is full of verses relevant to our struggles, providing comfort, encouragement, and direction. Try keeping a journal to jot down questions or concerns, and then spend time praying and looking up verses that address those issues. Allow the Bible to be your first source of guidance.
Sharing with Others: We frequently share posts, memes, and updates with friends and family. What if we shared verses or insights from our Bibles instead? Encouraging others with Scripture can foster community and uplift those around us. Consider starting a group chat where you share daily verses or thoughts, or simply send a verse to a friend who might be struggling. This not only enriches your own faith but helps build a support system rooted in God’s Word.
Avoiding Distractions: Just as we sometimes put our phones away to focus on important tasks or meaningful conversations, we should create space to engage deeply with our Bibles. Finding a quiet moment to meditate on Scripture can deepen our understanding and relationship with God. Consider setting aside specific times for focused Bible study—free from distractions—where you can immerse yourself in His Word without interruptions.
Staying Updated: We often keep our phones updated with the latest apps and notifications. How can we apply this to our spiritual lives? Regularly reading the Bible allows us to stay updated with God’s teachings and promises. Consider joining a Bible study group or following a reading plan that challenges you and keeps you accountable.

This week, set a goal to treat your Bible like your phone. Carry it with you, check in regularly, and seek its wisdom before turning to other sources. Notice how this practice transforms your daily life and spiritual growth. Reflect on the insights you gain and how they influence your decisions and interactions with others. Embrace the opportunity to deepen your relationship with God through His Word, just as you would with a trusted friend.

“True strength lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we do, fueled by faith and the courage to keep moving forward.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, help me to cherish Your Word as I do my phone. May it be my guide, my source of comfort, and my constant companion. Teach me to seek You in Scripture, to share its truths, and to make time for Your wisdom amidst the distractions of life. Remind me that Your Word is alive and active, ready to speak into my circumstances. Amen.

August 21st 2025 – Fruit of the Spirit – Part 9 of 9

Leave a reply

We are on the last day of a 9-day journey. As we studied this week, Paul listed nine godly virtues that constitute the fruit of God’s Spirit—the inward and outward effects of having the gift of the Holy Spirit dwelling within us. They are “love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.”

Temperance (self-control) – “But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge, to knowledge self-control, to self-control perseverance, to perseverance godliness, to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness love” (2 Peter 1:5-7).

Where the New King James Version has “self-control,” the earlier King James Version used the word “temperance,” which means self-restraint. Today, however, this word usually carries the narrower sense of moderation or, when referring to alcoholic drinks, total abstinence. Therefore, as commonly understood today, temperance is only a small part of self-control.

Another thing to consider is whether the sequential order of the nine godly virtues is significant. The first listed, love, is clearly the most important. Is self-control listed last because it’s the least important? On the contrary, self-control is extremely vital. Paul emphasized it alongside “righteousness … and the judgment to come” (Acts 24:25).

Perhaps self-control is listed last as the capstone—since it takes a lot of self-control to exercise the other eight virtues! It takes a lot of self-control just to “bridle” one’s tongue. Maybe Paul was thinking of love and self-control as the two great bookends of the set.

We all face temptations to sin throughout our lives. When confronted with temptation, we must strive, as far as possible, to get away from it—flee! Even if you think you have a lot of self-control, don’t put it to the test unnecessarily.

Consider some of the things we are told to flee: “Flee” from a “stranger” (a teacher of lies), “flee sexual immorality,” as Joseph had to literally flee (Genesis 39:12), flee from idolatry, flee all kinds of evil, and flee youthful lusts (2 Timothy 2:22).

Jesus said, “The spirit [one’s attitude] indeed is willing, but the flesh [human willpower] is weak” (Matthew 26:41). God will not take away a person’s free will to make choices in life. But as long as you keep inviting Him into your life, He will empower you “to will and to act according to His good purpose” (Philippians 2:13).

As with all of us, your biggest spiritual enemy has likely been yourself. But take heart. With God’s great help, you can conquer this enemy!

“We need self-control to avoid not only outright evil but also too much of the good things.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I come before You in prayer to magnify and glorify Your precious name. Draw close to me, O Heavenly Father. Lead me, guide me, walk beside me, and shape me into who You want me to be. Allow Your will to be done in my life, so I can become a living, breathing testimony. Take control, Jesus; be my strength. Fill me with Your Holy Spirit, Lord. Allow me to display self-control when temptations draw near. Help me to resist whatever comes my way. Make me pure, holy, and true when the enemy tries to intervene. Give me peace in my mind, body, and soul so that I can remain focused on You and Your word daily. Let Your Word be the bread that I crave and long for as much as the air that I breathe. Let lustful desires, anger, guilt, jealousy, sorrow, and pride just fall away at the sound of Your great name. May these things not control my actions, emotions, or thoughts. I continually desire to seek You. Give me the strength to overcome. Continue to grow the Fruits of the Spirit in me. Without You, I cannot go on; I need You. In Jesus’ precious name, Amen.

Living a life without Jesus? Read below.

Life can be overwhelming, filled with moments of joy and times of struggle. In the midst of it all, many of us seek something deeper—a connection that brings peace, purpose, and unconditional love. If you’ve been searching for meaning, I invite you to consider Jesus. He is not just a figure in history; He is our Savior, longing to embrace you with open arms. Recognizing our own imperfections and the weight of our burdens can lead us to a beautiful truth: Jesus offers forgiveness and a new beginning. It doesn’t matter where you’ve been or what you’ve done; His grace is sufficient for all. If you feel a tug on your heart, it may be time to take that step of faith and invite Him into your life.

Salvation Prayer:

Heavenly Father,
I come before You with a humble heart, acknowledging my need for You. I recognize that I am a sinner, and I ask for Your forgiveness. Thank You for sending Your Son, Jesus, to die for my sins and to offer me the gift of eternal life. I believe that He rose again, conquering death and sin.

Jesus, I invite You into my heart today. Be my Lord and Savior. Help me to turn away from my old ways and to follow You in faith. Fill me with Your Holy Spirit, guiding me in my journey of faith. I commit my life to You, trusting in Your love and grace. Thank You for this new beginning. In Your precious name, I pray, Amen.

August 18th 2025 – Fruit of the Spirit – Part 6 of 9

Leave a reply

We are on the 6th day of a 9-day journey to learn about all of the Fruit of the Spirit – the gifts of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control that come from God

Goodness – “Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfill all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power” (2 Thessalonians 1:11). “For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth” (Ephesians 5:9 ).

According to the Bible, badness comes naturally. “Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be.” (Romans 8:7) Goodness does not. But God has a wondrous plan to radically transform our character!

Though our natural inclination is to defy God in sin, He has determined to help us overcome that nature to live a life of righteousness and goodness. This is possible only through a relationship with Him. As the apostle John explained, “He who does good [as a way of life] is of God, but he who does evil [as a way of life] has not seen God [i.e., has not come to really know Him]” (3 John 1:11)

John also explained that those who truly are of God have God living in them through the Holy Spirit: “By this we know that we abide in Him, and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit” (1 John 4:13)

The Paul explained to believers that God’s perfect, loving character is “poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit that has been given to us” (Romans 5:5)

People speak of a life of comfort and affluence as “the good life.” But living a life close to God with all the great benefits He offers is the truly good life! Allow God to cultivate in you the good fruit of goodness. And that will lead to the gift of eternal life! That’s as good as it gets!

You can receive the gift of the Holy Spirit through Jesus Christ. Below is a link with a very special prayer that will help guide you into Jesus’s loving arms. I personally could not imangine a life without Jesus. He truly has saved my life.

“God knows how much we love Him by how much we are showing self-sacrificing love for other people.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, Thank You for ALL that You have given me. Thank You for my friends and Family. I am grateful for Your love, Your mercy and the gift of eternal life through Jesus. Thank You for the blessings of life. Teach me to have a thankful heart and to share this gratefulness with others. Continue to guide me and teach me to develop these spiritual fruits in my life that I can be more like You Lord. Help me exhibit Goodness in all that I do. Protect me from the enemy and his evil schemes. I love You and am so greatful that You are in my life. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

July 31st 2025 – Echoes of Grace

Leave a reply

“But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.” (2 Corinthians 12:9)

In the hustle and bustle of life, it’s easy to forget the gentle whispers of grace that surround us. “Echoes of Grace” invites us to pause and listen to the soft, reassuring calls of God’s grace in our everyday moments.

Grace is not merely a concept; it is an active presence in our lives. It is the quiet assurance that even in our struggles and weaknesses, God’s strength is magnified. Each echo of grace reminds us that we are loved, forgiven, and supported by a God who knows our hearts.

Think of a time when you felt overwhelmed or unworthy. How did God’s grace manifest in that moment? Perhaps it was through a friend’s encouraging words, a sudden moment of peace, or an unexpected blessing. These are the echoes of grace that remind us we are never alone.

Spend a few moments in silence, reflecting on the echoes of grace you have experienced. Write them down or share them with someone who might need to hear about God’s grace in action.

This week, look for opportunities to be an echo of grace in someone else’s life. Offer a kind word, lend a helping hand, or simply be present for someone in need. Let your actions reflect the grace you have received from God.

“Grace is the gentle whisper that assures us we are never alone, even in our moments of greatest weakness.”

Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You for the grace that flows through my life. Help me to recognize and appreciate the echoes of Your love and strength in my weaknesses. May I become a vessel of Your grace to others, sharing the hope and comfort I have received. In Jesus’s name, Amen.

July 25th 2025 – The Purpose of a Compass?

Leave a reply

“..the Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey Him.” (Acts 5:32)

The purpose of a compass extends beyond merely indicating our location when we feel lost; it serves as a vital guide, directing us along the path we need to take. A compass becomes ineffective if we do not heed its direction.

In the Gospels, Jesus introduces the apostles to the Holy Spirit, promising that He will guide them into all truth. He refers to the Holy Spirit as the “Paraclete,” a term meaning “One who comes alongside us, attaching Himself to us for the purpose of assisting us.” Jesus assures them that if they love Him and keep His commandments, He will ask the Father to send them the Holy Spirit (John 14:15-16).

Many believers overlook this crucial aspect. While the key word for embracing salvation is “Believe,” the essential word for cultivating a relationship with God through the Holy Spirit is “Obey.”

In a beautifully simple hymn, the sentiment is expressed: “But we never can prove the delights of His love until all on the altar we lay. For the favor He shows and the joy He gives are for them who will trust and obey. Trust and obey for there’s no other way to be happy in Jesus but to trust and obey.”

Jesus encapsulates this call in a powerful invitation: “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.” (Matthew 4:19) This makes the final point on our compass the most critical of all.

Are you willing to comply with what your compass reveals?

“Make the time to listen to His good direction through the Holy Spirit.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I come before You with an open heart, yearning for Your guidance. Open my eyes to see the areas in my life where I need to ask the hard questions and confront the truths that may challenge me. Grant me understanding on how to embody the Truth I profess, and shower me with Your grace when I falter. Fill me with Your Holy Spirit so that my life reflects Your love and purpose.

Today, I choose to prioritize listening to Your gentle voice within me. I acknowledge that You desire for me to hear You clearly. Help me carve out moments of stillness and quiet in my busy life, so I can attune my heart to Your whispers.

Lord, I open my heart for an honest conversation with You, seeking clarity, peace, and guidance for my journey ahead. I trust in Your plans for me and commit to following where You lead, knowing that Your way is the path to true fulfillment. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.

July 24th 2025 – Look To Jesus And Believe

Leave a reply

“Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith…” (Hebrews 12:2)

In the first church I attended, we often sang an old hymn that resonates deeply with me: “Look to Jesus and believe, look to Jesus and receive.” How true this is! When we set our sights on Jesus and place our trust in Him, everything begins to fall into place. My desire is for my life to reflect Him, much like a mirror reflects our image.

This scripture reminds us to focus on Jesus, the One who initiated the work within us and the One who will see it through to completion. The Bible expresses it beautifully: “…fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith.” I find comfort in this; my role is simply to keep my eyes on Him, allowing Him to handle the rest. He began this work in my life long ago, and whether you’ve known Him for years or just a few days, it’s reassuring to know that He is committed to perfecting the work within us.

I often say, “It’s all about Jesus.” When I step aside and let Him reign as Lord and King of my life, everything seems to align. Conversely, when I place myself on the throne, that’s when chaos ensues. After all, He created us, and He is more than capable of finishing the good work He started.

Today, take heart. Your life is in the palm of His mighty hand, and He will not let you down. What a relief to know that He began this journey with you and will bring it to a perfect conclusion. Isn’t that a wonderful promise?

“God proved His love on the Cross. When Christ hung, and bled, and died, it was God saying to the world, ‘I Love You.’”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, today I come before You with a heart full of gratitude. I am encouraged, for I know that what You have started in my life, You will bring to completion. This journey is not about my strength or ability; it’s about You, Jesus, shining through me by the power of the Holy Spirit. Help me to keep my focus fixed on You, trusting that You cannot fail. As I navigate the challenges of life, may I always remember that my hope is anchored in You. Thank You for loving me so deeply that You gave Your life for me. In Your precious name, I pray, Amen.

July 20th 2025 – Testimony of Life

Leave a reply

“And when Baal-Hanan died, Hadad reigned in his place; and the name of his city was Pai. His wife’s name was Mehetabel the daughter of Matred, the daughter of Mezahab. Hadad died also. And the chiefs of Edom were Chief Timnah, Chief Aliah, Chief Jetheth, Chief Aholibamah, Chief Elah, Chief Pinon, Chief Kenaz, Chief Teman, Chief Mibzar, Chief Magdiel, and Chief Iram. These were the chiefs of Edom.” (1 Chronicles 1:50-54)

Remembering where you came from and where you are going makes up your individual, one-of-a-kind testimony. There is power in the testimony of your life. Revelation 12 talks about believers overcoming by the blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony. So, what if your past does not include the seedier things of life? Well, the Bible is clear that we we were all on a death row sentence. Jesus died on the cross for our sins. Through His grace and the faith-gift of God, He saves us. Once saved you are a child of God – a priest and a king. There are two people in the Bible who are called both a priest and king – Jesus and you. Now, you are saved and will spend eternity with God.

In a world that is wracked with fear and uncertainty, people need to hear your testimony. Share it and talk about it. Share not in a prideful or bragging way, but out of the joy of your heart. Your testimony could be the very thing that leads someone else to come to Jesus. It might be what they have been waiting for.

“Remember where you came from, who you are and where you are going.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, We love You and Praise You in all circumstances. Thank You for the gift of Your Son. I am so grateful for the grace and mercy You have given me. Lord, I want to be a vessel used to glorify Your name. Give me the boldness to share my testimony without fear and uncertainty. Give me the spirit of humility so that I may be used to minister in the lives of others. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Don’t go through life without Jesus. If you do not know Him personally, accept the greatest gift you could possible ever receive. I encourage you not to pass up the precious gift of His love and eternal life. Jesus died on the cross for you and me. He loves us and wants to help us.
