“I Will Trust You”

Like many of us, there is situation in my life that I desperately want to change. As a result, my mind takes me down a variety of routes to find hope for it to work out or be different. Each time, I come up with the same answer: a dead end. I have sought the Lord [...]

Do The Christian Thing

My aunt is struggling with a comment that someone said to her, “Let’s make sure we do the Christian thing in this situation.” In frustration and confusion, she said to my mom, “What does that mean?” I do not know all the details of their situation but I have thought about this statement a lot.

We are doing our 6th Annual Summer Study on the book of Ezra. So I am spending a lot of time studying the book. I am familiar with this book because my life verse is Ezra 7:10 but having a bird’s eye view has given me a different perspective. I didn’t realize that Ezra and Nehemiah [...]
