A Journey to Seeing Yourself Through the Eyes of Jesus
Living up to Your High Ranking
God has called you to be his child. You have been adopted into the family of God. God has created you with special abilities and will ask you to do things only you can do. Maybe you are gifted in flower arranging. God will partner with you as you use your gift...
How People are a Witness to Angels
I have been a Christian for most of my life. The longer I walk on this journey of learning who God is, the more I realize I will never know everything there is to know about God. I believe we will be learning more about who God is for all eternity. It won’t matter how...
What Does Being a Submissive Wife Look Like
What does it mean to be a submissive wife? We read in Ephesians 5 that wives are to submit to their husbands. What does that mean? How does that look in a practical sense? Does it mean the husband is supposed to make all the decisions, and the wife silently agrees?...
Are You a Sheep or a Lamb; What’s the Difference

God Uses Ordinary People to do Extraordinary Things
Do you ever read the Bible and think, It would be so awesome to be used by God like David or Mary or any of the other Bible heroes? How often do you find yourself saying, “I could never be used like that because I’m just (fill in the blank with your name)”? Do you...
I am God’s Masterpiece and so are You
