Live By Faith
June 15, 2019 I am reading Mark chapter 5 right now. There is a lot in this chapter and so much to talk about. Jesus is a miracle worker. He is the great healer and all we need to do is just believe. When Jesus speaks in verse 36 he is telling Jarius and theContinue reading “Live By Faith”
Take off Your Grave Clothes
June 15, 2019 John 11 is such a great chapter showing the love Jesus has for all of us.

Psalm 51
June 10, 2019 “For you do not desire sacrifice, or else I would give it; You do not delight in burnt offering. The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, a broken and contrite heart.

1 Peter 2
June 9, 2019 Today I am reading 1 Peter 2. The scripture opens up telling us to rid ourselves of malice, deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and slander of every kind.
