“Our Father holds the purse-strings, and what we lose for his sake he can repay a thousand-fold.

Looking Backwards? Feel stuck in your past? I totally understand that feeling! We have to intentionally look away from the things that draw us to the past and look to God. What do we know about the past? What has God told us? He forgives us (1 John 1:9). His mercy is new every day. […]
Matthew 28: 5-10 Then the angel spoke to the women. “Don’t be afraid!” he said. “I know you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He isn’t here! He is risen from the dead, just as he said would happen. Come, see where his body was lying. And now, go quickly and tell his disciples […]

I love that in the personal devotion book, The Bridegroom’s Voice, you will walk and listen up for four weeks with God, learning and growing in His Word. And then on the 5th week, you will have a “Selah” where you look back with “heavenly hindsight” at what you have learned and how you can […]
