Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand.

Giving and Serving
on April 30th, 2024
For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. (2 Corinthians 5:14) I love the story of Hudson Taylor when he was interviewing possible candidates for missionary work.

"For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God." - Ephesians 2:8It’s sad how so many people in our world today have misunderstood salvation, thinking it is a gradual process or something achieved through our own good deeds. But true salvation happens in a singular, transformative moment. It's not about being baptized, attending church, or bei... Read More

God Has a Plan for Your Life
on April 26th, 2024
Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand. (Proverbs 19:21) God has a plan for your life, no matter how you have botched it in the past.

Jesus said, “Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father. Go instead to my brothers and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’” Mary Magdalene went to the disciples with the news: “I have seen the Lord!” And she told them that he had said these things to her.

Powerful Prayers and a Burden
on April 23rd, 2024
Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective. Elijah was a human being, even as we are. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years. (James 5:16-17) Have you ever listened to someone pray and thought, “Wow, that was a power-packed p... Read More
