They’ve Trampled Underfoot the Son of God
“For if we go on sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a fearful expectation of judgment, and a fury of fire that will consume the adversaries. Anyone who has set aside the law of Moses dies without mercy on the evidence of two … Continue reading They’ve Trampled Underfoot the Son of God
When There’s No Hiding Place
“And when he got into the boat, his disciples followed him. And behold, there arose a great storm on the sea, so that the boat was being swamped by the waves; but he was asleep. And they went and woke him, saying, ‘Save us, Lord; we are perishing.’ And he said to them, ‘Why are … Continue reading When There’s No Hiding Place
He Trains Our Hands for Battle

Abusers and The Abused
Psalms 62:3-4 ESV “How long will all of you attack a manto batter him,like a leaning wall, a tottering fence?They only plan to thrust him down from his high position.They take pleasure in falsehood.They bless with their mouths,but inwardly they curse.

The Abused
Abuse is not a subject limited to spousal or parental physical abuse. It covers a vast array of ways in which people are being abused (hurt, taken advantage of, lied to) every day. And not everything is as it appears on the surface. We don't always know what other people are going through every day … Continue reading The Abused
Greatly Have They Afflicted Me
“’Greatly have they afflicted me from my youth’—let Israel now say—‘Greatly have they afflicted me from my youth,yet they have not prevailed against me.The plowers plowed upon my back;they made long their furrows.’The Lord is righteous;he has cut the cords of the wicked.May all who hate Zionbe put to shame and turned backward!” (Psalms 129:1-5 … Continue reading Greatly Have They Afflicted Me
Dear 15 Year Old Me
The Date was November 1, 2018, and I was invited by a fellow blogger to participate in one of those “tags” where you were asked questions to answer and then you were to tag other people to do the same.
