Bible Verses: Mark 10: 13-16 When Jesus saw what was happening, he was angry with his disciples. He said to them, “Let the children come to me. Don’t stop them!

Stewardship
It’s time to think about what we are doing with all the resources God has provided at our disposal. Are we using them for His glory?
God Will Take Care Of You
So, I went for a prayer meeting the other day. Before that, it had been a while since I attended any form of organised worship. Just too much has been going on. I craved, needed fellowship and it was super convenient when I realised that this prayer meeting was only a 5 -minute drive away….
Peace
27 Peace I leave with you; My [perfect] peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your heart be troubled, nor let it be afraid. [Let My perfect peace calm you in every circumstance and give you courage and strength for every challenge.] (John 14:27, AMP) I had a…

(Hebrews 4:15, AMP) What an awesome verse! I remember some of our arguments as a newly wed…
The Quiet Place
. . . . He leads me beside the still and quiet waters. (Psalm 23:3b, Amplified Version) Thank you Lord for ordering my steps to the quiet place today. For luring me away from noise and endless activity to the place where I can hear the still small voice. It has been a while, and…
More than Money
Luke 5: 1-11 11 So they pulled their boats up on shore, left everything and followed him. (Luke 5:11, NIV) Material wealth is just about the least of what God can do with your life if you let Him. Don’t get too hung up on it even though it is relevant. We all want our needs…
