How quickly can we turn from God to self? Many days I cringe when writing out these affirmations because of the focus on “I”. One of the basics of “affirmations” is to claim these things in the first person so we take ownership and believe and personalize these character traits of God. However today, as I began to read the scriptures this ... Continue Reading »

In John 19:30 we are told: So when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished!” And bowing His head, He gave up His spirit. (NKJ) Jesus died for our sins. He said it is finished. Then He bowed His head and gave up His spirit. We find it hard to give up our ... Continue Reading »
Affirmation of God: I turn to the LORD with all of my heart.
Searching for affirmations this morning in Joel chapter 2 I feel much like Simon Peter must have felt in John 6: 68-69 But Simon Peter answered Him, "Lord, to whom shall we go?
