For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is going to be revealed to us.
God’s Ways Vindicated
Today's blog post (and my return from an extended hiatus) is a bit different than what i've posted thus far. Instead of being a personal post, it is rather a glimpse into how i work through a Psalm. i've been working through the Psalms for the better part of a year now. The fact that … Continue reading God’s Ways Vindicated

Psalm 56 – A call for God’s Protection

Because our pastor read both Luke 2 and 1 Samuel 16 in tandem throughout his … Continue reading Jesus, the Son of David

When life is hard and the waves begin to pull us under, when our own doubts and insecurities keep us from walking in the victory Christ has won for us, when the stresses … Continue reading Faithful, Generous Deliverer!
