To bring Jesus Christ more glory, affection, and devotion through the clear revelation of His Word.
Clearing vines and plants that had taken over a fence for an elderly Christian woman. While clearing the plants from out of the fence, we found it was also holding roses. The roses remind me of a few things. One of those is the affliction in our lives that is a result of sin. The …
Weeding and trimming bushes for an elderly couple. As I was trimming bushes, I had to be precise/careful, as to not cut off any flowers. Because of this, I did not use hedge trimmers and was able to find a small bird in the bush. The bird was kept safe by God, for in The …
Psalms 46 begins with, in my opinion, one of the most comforting truths in scripture. That our God is a safe place for us to flee to, finding refuge; a protection/strength; and an exceedingly near aid in time of distress. "God is [our] protection/defence/refuge, an exceedingly present help in trouble." [Psa 46:1] These three aspects …
God is our refuge, He is the one to whom we flee when trouble of any degree arises. He is the one who is always ready and available for us, and He desires us to take advantage of this. The LORD, YHWH, our Father, is, as David says, "[our] protection/defence/refuge, an exceedingly present help in …

One of the greatest promises that we have been given by The Lord is forgiveness. What an immeasurable debt we owe God; and yet, because Jesus paid the due punishment for our sins, He doesn't require payment from us. What glorious freedom is in Christ Jesus for those who take refuge under His wings from …
The LORD delivers us out of all afflictions. We can be confident that The LORD will save us from our troubles and afflictions. We only need to trust in Him, fear Him, cry out to Him. It may not be immediate, it may only come with death, but The LORD will be faithful to His …
When we look to The LORD our faces are lightened. They are lit up, we are made to rejoice/be glad. When we behold Jesus Christ, our faces are lightened. We must look at Jesus more often and we will be made glad more often! You will not be filled with sorrow, nor disappointed, nor put …
