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 …
The Desire of The Bridegroom
When we finally enter glory with our Beloved God, Jesus, He will be excited to see us! Jesus will not look upon us with disdain or discouragement, nor with any negativity. When we, as God promises, "shall see His face," there will be great joy in heaven. Zephaniah tells us, "The LORD thy God in …

Grace From Birth
Whether we know it or not, we have been resting upon The LORD since birth. Since we have came out of the womb, we have been resting upon His grace and mercy. Without God's mercy, and without His help, all men are doomed. There is always grace at work, always mercy, though some do not …
