Knowing Christ Through Suffering
KNOWING CHRIST THROUGH SUFFERING “Even more, I consider everything to be nothing compared to knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. To know Him is the best thing of all. Because of Him I have lost everything. But I consider all of it to be garbage, so I can get to know Christ. I want to […]
When THE FACE Comes Off
There is a saying that is referred to as, “Putting ON FACE.” It’s a new millennial phrase that refers to the ability to pretend or make sure what others see on the outside is the made-up, happy, best version of ourselves and of our lives. I believe it’s a phrase that has become a toxic epidemic […]

FORGIVENESS
Forgiveness is a divine act that cannot be performed using worldly thinking. It is the incomprehensible nature of God. Therefore, we must have His mind and thought process as our guide.
