    Even Though I Walk Through a Dark Valley

    Dropped Off

    Mohembo leaned over and kissed his wife goodbye before he got out of the car, took his suitcase out of the trunk and walked into the international departures terminal at the airport. Parking was a headache and an expensive one at that. She would drive straight back home, stopping only at the...

    Not Ever Forsaken

    Love One Another Hebrews 13:1-3 NIV Keep on loving one another as brothers and sisters. Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it. Continue to remember those in prison as if you were together with them in...

    Arise and Shine

    Sunday, April 2, 2017, 5:55 a.m. – The Lord Jesus put in mind the song “Be Strong and Take Courage.” Speak, Lord, your words to my heart. I read Isaiah 60 (Select vv. NASB).
