    Those Who Seek to Destroy My Life

    “O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water. So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary, beholding your power and glory. Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips...

    But the Fruit of the Spirit is

    “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.

Mike has a gift for drawing us in with humor, and surprising us with sudden, profound sentences to really make...

    Lent before Easter

    Tension/release. It’s a pattern we see in every song, every story, every area of life.

    I was in despair, "how can I be saved, once and for all?" then I saw Heavenly Word:

    Hi there, I was in despair, saying to myself "how can I be saved, once and for all?" because it seemed that there was no end to my sin - only more repentance, without end... and I saw this Heavenly Word on the images page of a search for immutable mercy: ...and I realised, it is actually an...

    Help me understand something the Lord taught me: "joy is in the doing through surrendering"

    Hi there, So this is like a fragment, of something the Holy Spirit inspired me with and I wonder what you make of it: It is a little similar to "my strength is made perfect through weakness" found in the letters, but the emphasis is on "building" (rather than "making"). It is about building...

    Romans 14:17 For the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. If you met someone who is a picture of healthy living by diet and exercise, you would not by outward appearance think “now this a child of God”. If you met someone who is...

    Christmas Tree Lights

    In the Time of Christ, there was no electricity. There were no hardware stores where you could go and purchase lumber.
