I thought I would share the following, not in hope that you might agree with me, but in hope that you might search out your own answers.

When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to shout, Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me! Imagine yours...

What Love Does | Struck By Grace

August 15, 2013. What did you see in me? How did you know? I have been waiting for this day for many years. A milestone, my own personal Ebenezer. For you surely have been good to me. 20 years ago you broke my heart. You showed me who I was, what I had done, and most importantly that you loved me despite and not because. How did you know how much I needed that? It exposed everything, meant everything, and changed everything in my life. Anyone’s heart. No exceptions. Not one. Another chance to see you wor...

Newer posts →. The Bible’s Sweeping Promises About Prayer. February 8, 2011. Thought I would share some wisdom from. One of my favorite authors, Philip Yancey and his book Prayer – Does It Make Any Difference? What do with do with unanswered prayer? While the scriptures paint a very positive picture of what should be a beautiful relationship with God through prayer, many of us have come far short of realizing these promises and have gradually begun to question the nature and purpose of prayer. I tell you...

What Do You Want From Me? What Love Does →. August 7, 2012. Lord, where are you – just when I needed you most? I have been praying, I have been pleading and I can’t seem to draw you out of your hidden places. Have I done something to displease you, do the sins of my past still separate me from you? And so goes the questioning, and God remains silent. So I turn to scripture, and I see familiar stories, familiar characters, but nothing that helps me today. Lord, have you turned your face from me? It’...

It became a family past time to discuss theories and answer trivia each night at dinner. Great times! True, J.K. Rowling weaves a masterful story. True, the. While the mo...
