The B-I-B-L-E
Who is God? What does He do? Where did He come from? Why does He love us? Will I ever see Him? Questions like these can be found in book that God wrote, the Bible. If we want to know and understand God we have to read His book and get to know the author of this amazing gift. D.L. Moody observed, “The Bible was not given to increase our knowledge but to change our lives.” God’s Holy Word is, indeed, a life-changing, one of a-kind treasure! Do you know that when we memorized God’s Word, we not only learn about Him but God will help us to do the right thing when we ...

The Smile of God
Jacob said, “For what a relief it is to see your friendly smile. It is like seeing the smile of God!”
Genesis 33:10 NLT
Do you need a little cheering up? If so, try cheering someone else up! Stop thinking about our own sadness or problems and set your mind on finding someone around you that needs some cheering up. When we cheer up others we will discover that is a wonderful way to cheer ourselves up, too!
The Word of God tells us that a cheerful heart is like medicine: it makes us feel better. So where does cheerfulness begin? It begins in the heart; it ...
Behold I Will Do a New Thing
