Sunday Morning Always Comes-Mercy

I woke up this morning with a smile on my face as I remembered that God’s mercies are new every morning. Yes, friend- the mess I made yesterday, the unkind words that flew out of my mouth, or the lack of time spent with God are yesterday’s mess. Today God...

Oprah’s Courage or God’s?…{when I grow up}

This week we will be examining “who we are living our life for” and the question “Am I living for myself, for others, for God-where is my focus and from whom or what do I get the fulfillment that proves I am living the life I want?” Each week,...
