1 John 3:18—”My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth.” In today’s world, it is sometimes difficult to like some people around us. Maybe we get annoyed with the vegetable vendor who dumps their garbage beside the road? The old man down the street who […]

Romans 8:35—”Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword.

Psalm 34:1—”I will bless the LORD at all times; his praise shall continually be in my mouth.” This is what David said when he changed his behavior before Abimelech so that he drove him out and he went away. David knew who His God was. He wrote songs of praise and poured his heart out […]
Job 32:8-9—”But it is the spirit in a person, the breath of the Almighty, that gives them understanding. 9 It is not only the old[c] who are wise, not only the aged who understand what is right.” It is commonly spoken that ‘with age comes wisdom’. The thinking is that age, the x number, brings […]
